“The Prophets,” written by Slawomir Mrozek and presented by the

Glendale Community College Theatre Arts Department, opens Thursday night

in the Auditorium Studio Theatre.

Mrozek, a contemporary Polish playwright, is considered a master of

modern satire. His “The Prophets” is a biting send-up of mob politics in

which a prophet arrives -- only there are two of them.

Teresa Dzieduszycka. Performances are at 8 p.m. Thursday through Saturday

and on March 2, 3, 4, 9, 10 and 11. Matinees are at 2 p.m. on Feb. 27,
