The University of Wisconsin Oshkosh Theatre Department’s production The Seafarer hits the stage this week.

About the production: In the rundown Dublin house where Sharky cares for his blind brother, old acquaintances and an ominous stranger gather for a Christmas Eve card game. As the liquor flows and the game heats up, Sharky realizes he may truly be playing for his soul. In the grand tradition of Irish storytelling, this eerie Christmas fable looks at how people face their demons, past and present. Contains mature language.

The Seafarer runs Nov. 19 through 20, with nightly shows at 7:30 p.m. and a Nov. 23 show at 2 p.m.
