“Enron” is a gleefully surreal portrayal of the corrupt business practices that we’ve become all too familiar with in the last few years. Drury University Theatre and the Springfield Contemporary Theatre have collaborated to produce a corporate world where metaphors come to life, the stock traders are choreographed, and everyone speaks and argues like they’re in the boys’ locker room (although more polysyllabic words do get mixed in with all the four-lettered ones).

Let me first start off by saying that “An Evening with the Avett Brothers” is the first real concert I’ve attended since N’Sync on my twelfth birthday. Unlike the N’Sync concert, there were no glow sticks at the O’Reilly Family Event Center on March 10, but the Avett Brothers still shone brightly.
