Come see the Theater Department in its presentation of The Threepenny Opera. Banned by the Nazis in Germany, its acidic music and bawdy lyrics paint a vivid picture of early twentieth-century London and its criminal underworld. Come see the best singing, acting, and theatrical design Wesleyan's faculty, staff, and students have to offer!Preview Performance

EON has put together a week of events/activities because, well, we did some stuff this semester and we wanted you to know about it! Here's what we have planned:
Waste Awareness: Trayless Week at Usdan
ALL WEEK, 12/1-12/6 [EDIT: probably not happening Monday, but look for it sometime later in the week]
lunch and dinner, Usdan Marketplace
Currently, we throw away 150 lbs of food waste every day at lunch. Food waste will be collected and measured at each meal during the week of 12/1-12/6. Let’s see how much waste we can reduce by not using trays! *trays will be available for those who absolutely require them.
Film Series: Fern Gully: The Last Rainforest
TUESDAY, 12/2, 8 pm
PAC 002
Fern Gully is a childhood classic not to miss. With such talent as Tim Curry, Robin Williams, and Christian Slater, Fern Gully just might be the cutest and most hilarious representation of deforestation and pollution out there.
Film Series: Double Feature: “Is God Green?” And “Gimme Green”
WEDNESDAY, 12/3, 8 pm
PAC 002
“Is God Green?” is part of the PBS series Moyers on America. It “explores how a serious split among conservative evangelicals over the environment and global warming could reshape American politics.”
“Gimme Green” is a short documentary “that examines the American obsession with the residential lawn.”

EDIT (Ben, 5:26): Fixed Monday and Tuesday dates.
EDIT (Alex, 6:50): Fixed dates again, because I put them in wrong in the first place, and added locations for the movies, because I forgot those, too. Oooopsies.
