Directed by Kevin T. Houle
— Director of LPT's 2010 production of Don't Drink the Water.

Written by Larry Shue, author of "The Foreigner".

Goofiness takes center stage in this side-splitting comedy!

In 1979 Willum Gilbert has it all: a promising career as an architect, devoted friends, even, maybe, a serious girlfriend. But then Rick Steadman, the ultimate social misfit, comes to visit and puts everything in peril. The Nerd escalates into a madcap farce as the “nerd” outstays his welcome and turns Willum’s life topsy-turvy

Tickets: $20 Regular, $18 Senior/Student
