SFA’s School of Theatre will present the student-directed one-act play “Last Chance” at 7:30 p.m. Feb. 19 and at 2 and 7:30 p.m. Feb. 20 in the Baker Pattillo Student Center Regents' Suite A. The show also will be livestreamed.

Johana Lenington, senior theatre education major from Houston, directs “Last Chance,” written by SFA School of Theatre senior lecturer Jackie Rosenfeld. The play revolves around the lives of a young married couple, Ray and Shannon. Shannon loves her husband and the life that they have built together, but when Ray’s addiction to alcohol begins to affect their happy lives, Shannon gives Ray a chance to forfeit drinking to save their marriage. When Ray continues to drink, Shannon must decide if she is willing to stay and work through his addiction or leave the situation.

Tickets are $4. Seating is limited, and face coverings are required. Social distancing protocols will be observed. To purchase tickets or virtual access, visit the SFA Fine Arts Box Office online or call (936) 468-6407.

If your login password is "qwerty," "password" or "senha" (password in Portuguese), you are not alone. Security application provider NordPass lists these and other commonly used passwords to illustrate the ease in which cyber robots can hack into accounts. Needless to say, SFA’s Information Technology Services suggests that you not use any of these.

So, if "123456" is your go-to password, you should watch this password management video on SFA's Help Desk portal.
