  • On Screen/in Person: Sweet Dreams

    Pollak Theatre

    Made up of women from both sides of the 1994 Rwandan genocide, Rwanda’s first and only all women’s drum troupe, Ingoma Nshya, offers a place of support, healing and reconciliation. When the group decides to partner with two young American entrepreneurs to open Rwanda’s first ever ice cream shop, these remarkable women embark on a journey of independence, peace and possibility. SWEET DREAMS interweaves heart-wrenching stories of tragedy with powerful examples of hope and resilience to present a moving portrait of a country in transition. There will be a Q&A with Co-Directors Lisa Fruchtman and Rob Fruchtman following the screening.

  • TUESDAY NIGHT RECORD CLUB: NIRVANA’S Nevermind

    Lauren K. Woods Theatre

    It’s just like book club but with albums! With new advances in

    and on demand streaming services like Pandora, Spotify and iTunes
    is making the idea of the “album” as an art form extinct. Get together
    with other music enthusiasts on Tuesday nights in Woods Theatre to
    discuss some of the greatest records of all-time! Listen to the album
    beforehand and then come prepared to discuss…there will be special
    guest moderators and panelists at each event! This discussion will feature NIRVANA’S Nevermind. This event is free but registration is required. Panelists for this event include: Aaron Furgason, Chair, Monmouth University’s Department of Communication & Kim Zide Davis- Manager for the band Pantera, Rich Robinson- Program Director/ On-air Personality 90.5 The Night; and the estate of “Dimebag” Darrell Abbott.
