Eight world-class hoofers, three jazz musicians and multimedia projections and narratives about the history of tap come together to amke "Thank You, Gregory!" an entertaining and poignant salute to this great form of dance. "Eight very alive tap dancers interacted with the photos and film, making the evening something more than an honorable effort showcasing an often-overlooked American dance form." - Philadelphia City Paper Harper Lee's "To Kill a Mockingbird" "To Kill a Mockingbird" - The Movie Friday November 13, 2009 8:30 pm Lane University Center Free & Open to the Public "To Kill a Mockingbird" - The Performance Tuesday November 17, 2009 7:30 pm Mountain Ridge High School, Frostburg Purchase Tickets Adults $26, Under 17 $18, FSU Employee $18, FSU Student $3 Transportation provided for FSU students Harper Lee's 1960 Pulitzer Prize-winning novel comes to life, as The Montana Repertory Theatre presents "To Kill A Mockingbird." This classic American story, set in the 1930s, tells the tale of a sleepy Southern town that is rocked with scandal when a young black man is accused of raping a white woman. Atticus Finch, an attorney and widow of two young children, stands against his fellow townspeople by defending the accused man. The full-length play focuses on Atticus' heroic battle, as well as the growth and development of the Finch children as they watch prejudice and racism erupt in their community. The play offers high drama, wit and hope as the characters explore themes that are still relevant today. "From the opening to the closing standing ovation, 'To Kill a Mockingbird' was powerful and gripping ..." -The Chieftain, Pueblo, Colorado For more information about Cultural Events Series Mary Jane Plummer I 235 Lane University Center I 301.687.3137 Director of Cultural Events Series Website I Facebook I Twitter
