Dark Meets Light

Director Penny Kline updates Jean-Paul Sartre’s surreal drama No Exit. Here, more current characters and up-to-date dialogue result in a captivating and suspenseful drama that’s still as thought-provoking as the original. The six-member cast works as a cohesive, talented team, and the small studio theater space is painted a glaring white, which presents a stark backdrop that captures the nothingness of eternity. F, Sa 8pm; Su 2pm. Through 4/28. $15-$18. Ovation Stage at the Three Penny Theatre in the R25 Arts Complex, 1723 25th St.; (916) 448-0312; www.ovationstage.com.
