Theatrix, the UNL student producing organization, presents their second and final production of the fall season, Terrence McNally's Corpus Christi. Beginning Dec. 1 in The Studio Theatre at the Temple Building, Corpus Christi is the story of Joshua, a Christ-like figure born in Corpus Christi, Texas, whose message of love and tolerance will change the lives of 12 men and the world.

Scorned because he is a homosexual, Joshua escapes his home and sets out on a journey spanning three decades and 2,005 years of forgiveness and brotherhood; culminating with the greatest sacrifice of all time.

Performances are at 7:30 p.m. Dec. 1 and 7:30 and 10:30 p.m. on Dec. 2 and 3, and at 2 p.m. Dec. 4.
