THEATER | 2004: An Election Year Odyssey

The drama follows the story of a young, undecided voter as he visits the lighthearted past, sectarian present and grim future of voting in America. Only the Adams House Drama Society could give us something this original and unorthodox. Friday, Saturday 7 p.m., 9:30 p.m. $4 students, $3 Adams House residents. Adams House Pool Theatre (13 Bow Street). (MAB)
