Throughout our life experiences we rely on our courage to venture, persevere, and withstand danger, fear or difficulty. This season AU Theatre will tell three courageous stories in different styles (drama, comedy, musical) and set in varying time periods and places. Although they differ from each other in many ways, the stories and messages are timeless and universal.
