Theatrix, the student-run theatre company in the Johnny Carson School of Theatre and Film, presents Topher Payne’s “Perfect Arrangement.”

Performances are 7:30 p.m. Nov. 3-4 and 2 p.m. Nov. 6 in the Lab Theatre, which is located on the third floor of the Temple Building, 12th and R streets on the University of Nebraska-Lincoln city campus.

Tickets are $7 general admission and $5 students and available online only.

Inspired by the true story of the earliest stirrings of the gay rights movement, “Perfect Arrangement” merges madcap sitcom-style laughs with provocative drama as two closeted U.S. State Department employees struggle to maintain their cover—and their sanity—in 1950s America.
