"King James" Oberlin Night at the Theatre

Join DC Oberlin alumni for an evening performance of King James at the Round House Theatre in Bethesda!

ABOUT THE PLAY:
At first glance, Shawn and Matt couldn’t be more different. However, when they discover they are both diehard Cleveland Cavaliers fans, they quickly form a close bond over their shared love of basketball—and the breathtaking talents of NBA star LeBron James. Over the course of many years, their relationship ebbs and flows with the fortunes of their beloved team. The New York Times wrote that this witty and energetic comedy is a “wonderfully daring, imaginative, and compassionate” celebration of the enduring power of sports fandom and unexpected friendships. The play was written by Pulitzer Prize finalist Rajiv Joseph (Bengal Tiger at the Baghdad Zoo).

TICKET INFORMATION:
The cost for a group of 10 or more will be $45 per ticket. Please email Lucie Austin ’79 at lucieaustin@verizon.net for information and indicate how many tickets you would like to reserve no later than May 10, 2025. Lucie will make arrangements to secure a block of tickets for the Oberlin group once the group threshold has been met.
