New paintings by Laara Cassells tackle the isolation and absorption of the generation dubbed ‘the intentionally disengaged’. Cassells juxtaposes images of youth and contemporary popular culture with a more historical portrait painting tradition, the equestrian portrait, celebrating both the disjuncture and the resonance between subjects and medium. e·strange runs from February 27 – April 11, 2010 at the Esplanade.

Cultural Centre Black Box Theatre

By Lillian Hellman
Co-presented by College Players & FUT in the Hat

Dashiell Hammett brought the true story of two school teachers wrongly condemned for lesbianism by the lie of a spiteful student to Hellman’s notice. Her play has earned its place as one of the enduring works of the American Theatre. While it was shunned by the Pulitzer Prize selection committee for drama, the outrage at the play’s exclusion for that award sparked the creation of the Drama Critics Circle award to honour her achievement. This play is not recommended for children.

Tickets $15 (+ s/c and gst)
