THRILLER: AN INSTALLATIONBY ADAM PARKER SMITHDecember 4 February 20eGallery, Tarble Arts Center

The Herman Melville novel Moby-Dick (1851)and Steven Spielbergs horror thriller movieJaws (1975) serve as the oundation or thisinstallation. States Smith, To Ahab and Quint[the novels and movies protagonists], killingthe man-eaters becomes the ultimate goalin their lives and is analogous to mansstruggle against ate. The white whale and

Jaws have also been seen as as symbol ormany things, including nature and those

elements o lie that are out o human control.The wild success o the movie Jaws, and the book Moby-Dick, shows that thisimagined tension triggered rom the real or unreal has a power ul hold on ourpsyche. Artist Adam Parker Smith lives and works in Brooklyn, N.Y.

November 14 2 p.m.Black Box Theatre, $12 General / $10 EIU Employees & Seniors (62+) / $5 Students

From the acclaimed playwright o Dancing at Lughnasa,this hauntingly lyrical play is about nothing less thanlanguage as the soul o a nation. Set in 1833 Ireland, ittells o the British armys campaign to replace the nativeGaelic with English. Against a beautiul backdrop, aBritish lieutenant sent to Anglicize the country alls inlove with an Irish girl, the language he is supposed tosuppress, and Ireland itsel.

URINETOWNOctober 15, 16, 18, 19 7 p.m.October 17 2 p.m.The Theatre, $12 General / $10 EIU Employees & Seniors (62+) / $5 Students

One o the most uproariously unny musicalsin recent years, Urinetown is a hilarious taleo greed, corruption, love and revolutionin a time when water is worth its weight ingold. In a Gotham-like city, a terrible watershortage, caused by a 20-year drought, hasled to a government-enorced ban on privatetoilets. The citizens must use public amenities,

regulated by a single malevolent companythat prots by charging admission or oneo humanitys most basic needs. Amid thepeople, a hero decides hes had enough, and

plans a revolution to lead them all to reedom! Inspired by the works oBertolt Brecht and Kurt Weill, Urinetown is an irreverently humorous satirein which no one is sae rom scrutiny.

Music by Mark Hollmann Lyrics by Mark Hollmann and Greg Kotis Book by Greg Kotis

One o the unniest plays o the 20thcentury, this classic backstage arce,complete with slamming doors, sexu-al dalliances, conusions and errantplates o sardines, ollows a haplessacting troupe during the course o adisastrous provincial tour.

This timeless comedy by one o Francesgreatest playwrights ollows the outrageous

activities o a penniless scoundrel andreligious pretender, who insinuates himselinto the home o his gullible beneactor,wreaking havoc among the amily members.Amid the tales o seduction and blackmail,the playwright mercilessly and humorously examines the evil men can commit in theguise o religious ervor.
