Jazz group to cross cultural lines tonight at Collis

By Caroline McKenzie | November 13, 2003

American culture is, undeniably, attuned to perceiving certain things as "natural" pairings. For instance, what American doesn't think that peanut butter and jelly naturally go together? But, for most, the pairing of African and Jewish musical traditions doesn't exactly ring this Pavlovian bell.

Phillips recalls film's golden age

By Rebecca Leffler | November 10, 2003

"I specialized in bitches," announced Kate Phillips, formerly known as Kay Linaker, as she addressed a group of students and faculty in Wilson Hall last Friday. Phillips, who just celebrated her 90th birthday, is just as well-spoken and poised as she was back in her prime when she starred in over 50 Hollywood films in the 1930s and 40s. Some of her most memorable turns on the screen were in "Buck Benny Rides Again," "Young Mr. Lincoln" and some of the "Charlie Chan" mystery films. She has acted alongside such luminaries as Henry Fonda, Jack Benny, Bing Crosby and Sonja Henie.

Entertainment News

By Rebecca Leffler | November 10, 2003

After complaints from conservatives, CBS honcho Les Moonves is shelving the network's "The Reagans." It'll go in that big underground room where Dick Cheney is hiding. Porn actress Mary Carey is one of three adult film stars hosting a new reality show "Can You Be a Pornstar?" Good news for Monica Lewinsky. Oscar-winning actor Paul Newman made a "generous" donation to the southeast Kansas town of Franklin, hit hard by a tornado in May.

Estonian choir sings truly foreign music

By Christine Huggins | November 5, 2003

The Estonian Philharmonic Chamber Choir is not your typical glee club, and the sound they produce is not characteristic of most choirs. This was apparent from the first chord that rang out through Spaulding Auditorium last night -- a rich, deep, soul-piercing sound.

By Frances Cha | November 4, 2003

This is the first in a series of four behind-the-scenes articles looking at the creative theatrical process by chronicling the theater department's mainstage production of Arthur Miller's play "A View from the Bridge." Four hours a night, six days a week, self-destruction and incestuous jealousy unravel over and over at the Moore Theater.

Black gets angry, then gets old

By Matthew Kelly | October 29, 2003

Lewis Black wants everyone to know that he is angry. He's angry at the incompetence of leadership, angry at the cold, angry at candy corn, angry at corporate greed, but mainly angry at the stupidity of society.

B&S bounce back on latest LP

By Kate Carolan | October 23, 2003

Belle and Sebastian's fifth album, "Dear Catastrophe Waitress," is the band's attempt to emerge from the black hole to which they had been relegated by the most hardcore of indie rock critics after the disappointments of their third and fourth albums, "The Boy with the Arab Strap" and "Fold Your Hands Child, You Walk Like a Peasant." "Dear Catastrophe Waitress" luckily doesn't have the same inconsistencies and disjointedness that plagued the group's most recent albums, but it is not a return to their "Tigermilk" days either.
