Fall Film Screening - "The Lost Boys"
Friday, Oct. 24 at 7:30 p.m.
When a recently divorced mother and her two teenage boys move to a coastal town to stay with her father, it doesn't take long for the brothers to realize the area is a haven for something much more sinister than party-going surfers.
"Every Christmas Story Ever Told (and Then Some!)"
Nov. 13*-16 and Nov. 20-23
Thursdays-Saturdays at 7:30 p.m.
Sundays at 2 p.m.
Center for Performing Arts, Center Theatre
Instead of performing Charles Dickens' beloved holiday classic for the umpteenth time, three actors decide to perform every Christmas story ever told -- plus Christmas traditions from around the world, seasonal icons from ancient times to topical pop culture, and every carol ever sung. A madcap romp through the holiday season!
*The Nov. 13 performance is a free campus and community preview.

The Lightning Thief
April 9*-12 and April 15-19
Thursdays-Saturdays at 7:30 p.m.
Sundays at 2 p.m.
Center for Performing Arts, Center Theatre
As the half-blood son of a Greek god, Percy Jackson has newly-discovered powers he can't control, a destiny he doesn't want, and a mythology textbook's worth of monsters on his trail. When Zeus's master lightning bolt is stolen and Percy becomes the prime suspect, he has to find and return the bolt to prove his innocence and prevent a war between the gods. But to succeed on his quest, Percy will have to do more than catch the thief. He must travel to the Underworld and back; solve the riddle of the Oracle, which warns him of betrayal by a friend; and come to terms with the father who abandoned him.
Adapted from the best-selling book The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan and featuring a thrilling original rock score, The Lightning Thief: The Percy Jackson Musical is an action-packed mythical adventure "worthy of the gods" (Time Out New York).
*The Thursday, April 9th, performance is a free campus and community preview.
