Extra Credit Opportunities

This weekend and next weekend there are two theater productions of WONDERFUL plays that I encourage you to attend. If you do go, you'll get credit if you write a response of two pages.

The first is Waiting for Godot, which will be performed this weekend on a rooftop in the Lower Ninth Ward and next weekend on a rooftop in Gentilly. The play is about two people who talk as they wait for Godot (who never shows up). The actor starring in this play is Wendell Pierce from HBO's The Wire. The play is free. I'll be going on Friday, so I can give you directions.

The second play you should see is The Laramie Project. This is being put on at Loyola University on Nov. 2, 3, 8, 9, and 10 at 8 pm, and on Nov. 4 and 11 at 2 pm. I saw this a few years ago at UNO (the same theater company did that one as are doing the one at Loyola), and it was the best play I ever saw. It is powerful, creative, compelling, tragic, and uplifting all at once. This will set you back only $8. Call 865-2074 for ticket information (pay and reserve so you don't miss out).
