Mar 29 Friday
The Las Cruces Community Theatre presents the smart comedy, Discord: The Gospel According to Thomas Jefferson, Charles Dickens, and Count Leo Tolstoy, March 29 through April 14. Thomas Jefferson, Charles Dickens, and Count Leo Tolstoy all walk into a room. The last thing they remember was the moment they died, and now they’re all stuck in a room together. With limited information about each other, the three famed GOSPELISTS argue who was right about their theories about Jesus of Nazareth, the New Testament, and more, all the while hurling insults and quips at each other. Scott Carter’s dry-comedy depicts Jefferson, Dickens, and Tolstoy not as philosophers–but merely as men needing to be heard.

Stephan’s work comes from a sense of place or more accurately, places. Gleaming both inspirations as well as surface found material of his region. He considers himself a "Regionalist just as the Canadian "Group of Seven" or even Emily Carr or Georgia O’Keefe did. Northern Minnesota is where it first began and he now continues in the open High Mesa and High Desert of Southwest New Mexico near Silver City. These places not only have been the source of the materials in much of the work but also seem to sustain a creative and spiritual roadmap.
