Maude (Karisa Bruin) is a fifty-something, unemployed bartender living in a trailer park who buys a painting for a few bucks at a thrift store. She almost throws it away\u2014until she becomes convinced it\u2019s a long-lost Jackson Pollock worth millions. Enter Lionel Percy (Dennis Elkins), a polished, world-class art expert from New York, who arrives in Bakersfield to authenticate the painting\u2026 and gets far more than he bargained for.<\/p>\n<p>Bakersfield Mist is witty, sharp, and heartfelt, asking big questions about art, truth, class, and who gets to decide what (or who) is \u201cauthentic.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Get your tickets at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pagosacenter.org\/bakersfield-mist-picked-to-close-thingamajigs-winter-season\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">pagosacenter.org<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Performance Dates<br \/>Friday, February 20 and Saturday, February 21 \u2013 7:00pm<br \/>Friday, February 27 and Saturday February 28 \u2013 7:00pm<br \/>Sunday, March 1 \u2013 3:00pm<br \/>Saturday, March 7 \u2013 7:00pm<br \/>Sunday, March 8 \u2013 3:00pm<br \/>Friday, March 13 and Saturday March 14 \u2013 7:00pm<\/p>\n<p>We can\u2019t wait to share this sharp, hilarious, and deeply human play with you, and we\u2019re already looking forward to welcoming Art to the stage next season.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks, as always, for being part of our theatre community.
