by Ken Ludwig

A Mainstage Comedy

Directed by Miguel E. Rodriguez

August 14th - 30th, 2026

The Ivy League will never be the same as a pair of screwball deities encounters the carnal complexity of college coeds, campus capers, and conspicuous consumption.

Daphne and Ralph are young classics professors who have just made a discovery that's sure to turn them into academic superstars. But something goes disastrously wrong, and Daphne cries out in a panic, "Save me, gods of ancient Greece!"...and the gods actually appear!

Presented with the support of the Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners.
