Theater at Case Western Reserve University presents one more week of performances of Top Girls by Caryl Churchill. The second week of shows run February 23, 24 and 25 at 8 p.m., with a Sunday matinee on February26 at 2:30 p.m. Eldred Theater is located at 2070 Adelbert Rd., on the Case Quad behind Millis Science Center.

Set in Thatcherite Britain, this play is the story of Marlene, a strong, successful career woman who finds herself doubting her past choices. Churchill’s ground-breaking play explores the struggles that women have had since entering the industrial age workforce: can you have a career and a family?

The eight-member undergraduate ensemble cast is directed by Catherine Albers, professor for the department of theater at CWRU. The design team for the production includes scenic design by Jill Davis, lighting design by Joseph Burke, costume design by Angelina Herin and sound design by Jason Kuster.

General admission is $10, with discounted prices of $7 for adults over 60 and Case personnel, and $5 for students. For ticket reservations or information, call the box office for the department of theater and dance at 216-368-6262.
