Theologian/Comedian Ted Schwartz at Eastern U. n actor/writer/biblical story teller/comedian named Ted Schwartz is coming to Eastern University at St. Davids on March 20 and 21. His Ted & Company TheaterWorks (www.tedandcompany.com) will present “Laughter is a Sacred Space” on Friday, March 21, at 10 a.m. in McInnis Auditorium at Eastern University, 1300 Eagle Rd., St. Davids, PA 19087. This is part of the Windows on the World series of lectures and programs, which are free and open to the public. Visit www.eastern.edu or call 610-341-5800 for information. On Thursday, March 20, Ted Schwartz will present “I’d Like to Buy An Enemy” at 8 p.m. in McInnis Auditorium on the campus at St. Davids. This program looks at “the assumptions and actions that lead to the creation of and the continuation of enemies.” As a theologian and thespian, Ted brings a unique perspective to his craft, creating a space where these two worlds can interact. Many people first learned to know Ted as part of the duo, Ted and Lee, working together with Lee Eshleman. Their creative partnership ended suddenly in 2007 when Lee took his own life. “In Laughter is a Sacred Space,” a show both humorous and vulnerably honest, Ted explores the paradox of working with a comedic partner struggling with bipolar disorder, as well as the challenge of writing and performing God’s stories while experiencing the absence of God after Lee’s death. Ted & Company are housed at Eastern Mennonite University in Harrisonburg, VA. Ted’s visit at Eastern is part of a grant he has received from Mennonite Central Committee (MCC) and is sponsored by Student Development, Fine Arts, the English Department, and the Provost’s Office.

With the help of her friend Flounder (Nick Vecchione of Springfield) and everyone’s favorite crab Sebastian (Toney Goins of Lansdowne), “The Little Mermaid, Jr.” is certain to be an enchanting, timeless, and musical adventure!

The Soldiers’ Chorus of the US Army Field Band Performs at Haverford College n Tuesday, March 18 at 5 p.m., the Chamber Singers of Haverford and Bryn Mawr Colleges, directed by Thomas Lloyd, will host the Soldiers’ Chorus of the United States Army Field Band, “…the greatest military chorus in the world and wonderful ambassadors to us all.” This concert will be held in Roberts Hall, Marshall Auditorium on the Haverford College Campus at 370 Lancaster Avenue, Haverford, PA, and is free and open to the public. For information: 610-896-1011, nmerriam@haverford.edu. The Soldiers’ Chorus, founded in 1957, is the vocal complement of the United States Army Field Band of Washington, DC. The 29-member mixed choral ensemble travels throughout the nation and abroad, performing as a separate component and in joint concerts with the Concert Band of the “Musical Ambassadors of the Army.” The chorus has performed in all fifty states, Canada, Mexico, India, the Far East, and throughout Europe, entertaining audiences of all ages. The musical backgrounds of Soldiers’ Chorus personnel range from opera and musical theatre to music education and vocal coaching; this diversity provides unique programming flexibility. In addition to presenting selections from the vast choral repertoire, Soldiers’ Chorus performances often include the music of Broadway, opera, barbershop quartet, and Americana. This versatility has earned the Soldiers’ Chorus an international reputation for presenting musical excellence and inspiring patriotism. Critics have acclaimed recent appearances with the Boston Pops, the Cincinnati Pops, and the Atlanta, Dallas, Detroit, Nashville, and National symphony orchestras. Other notable performances include four world fairs, American Choral Directors Association conferences, music educator conventions, Kennedy Center Honors Programs, the 750th anniversary of Berlin, and the rededication of the Statue of Liberty.

EDUCATION NEWS Friends’ Central Junior Travels to the White House for Winning Film

