This first performance would have taken pla— ce in a private house— hold rather than in a public theater, and it was probably attended by Queen Elizabeth. Taking into considera— tion the circumstances of the play's first perfor— mance, several paral— lels began to emerge: the upcoming marriage of Theseus to Hippo/yta, the overriding theme of love throughout, the culminating wedding of the three cou- ples, the performance of a play as wedding enter— tainment, and the fairies’ blessing of three marriage beds in a noble house— hold at the end of the play. For those of us who have devoted our lives to drama, A Midsum- mer Night’s Dream is the ultimate celebra- tion of the transcend— ent truth, joy, mad- ness, ritual, and beauty of theatre; and it’s been a pleasure to explore and enter into the world of this play in collaboration with my colleagues and with such a talented group of students.” — Martha lohnson February 2000 .

Dressed up as every- thing from a “One Night Stand,” to the infamous Saturday Night Live character “Mary Catherine Gal— lagher,” Augsburg stu— dents rocked the night away at Riverplace, just a few miles from campus. Highlights of the evening were the transportation: a shut— tle bus to and from the party destination, the dancing: courtesy of some funky d.j. music, a cash bar: for those a tltilltmcen ‘ over 21, appetizers includ- ing strawberries and choc— olate, and of course the costumes, for which prizes were given away. Christian Burnoski claimed the first place prize, a trip to Chica- go, for his horrific get- up pictured here. The evening, unhampered by any real—life ghouls or goblins, turned out over 300 students, and due to its success was the first of a possible annual event. Many thanks went out to ASAC for providing an exciting, college—aged twist on an old- fashioned tradition. Show less

Show moreCivil Rights Immersion Tour As part of a joint effort be- tween M. Joe Young, Di— rector of Pan-Afrikan Stu- dent Services; and Carry Hesser, Professor of Sociol— ogy and Director of Metro— Urban Studies; a diverse group of 23 Augsburg stu— dents were able to travel through the deep south this past January. These students took part in a J— term course on civil rights, receiving two weeks of classroom instruction be- fore setting off on a 10—day bus tour through six states. The group departed from Augsburg directly after the Martin Luther King, Jr. con— vocation on January 17th, and returned on the 28th after having visited impor— tant civil rights sites in Little Rock, Arkansas; Memphis, Tennessee; Birmingham, Montgomery, and Selma, Alabama; Atlanta, Georgia; and Chicago, Illinois. Some points of interest along their trip included the Na- tional Civil Rights Museum, M.L.K.’s birthplace, Ebene— zer Baptist Church, and Fisk University. The pur— pose of the immersion tour, according to Joe Young, was to give stu— dents the chance to have an emotional and tactile response that would be personal for each indi- vidual. He hopes that the students can tranfer their experiences to the Augs- burg campus, in terms of being aware of issues of injustice, and of address- ing them. As an experi- mental first year of the program, it was well worth it, he says. Direc- tor Young and Prof. Hesser have plans to make this collaborative learning experience an annual event, each year taking a new group of students to learn about the struggles of civil rights first-hand. A Tracing M.L.K.'s footsteps across the south, Antenisha Criggs and Roshonda White visit this statue in Birmingham at Kelly lngram Park.

Performance skills such as vocal quality for singing and speaking, emotion on a pliable face, and believable physicall— ties that reflect an inner emotional life must be tarefully layered on one another to create just one moment in a production. Much of my work and the students’ work involves dissecting notes and words and then layering them through the use of face, voice and body to give words and music life. This is a long and intricate process that often results in tremendous progress Sometimes when | see ab solute precision in the ex~ etution of th work, I am amazed at the ‘/’l\t'l‘ a \piing l‘la\ 4 /w t it 'lt h simplistic final appearance of such a complicated task.
