The San Antonio College Fine Arts Program presents Looking for Normal. Looking for Normal follows Roy and Irma, an Ohio couple that has been married for 25 years. Roy and Irma go to marriage counseling with their pastor, Reverend Muncie. During a session, Roy confesses that he is a woman trapped in a man’s body and wants a sex change. Looking for Normal explores the themes of marriage, family, and acceptance.
This is the first play at San Antonio College since February of 2020. Due to COVID-19, the drama department was unable to put on a show as the campus was closed. The Director, Michael Doggett, started at SAC as Theatre Coordinator in the Fall of 2019.
