    Performance and Time Arts is now selling advanced, discounted tickets for their March 8th and 9th show, which among other great acts will include the first sneak peek of NANOWorks’ latest production, a scene from Jennifer Jolley and Kendall A’s “The Bubble”.

    Starring tenors Dashiell Waterbury as The Dean, M. Andrew Jones as The Banker, and dancer Karen Wissell as The Ditz, the Bubble portrays a bright-eyed college coed who stumbles into the perils of the early 2000′s real estate boom. The scene for the PTA performance will set the stage for the story, as The Ditz arrives at Olive University with little more than an acceptance letter. How will she pay for her education? Where will she live? Will The Dean and The Banker be able to help her out of such a precarious predicament? Of course! Everything’s peachy while in “The Bubble.”
