SUMMARY:Dracula\, A Feminist Revenge Fantasy. Really.
DESCRIPTION:Dracula\, A Feminist Revenge Fantasy. Really. \nWritten By Kate Hamill\nDirected By Hannah Nies \nBouncing between horror and humor\, Kate Hamill’s adaptation of Bram Stoker’s novel is a thrilling play that questions who the true monsters are. Fierce\, feminist\, frightening. “When your survival is at stake… will you be able to distinguish the monster from the man? Both terrifying and riotous\, Kate Hamill’s imaginative\, gender-bending “feminist revenge fantasy” is like no Dracula you’ve ever seen—exploring the nature of predators and reinventing the story as a smart\, disquieting\, darkly comic drama. Hamill’s signature style and postmodern wit upends this familiar tale of Victorian vampires—driving a stake through the heart of toxic masculinity.” \nPerformed on the Bartelll Theater’s Evjue Stage \nUpcoming Performances\nThu\, Oct 16th – 7:30pm\nFri\, Oct 17th – 7:30pm\nSat\, Oct 18th – 7:30pm\nSun\, Oct 19th – 1:30pm\nThu\, Oct 23rd – 7:30pm\nFri\, Oct 24th – 7:30pm\nSat\, Oct 25th – 7:30pm\nSun\, Oct 26th – 1:30pm\nThu\, Oct 30th – 7:30pm\nFri\, Oct 31st – 7:30pm\nSat\, Nov 1st – 1:30pm

SUMMARY:Michelle Thaller: Cosmic Treasures – Chasing Asteroids for Clues to the Origins of Life
DESCRIPTION:Join Michelle Thaller\, former NASA science communicator\, for an evening exploring the origins of life. Thaller\, in conversation with Eric Wilcots\, Dean of the College of Letters & Sciences and Professor in the Dept of Astronomy\, will talk about the OSIRIS-REx mission – an audacious project to return a sample from an asteroid. No problem\, right? Just chase down a small rock 200 million miles away\, traveling literally faster than a speeding bullet\, vacuum up a sample of its surface\, and shoot it back to Earth. The story turned out to be more difficult\, dramatic\, and rewarding than anyone expected. Join us to find out why we went to so much trouble to bring back an ancient sample of our solar system and what was waiting inside that absolutely blew our minds.
