The Hale Center Theatre, 2801 S. Main, is sponsoring a benefit matinee performance of "The Foreigner" at 5 p.m. on Monday, Feb. 17 (the play closes that night and the 8 p.m. show is sold out).
All proceeds from the special matinee will go to the Ouelessebougou (Wa-less-a-boo-goo) Foundation, which assists the impoverished villagers in Salt Lake's sister community in Mali, Africa. Admission to the benefit is $5 each, although additional donations are appreciated.
