“Run for the Exit” at Theatre Baton Rouge

Making its stage debut, this comedy written and directed by Dr. Terry Byars is full of shenanigans led by three zany ladies of history: Auntie Victoire, Carrie Nation, and Mary Tod Lincoln. Riotous and elaborate, the story is presented as a staged reading, with three one-act performances tied together by Byars (as Dr. Theodosius Pimlico-Poe)’s narration. 7:30 pm Friday and Saturday; 2 pm Sunday. $10. theatrebr.org.
