ROYAL OAK, MI — Love theater? Then you don't want to miss this new production at Oakland Community College.

A collection of dark, heartbreaking, funny one-act plays will be featured in OCC’s Theatre Program production, “Love Hate and Other Oddities(Again)” at the College’s Royal Oak campus theatre Nov. 8, 9, 14, 15 and 16.

“We are delighted to present this production to our community. This is a collection of wonderfully theatrical pieces that rarely see the stage, not because of quality but because of length and content,” said Dennis North, OCC theatre program director. “The material is creatively eclectic, adult and challenging, and we thought it was about time they saw the theatrical light of day.”
