SUMMARY:A Bronx Tale starring Chazz Palminteri - SOLD OUT
DESCRIPTION:**PLEASE NOTE THIS SHOW IS AT 4 PM**\nThis is event is SOLD OUT. If you would like to be put on the wait list for tickets please call the box office at 732.263.6889\n \nBronx-born and raised Chazz Palminteri wrote A Bronx Tale in 1988. The powerful one-man stage play depicted his bruising childhood which included witnessing a gangland killing when he was nine years old. Palminteri played 18 characters and brought them all to life in his autobiographical play. His friends\, enemies and family came alive on stage. Hollywood Studios went crazy after seeing it and offered him millions of dollars to turn it into a major movie. There was one catch… They wanted to put a star in the role of Sonny and someone else to write the screenplay. With $200 dollars in the bank…Palminteri said No… he would hold out and wait. He wanted to play Sonny and write the screenplay. Then one night Palminteri walked into his dressing room and siting there was Robert De Niro who just saw the show… He said it was the greatest one-man show he’s ever saw. Robert DeNiro gave Palminteri the chance he was waiting for… And as they say in Hollywood the rest is history. \nPalminteri wrote the screenplay for the film A Bronx Tale and then most recently wrote the book for the Broadway Musical. It was the first time in history that the same actor wrote the one-man play\, the movie\, and the Broadway Musical and starred in each one. \nThe show you will see now is the exact show Chazz Palminteri did 34 years ago with just a chair that made him a star. \nwww.chazzpalminteri.net

SUMMARY:A Conversation with Robert Pinsky
DESCRIPTION:Join former three-term US Poet Laureate and Long Branch\, NJ native Robert Pinsky for an evening of conversation in celebration of the release of his memoir Jersey Breaks.  The evening will be moderated by the Dean of The Wayne D. McMurray School of Humanities and Social Sciences\, David Hamilton Golland\, Ph.D. \n“Truly the voice of the Jersey Shore.” – Bruce Springsteen \nThe acclaimed poet takes an affectionate look back. The U.S. poet laureate from 1997 to 2000 and “an expert at nothing except the sounds of sentences in the English language\,” Pinsky (b. 1940) moves back and forth in time\, narrating his life in crisp\, self-deprecating prose. “If I have a story to tell\,” he writes\, “it’s how the failures and aspirations of a certain time and place led to poetry.” That place was Long Branch\, New Jersey\, where the author grew up in an Orthodox\, lower-middle-class family in a neighborhood that was both poor and segregated. In the “sounds of Hebrew\,” Pinsky heard Milton\, Blake\, and Whitman. He recalls reading stories and poems in the glossy magazines in his optician father’s waiting room as well as the “exact moment when I became a writer\,” thanks to Through the Looking Glass. As an “ambitious\, pseudointellectual freshman” at Rutgers University\, he encountered and enjoyed Ulysses and the poetry of William Carlos Williams\, T.S. Eliot\, and Allen Ginsberg. Pinsky confesses that his way of writing a poem stems from getting a “tune in my head…like noodling at the piano\,” and his approach fostered his popular Favorite Poem Project\, which combined the “appeal of gossip with the appeal of art.” \nThough the author loved playing music\, poetry came first in college\, and he explains how his “habit of thinking about names was essential to my work as a poet.” He lavishes praise on two cantankerous college teachers—Paul Fussell and “relentless dictator” Yvor Winters—as well as his friend and mentor Thom Gunn. When teaching at Wellesley in 1970\, Pinsky attended Robert Lowell’s “erratic writing workshop\,” and Lowell gave him a blurb for his first collection\, Sadness and Happiness. Throughout\, the author sharply dissects a variety of poems\, including his own\, and he excitedly explains the welcome challenge of translating Dante’s Inferno. \nFans of literature will relish Pinsky’s jocular recollections and infectious love of poetry.

SUMMARY:Ian McEwan's Atonement
DESCRIPTION:Join us for Tuesday Night Book Club! Hosted by Monmouth University’s Ken Womack\, each month we’ll explore a different novel. All you have to do is Zoom in and join the discussion! \nThis month’s novel is Ian McEwan’s Atonement. \n\n\nThis month’s novel is NATIONAL BESTSELLER Ian McEwan’s Atonement. \nA symphonic novel of love and war\, childhood and class\, guilt and forgiveness that provides all the satisfaction of a brilliant narrative and the provocation we have come to expect from the acclaimed Booker Prize–winning\, international bestselling author Ian McEwan. \nOn a hot summer day in 1935\, thirteen-year-old Briony Tallis witnesses a moment’s flirtation between her older sister\, Cecilia\, and Robbie Turner\, the son of a servant and Cecilia’s childhood friend. But Briony’ s incomplete grasp of adult motives—together with her precocious literary gifts—brings about a crime that will change all their lives. \n“A beautiful and majestic fictional panorama.” —John Updike\, The New Yorker \nWhen you register you will be provided the meeting link to join the conversation.

SUMMARY:The Woods - A mixed-reality\, two-player cooperative game
DESCRIPTION:“The Woods” is a mixed-reality\, two-player cooperative game that addresses the perils of social isolation by promoting connections between people and actively engaging them through play.

In pursuit of a shared goal\, players experience an immersive sonic narrative of rumbling storm clouds and disconnected voices that culminate in stories of hope and reconciliation. The design intent behind “The Woods” is to illuminate human connections to others and to celebrate this through collaborative play. \n4pm – 5pm – Experience The Woods (Demo)\nLocation: IDM (Interactive Digital Media) Research Lab\, Plangere Room 135\nRSVP Required for the demo session ONLY.\nFor more info or to RSVP\, contact Wobbe F.

SUMMARY:Budrus
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a World Cinema Series film screening/discussion illuminating the theme “Wartime Lives: Enduring and Transcending Violence and Occupation” by analyzing the message and impact of the film Budrus (Israeli/Palestinian/American\, 2009). \nBudrus is an award-winning feature documentary film about Palestinian community organizer\, Ayed Morrar\, who unites Palestinian political factions and invites Israeli supporters to join an unarmed movement to save his village of Budrus from destruction by Israel’s Separation Barrier. Success eludes them until his 15-year-old daughter\, Iltezam\, launches a women’s contingent that quickly moves to the front lines. Struggling side by side\, father and daughter unleash an inspiring\, yet little-known\, movement in the Occupied Palestinian Territories that is still gaining ground today. \nIn an action-filled documentary chronicling this movement from its infancy\, Budrus shines a light on people who choose nonviolent strategies to confront a threat. The movie is directed by award-winning filmmaker Julia Bacha (co-writer and editor of Control Room and co-director Encounter Point)\, and produced by Bacha\, Palestinian journalist Rula Salameh\, and filmmaker and human rights advocate Ronit Avni (formerly of WITNESS\, Director of Encounter Point). \nThe discussion of the film will be led by Claude Taylor\, Director For Academic Transition And Inclusion and Saliba Sarsar\, Professor in the department of Political Science and Sociology.
