“The Flag Is Up” To Present Vanya And Sonia And Masha And Spike
By Houston Glover,
Student Contributor
It is the beginning of a new year and a new season for The Flag is Up Productions, Schreiner’s theatre company; as rehearsals begin for next month’s production of Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike, a black comedy by contemporary playwright Christopher Durang. A popular modern piece, Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike (or Vanya et al, as it will be referred to henceforth) premiered in Princeton, New Jersey, in 2012. The “sunny new play about gloomy people,” as The New York Times called it, received a great response when it hit Broadway the following year; so much so that it won the Tony Award for Best Play in 2013. This October, The Flag is Up brings Vanya et al to Schreiner for the first time. The play begins with Vanya (Andrew Cannon) and Sonia (Lily Russell), a low-spirited pair of middle-aged siblings living together in their childhood home. Conflict soon drops in unannounced when their movie star sister,

Masha (Harley ‘Prince’ Maldonado), who has been supporting her siblings financially, and who owns their house outright; shows up with her attractive young lover, Spike (Danny Alaniz). Old resentments among the siblings rise to the surface in argument after argument; the central issue is whether or not to sell what was once their parents’ house. Rounding out the cast of characters are Cassandra (Charlotte Mikuls), the sassy, somewhat clairvoyant, cleaning lady; and Nina (Mary Kay Huerta), their sincere young neighbor with dreams of becoming an actress. Seasoned dramatic literature buffs will recognize the names of three of the play’s titular characters from the works of Anton Chekhov; although Durang drew inspiration for his play from several of Chekov’s, Vanya et al takes place in modern-day Bucks County, Pennsylvania—half a world and over a century removed from Chekhov’s impoverished 19th-century Russia. Durang also once stated that he was not Continued on page 6
By Sydney Churchill-Blain, Editor’s Apprentice Dr. Kathleen Hudson founded the Texas Heritage Music Foundation in 1987, which has hosted multiple events since then. One of these is called the Texas Heritage Music Day, which will be happening this year on September 30th here on campus. This year, well-known artists such as Max Baca y los Texmaniacs will be playing here at Schreiner University. I took a moment to sit down with Dr. Hudson and hear more about the event and her foundation. Churchill-Blain: How long has Texas Heritage Music Day been going? Hudson: “In a very basic form, THMD started 29 years ago, as simply a tribute to Jimmy Rodgers, and was called the Jimmy Rodgers Jubille. It expanded and about 20 years ago and became more of an educational program using stories and songs. THMF has since gone through a couple of names; one time I called it Texas Heritage Living History Day and one time I called it Living History. Now it’s Texas Heritage Music Day because we’re a music foundation and the music needs

to be the focus. But I will have Lipan Apache there to educate and Comanche stories and chuck wagon demonstration and teepees and there’s that added piece beside the music. CB: So what inspired you to start the event? H: Even though I love the music and documenting and fellowship and being in the field, what I really love is bringing together an audience with something that I know and appreciate. So it’s really the process of bringing these things together which is why the classroom is great for me. This event is another place where I round up people that have something important to say and put them in a situation where other people can hear them.

Design Seniors Prepare for Exhibition In Spring
By Marty Garcia, Editor In Chief Every spring, the Communications Design seniors prepare an exhibition of their work over the course of their final year. For this 2016-2017 exhibition, the show is called “#ChangingMyMajor,” and 8 students will be participating. Usually, the show takes place in the CCAC for a few days, but this year it will be relocated to the Kerr Arts and Cultural Center, which give the students more room to work creatively. “The show’s title comes from a comment made by one of the students presenting during freshman year,” Senior Robert Dinkins said of the theme. “I am very excited for the
new space, thankfully our show will be up longer and we can all work together to create a good atmosphere.” The show is set to open on April 1st , 2017, and be open during the whole month of April. However, the seniors are already busy finalizing their ideas and preparing to make a show that will impact all of the viewers. “It’s important for the students to prepare. They must go through the process of not only coming up with topic ideas for their thesis, they also need to eliminate ideas. The Senior Show is only a portion of the entire experience. The exhibition itself is only the visual expression/representation and culmination of all the work that has lead up to this point in each Communication Design major’s career.

This is a capstone for each major and as such should be the best and strongest representation of their design abilities.,” Professor Kathryn Campbell said. She is in charge of all the logistics of the show, and also advises some of the seniors as they prepare. All the design professors are involved in the process of producing this show, as advisors to certain students. Each student assembles a committee of 3 professors, who help them guide them through the process of research, writing, and production. But the whole campus can help the exhibition be a success, as Campbell explains. “Students need financial and emotional support throughout the process. The show Continued on page 7

