Masquers Resolve Mysterious Proof Offer 3 Performances of David Auburn's Suspenseful Mystery Proof This Fall, the AASU Masquers troupe opens its season by reprising Auburn's suspenseful drama Proof for those AASU students, faculty, and members of the Savannah arts community who were unable to attend AMT's Summer production of the same play in July. The troupe presents three performances Friday, August 22nd at 7:30 p.m., Saturday, August 23rd at 7:30 p.m., and Sunday, August 24th at 3 p.m. The Masquers present these performances in the cozy setting of AASU's Masquers Chinese Theater (MCT) at Armstrong Center.

The Masquers Chinese Theater (MCT), located in Armstrong Center (13040 Abercorn Street, Savannah 31419), has served as the temporary home for the Masquers, AASUs student theatre troupe, for eight months now and will continue to host AASU theatre performances until renovation of Jenkins Hall, AASU AMT's permanent theatre home, is complete this coming fall. As homage to the famous Hollywood Boulevard movie theatre known for red carpet events, "A-list" celebrity sidewalk hand prints, and a spectacular Chinese architecture exterior design, the theatre program has converted a vacated Chinese Buffet Restaurant into a welcoming black box theatre environment.