Friends’ Central juniors Daniel Nemroff (center) of Wynnewood, Sam Kruger (left) of Penn Valley, and John Gallagher (right) of Ardmore attended the first-ever White House Film Festival February 28. Nemroff’s film, “Technology in Education: A Future Classroom,” was one of 16 films chosen out of nearly 3,000 submissions received by the White House to be screened at the White House Film Festival. aniel Nemroff, a junior at Friends’ Central School, was selected to visit the White House on Friday, February 28, to show his film at the first-ever White House Film Festival. Nemroff’s film, “Technology in Education: A Future Classroom,” was one of 16 films chosen out of nearly 3,000 submissions received by the White House. The Competition, which took place from November 25 through January 29, was open to U.S. students in grades K-12. Entries needed to address either how technology is currently used in the student’s school or classroom or the role technology will play in the future of education. Nemroff says, “My interest in visual effects is what initially motivated me to create a futuristic film, but as I started to plan it out, I realized that there would need to be a whole lot more to it than just effects. Through this film, I wanted to show people how the classroom dynamic might actually change in the future.” After two rounds of judging, conducted by White House staff, Nemroff’s film was selected based on creativity in expression of theme, originality, and technical quality of final video. Nemroff knew he wanted to create a film based on a future classroom and what that would look like in terms of technology, particularly the role of the teacher. “I spent a lot of time talking with my teachers about how technology would be used in the classroom in the future. Al Filreis [Friends’ Central’s 2013 Distinguished Visiting Humanities Lecturer] also encouraged me to think about what the role of the teacher would be in the future,” Nemroff said. Nemroff had some help from friends Sam Kruger and John Gallagher, as well as Noah Silvestry, who helped Nemroff with filming, brainstorming, and recruiting classmates and teachers to be in the video. Then, Daniel had to bring his vision to life, including finding props, dreaming up exciting ideas for what a future classroom would look like, and directing all who appear in the film, as well as a considerable amount of editing and adding all the special effects, making the film a truly innovative work of art. After getting word that his film was selected for the White House Film Festival, Nemroff’s first thought was “Oh My God. Either way, I was happy with what I’d made, but I was honored to be chosen.” Nemroff, Kruger, and Gallagher traveled to the White House February 28, where the Nemroff’s film was screened in front of President Barack Obama, who told Nemroff and his fellow filmmakers how outstanding their movies were, “In my official capacity as President, let me just say these movies are awesome. Like all great movies, yours do something special—they tell a story. They help us understand, in this case, the amazing things that are going on in classrooms and how technology is empowering our students and broadening their imaginations and challenging them to dream bigger and reach further.” Other special guests at the Film Festival included Kal Penn, Neil deGrasse Tyson, Conan O’Brien, and Bill Nye, who welcomed the boys to the Film Festival and interviewed them after entering the White House. Congratulations, Daniel!

n Monday February 24, three Marine Corps Leaguers from the General Smedley D. Butler Detachment and one member of the Upper Darby Detachment kicked off a new mini-history program at Monsignor Bonner High School in Upper Darby devoted to WWll Pacific theater battles. The Butler Detachment regularly presents a Mini Flag history program in the elementary schools of Delaware County and other nearby locations. The program began with a description of the battle of Iwo Jima and proceeded to Gualalcanal, Tulagi, the Makin Island Raid (led by Evan Carlson and his second in command, Jimmy Roosevelt, FDR’s son), and Okinawa. Both of the older Marines, Jim McGuigan (89 years old) and George Boyajian (90 years old) fought in the battle for Okinawa, the largest land battle of the Pacific war. It was the tremendous casualties in the taking of Okinawa that convinced President Harry Truman to drop the atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The allies suffered 14,000 deaths and 65,000 casualties of all kinds. It was estimated that it would take over one million American lives to defeat Japan on their home islands. The Marine Corps Leaguers made three presentations of their program to three different classes at Bonner. The General Smedley D. Butler Detachment of the Marine Corps League, headquartered in Newtown Square, provides educational programs for children, historically relevant exhibits in libraries and museums, and Graveside Honor Ceremonies. It also provides assistance to wounded veterans and their families. It awarded 11 scholarships to local students in 2013. Last spring and summer there was a display in the Springfield Township Library honoring the Montford Point Marines. These first African American Marine recruits were trained separately from other recruits at Camp Montford Point, in Jacksonville, North Carolina, from 1942 to 1949 when the United States military was desegregated. The Marine Corps League was founded in 1923 by WWI Marine hero and then Maj. Gen. and Commandant of the United States Marine Corps, John A. Lejeune. Today the League boasts of a membership in excess of 76,000. Its sponsored programs include Marines Helping Marines, the Youth Physical Fitness Program, the Young Marines of the Marine Corps League, the Veterans Service Officer Program, the Marine Corps League Auxiliary, the Toys for Tots program, the Adopt-a-Highway program, and several scholarships. U.S. Marine Corps General Smedley D. Butler was born in West Chester and lived much of his adult life in Newtown Square. He spent many of his final years lecturing throughout the country on behalf of veterans’ causes and good government. The general was one of only two U.S. Marines awarded two Medals of Honor for heroism in two distinct military actions. See the General Butler Detachment on Facebook at Marine Corps League, General Smedley D. Butler Detachment. The Pennsylvania Department of the MCL has a web site at www.PAMCLeague.org.