Bringing Out The Best (And The Worst) of Me, Every Day By Marty Garcia, Editor-In-Chief
Being a design major didn’t really hit me until I took a class called “Computer Illustration” my sophomore year. Lots of people in the department joke that it is “the class that makes or breaks a student.” Many students actually change their major. But despite the numerous hours spent learning tool icons, keyboard shortcuts, and what NOT to do (looking back, I really hate myself for some of those designs that I thought were the bomb.com), I began to slowly appreciate the freedom that the knowledge granted me. If people say they need some visual asset, I can say, “I know how to do that.” Or if I don’t, I know enough to figure it out. Or when I feel like I need a graphic or a certain element when producing the layout for this paper, I can make it look exactly how I want it. Sometimes I look at other students, especially ones in marketing, and I wonder what would have happened if I had ceded to my freshman/sophomore doubts and changed my major. And then I get really happy that I didn’t. But this doesn’t mean that everyone gets it right the first time. I read somewhere that over two-thirds of college students change their major not just once, but twice during their college career. That’s a lot of people. Why does this happen? Well, I personally feel like a lot of it comes from students who By Darrin Miller, Student Contributor Most people see ministry as something for someone who goes to school, learns the Bible, and then finds a full time position at a church. Others see ministry as a higher calling, too far to obtain, or as something that is only for the select few. Yet when we study how the Bible describes the normal way of life for a Christian, it becomes clear that we are all called into full-time ministry. Ministry isn’t a job or an occupation; ministry is the byproduct of new life, offered thr ough the blood of Christ and given by the Holy Spirit. Ministry is a lifestyle that all Christians are called into. Here are 5 principles that will help you walk according to God’s calling. 1. Denial The first and most crucial aspect of ministry is denial. As new creations in Christ (2 Co. 5:17), we are called to put off the passions of the flesh, and live according the Spirit which brings about love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and selfcontrol (Galatians 5:22-23). Although we have the Spirit of God residing in us through Christ, our flesh has not yet been torn away, unfortunately. There is still choice. A life of denial begins by denying your own lusts, thoughts, opinions, and selfish ambitions in order to surrender all things unto Christ. Anything that is against the Word, the Spirit, or the will of God as it has been revealed to you must be denied in order to walk in unison with our Lord and to be successful in ministry. For me, denial is opening my Bible app instead of my Facebook app. It is choosing to prepare my sermon instead of staying up until 2 a.m. on my PS4. For me, denial is giving the cash I have in order to fulfill the needs of those who have none. Denial for me is choosing Christ. Matthew 16:24: “Then Jesus said to His disciples, “If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me.” 2. Devotion For a Christian, living a devoted life is one of constant communication with our Lord. After all, how can we follow Him if we don’t know where He is going? In Matthew 6:5-14, Jesus tells us to set aside time behind closed doors to pray to the Father on a daily basis, knowing that He realizes our need even before we ask. He also commands us to pray for God’s will to be done, for forgiveness, and for protection. Jesus commands us to then end our prayer with the confession that it is all for His kingdom, power, and glory. We also see in scripture Jesus’s command
are either following something that looks cool to them, but that they don’t have a natural inclination for (such as graphic/animation design)—or those who are trying to land a high-paying job (such as a medical professional). Sometimes it is the simple motivation to please others, like how my dad wanted me to study architecture. I gave it a try in high school, and found that me and numbers mix like oil and water. I learned, consequently, that anything that requires upper-level calculations—like the structures that are not supposed to fall down on your head—are not for me. So all students, especially freshmen, should keep their options open and broad. If you don’t feel right with the material, you should really ask yourself if it is the career path for you. A really great way to determine this with pure honesty and self-awareness is to take a personality test. The tests help to determine your compatibility in certain areas of the world of work. Go find Christina Martinez or Hannah Beavers in the Career Development office and they can help you out with this. I learned a lot about myself in those assessments, and I am sure you can too. I know I <3 my major—but the question is, do you?
to learn and meditate on God’s word daily. Psalm 1 says that a blessed man is one who meditates on the word day and night. When the Pharisees debate Jesus in Matthew 22:29, Jesus says they are mistaken because they do not know the scriptures, nor the power of God. As we learn and seek to understand God’s word, He begins to speak to and guide us. Living a devoted life in prayer and study allows us to know how God wants us to operate our own lives—as well as how to sow into others.
Why do you bring race into everything? Slavery was like 500 years ago!
I have very little understanding on the progress of racial inequality throughout history and believe once you are not enslaved you are immediately seen and treated equally both legally and socially.
By Elizabeth Stone,
Campus Cartoonist
Denying ourselves and being devoted to the Lord in prayer and study allows us to have an open relationship with the Lord where He will speak to us plainly. By His Spirit, God can allow us to know what is right in situations where we otherwise would have no way of perceiving the truth. Just as Jesus received all knowledge and wisdom through the Spirit and even understood the thoughts and motives of men, so God will give discernment to us if we ask and are in need. Discernment is knowing the difference between what appears to be and what actually
“Ministry is more than what most people think.” Finally, when we know and obey God’s word, we give no footholds for Satan to use against us. When Satan deceived Eve in Genesis chapter 3, he first tested her understanding of God’s word. Failing that test, Eve was then open for Satan’s advancement. However, when Satan tested Jesus in the wilderness in Matthew 4, he could find no fault in Jesus’s knowledge or understanding of the Word, for Jesus IS the Word, and so Satan was defeated and forced to flee. 1 Corinthians 9:26-27: “Therefore I run thus: not with uncertainty. Thus I fight: not as one who beats the air. But I discipline my body and bring it into subjection, lest, when I have preached to others, I myself should become disqualified.” 3. Discernment Being in ministry means dealing with people, and people are dishonest. Ministry also means coming upon a vast variety of opportunities, but not all things are beneficial to those serving the Lord. Having discernment gives us wisdom concerning people and opportunities so that we may have an understanding of things past what we can see.
is. The Bible speaks of discerning the hearts of men, discerning between spirits, and even being able to discern the times. True discernment and wisdom comes only from God; yet He will give liberally to all who ask. Proverbs 15:21 says, “Folly is joy to him who lacks sense, but a man of understanding walks straight.” 4. Doing Naturally, when God speaks to us, He expects us to actually obey what His commandments are. The sole focus of the Bible as it pertains to us is: love God, surrender our will, and obey His word. In ministry, we have to constantly be aware that we are only workers of God’s will. There is no “my ministry, my work, or what I’VE done”; it is all God’s purpose, plan, and provision. Being faithful means understanding God’s direction and will for us, and then doing it. The book of James gives us great understanding of what kind of heart a true disciple of Christ should maintain. He writes in James 2:14-17, “Faith without works is dead.” If we aren’t committed to God’s word enough
to obey it, then our so called “faith” profits us nothing. For faith is not simply “to believe”; rather, faith is the fruit of true belief. Faith is where your belief and will join together in action. Working for Jesus means knowing His will, and being faithful to fulfill every work He has given us. Before verses 2:14-17, James had already given us an example of true faith when he wrote in James 1:27, “Pure and undefiled religion before God and the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their trouble, and to keep oneself unspotted from the world.” Doing for God’s Kingdom is always about His will, and never about ours. 1 Samuel 15:22: “Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to heed, than the fat of rams.” 5. Down-Time The last “D” of ministry, and one that is as equally important as the rest, is down-time. In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. For 6 days He worked, and on the 7th, He rested. If the creator of Heaven and Earth found time to rest in a week, so should we. God established His mandate for us to find rest when He commanded the Sabbath as a weekly observance in the Old Testament. Though Jesus has fulfilled the Law, and we are free from the weight of the Law in Christ, God’s design hasn’t changed. We need to rest in Jesus. Taking time for rest is actually an act of submission. After all, the reason we don’t rest is selfish ambition or pride. “I have to get this done. I have to make this happen. I want to accomplish, I, I, I...” Ministry isn’t about our will, works, or goals. It’s about faithfulness and stewardship. Yes, there is a time when we must work and be obedient. Yes, we have been given great things to do, but we also have a God who is in charge over the whole process. God wants us at His feet in worship and personal time every day, and He wants us to take time aside from all our business to seek His presence and rest from our work every week. Without His personal power in our life and His gentle voice to guide us, where are we going anyway? I challenge you to make margins in your week and in your daily life to spend with God and just take a rest from your labors by finding peace in Him. After all, when Martha was working and distracted by many things in Luke 10:38-42, Mary simply sat at the feet of Jesus and listened as He spoke. When Martha, who was doing all the work by herself, got upset, Jesus spoke to her saying, “Martha, Martha, you are worried and troubled about many things. But one thing is needed, and Mary has chosen that good part, which will not be taken away from her.” -Go, and be blessed.

