Buddha, the one-man show

We could all use a little enlightenment, and we're not going to find it on twitter, am I right? (DM me your answers.) Tonight at the BCA, Evan Brenner opens his "The Buddha - In His Own Words" at the Plaza Black Box Theatre, the first of two weeks of performances of the show which was developed here over two years at venues like the Cambridge Center for Adult Ed. The show uses the original, ancient accounts of the Buddha's life to show the man and how his teachings were shaped, in India circa 500 B.C. Brenner wrote and performs the show, which is directed and produced by David Fuhrer. The play will be at the BCA through April 4. Tickets $28-$33, at www.bostontheatrescene.com or (617) 933-8600.. It also runs at Cambridge Family YMCA Theatre, 820 Mass Ave, Cambridge on April 10-12. Tickets, $25-$30, at www.brownpapertickets.com or call (800) 838-3006
