Boston Center for American Performance and Boston Playwrights’ Theatre present, EXPOSED: A BU New Play InitiativeProduction, by Robert Brustein |Directed by Steven Bogart | December 10-18 | When Texas billionaire Seymour Sackeroff is in need of some forgiveness, he goes straight to God’s right hand—Dick Cockburn, the Christian televangelist who talks to the Lord on a regular basis—or so he says.  But when Cockburn comes to roost in Seymour’s mansion, all Hell breaks loose. A play with music and rhythm from the author of King of Second Avenue and the Shakespeare Trilogy (The English Channel, Mortal Terror, The Last Will), Exposed takes a ferociously sardonic wink through the lens of Molière’s Tartuffe to lambast contemporary America, the Right, the Left, the NRA, AIPAC, and greed in all its guises. Running Time: 90 minutes $30 general public | $25 seniors and groups of 10+, WGBH and WBUR members, and Huntington subscribers | $20 TheatreMania E-Blast and Dramatist Guild Members | $15 with CFA Membership | $10 students | Free with BU ID, at the door, day of performance, subject to availability | bostontheatrescene.com | 617-933-8600
