UC San Diego presents
Cornerstone
October
By David Jacobi
Directed by Sarah Wansley
30 person capacity
Run Time: 30 minutes
Cornerstone is a short play in which the audience becomes engineers working at The Central Facilities Plant located at the Center of Civilization. Supplying the world’s heat, water, electricity, and breathable air is a difficult job, so one shouldn’t be distracted by those three workers having a heated discussion on their lunch break about labor, sandwich construction and metaphysics.

Walking Travel Time from Festival Village: 4 minutes
