PSU Theater and Theatre 33 host the pre-season performances of the Theatre 33 Summer Festival.

Join us for a staged reading of Proper: A Steampunk Comedy of Manners by Angelo Gyurko.

In this delightfully twisted Victorian romp, a brilliant widow and her partner-in-science carry out their inventing shenanigans behind closed doors - until a dashing fortune-hunter crashes their carefully ordered world. He's after her late husband's papers and thinks marriage might be his ticket to riches. Poor fellow has no idea he's just challenged the most dangerous inventor in Port Brassington to a battle of wits!
