The University of Saint Francis (USF) Jesters will present their annual spring performance on March 9 at 6 p.m. and March 10 at 3 p.m. in the North Campus auditorium at 2702 Spring Street. The Jesters program and this year’s performance are supported by a grant from the AWS Foundation.

The show, “And Then,” uses original poetry, instrumental and voice music, puppets, the stories of ancient Chinese philosopher Zhuangzi, tangrams, dance/movement and the art of Claude Monet to explore stories of change and transformation. The Jesters’ personal stories will be integrated into the show through the use of playback theatre. Tickets are $10 and are available beginning this month. Call the School of Creative Arts (SOCA) at (260) 399-7700, ext. 8001 for information.

Jesters is a performing arts group comprised of 50 teens and adults with special needs.. The Jesters program was founded at USF in 1978 with the purpose of enhancing the quality of life for people with disabilities by engaging them in recreational opportunities to promote creative expression and positive social interaction.
