DAYTON, Ohio, October 27, 1987--The Negro Ensemble Company will present

Trevor Rhone's spicy West Indian comedy Two Can Play Monday, November 9, at 8

p.m. in Kennedy Union Boll as part of the University of Dayton Arts

Series.

Described by the Times as "a boisterous farce guaranteed to make

theatregoers cheer," the play concerns a couple's madcap schemes to leave

riot-torn Jamaica for the good life of Miami Beach. Although nothing goes

exactly as planned, their adventures bring them to a deeper understanding of

each other, and the play's conclusion is as touching as it is funny.

The Negro Ensemble Company is a not-for-profit corporation that is

partially funded by the National Endowment for the Arts and the New York State

Council on the Arts. Since 1979 the company has annually devoted a portion of

its season to touring its best new work to communities of all sizes throughout

the country.

The UD appearance of the Negro Ensemble Company is supported in part by

Arts Midwest and the Ohio Arts Council.

Tickets for Two Can Play may be purchased in advance or at the door.

Tickets are $3 for UD students; $5 for UD faculty, staff, and alumni; and $6

for the general public. Call the UD Arts Series at 229-2347 for more

information.
