Hitler on the Roof: A Play for Two Clowns

The Akvavit Theatre Company of Chicago will perform "Hitler on the Roof: A Play for Two Clowns."

Performances are free; seating is limited. A second performance will be offered at 7:30 p.m. April 20 here.

The performances are sponsored by the departments of Scandinavian studies and theatre arts at Augustana, and funded by the Marianne and Marcus Wallenberg Foundation.
