No Exit is a twisted existential tragedy in which three damned souls find themselves locked in the room that is their hell. Each desperately seeks their salvation by trying to force one of the others to see them as they wish to see themselves.
Senior Drama major Lucy Gallagher is Inez, a sadistic adulteress. Brennan Schmiedicke returns to Senior Studios as Cradeau, an abusive pacifist journalist (and deserter). Beatrice Ellison is the slightly washed-up baby-killing socialite Estelle, and Jude Self is the sardonic teenage Bellhop tasked to welcoming the three to their eternal destination: hell.
