Alleged Misconduct in Research and Other Scholarly Activities

Thwarted Voices - Guest Artist Deborah Cook, School Of Performing Arts

Cultural Affairs Distinguished Lecture Series

Now in it's sixth season, Dr. Phillip Silver's Thwarted Voices concert series provides an opportunity to present what is called "forgotten music" composed by Jewish musicians victimized by the Nationalist Socialist racist policies of the Holocaust in Europe. Some composers perished in Nazi concentrations camps and others escaped by fleeing, in some cases to America. But much of their music has remained unperformed over the years.

Wintertime, School Of Performing Arts

Cultural Affairs Distinguished Lecture Series

Charles Mee's Wintertime is an unusual piece, one of his re-creations of ancient plays. Mee believes firmly that nothing is original - Shakespeare borrowed from the Greeks, modern entertainment borrows from Shakespeare. He pulls together disparate elements from past theatrical works and meshes them with contemporary aspects, creating a play that is contemporary but never strays from its historical roots. As such, Wintertime is, by Mee's own description, "a sweet, dreamy, romantic comedy from the world of The Winter's Tale and The Cherry Orchard and Moliere and Magritte."