Why and How You Should Join Schreiner Sports By Sydney Churchill-Blain, Editor’s Apprentice WHY: The reasoning is quite simple; having a team of people behind you to encourage you every step you take is why you should join a Schreiner sport. Joining a Schreiner Sports team is so much more than what it seems to be. On the outside looking in, a lot of hard work and dedication is put into the process of becoming a great teammate. Although it isn’t easy, once you are on the inside of it all, it is like a huge family reunion every day; all season, you are constantly with the same people who are willing to support you and pick you up when you’re down. It also helps build self-confidence and motivation inside and outside of the athletic setting. Once you join, you become an athlete, which is automatically an empowering leadership role here on campus. Joining Schreiner Sports is a great opportunity for you to branch out into our athletic side of the community and for you to meet
new, hardworking and dedicated people just like you. It could also be great for networking, too. You’ll push yourself to be the best version of you can be in all aspects! HOW: Joining is a very easy process! It’s so easy that you could march over into a sports facility on campus and greet most of our hardworking coaches, depending on your sport of interest. Just introduce yourself and state your interest in their team! Here at Schreiner, I’m sure each coach loves being greeted by eager students who are excited about trying out for their team. If you can’t greet them face to face, then take it to the net. You could simply go to our athletics page online, find the head coach of the sport you’re interested in, and then shoot them a professional email stating honest facts about yourself and your interest and just wait for a response! -Chris Jones

We Asked, You Answered!
By Sydney Churchill-Blain, Editor’s Apprentice I met Ramsey Degollado through ACE, my freshmen studies group. When the opportunity came up to do an interview for the newspaper on an athlete, I immediately thought of Ramsey. She is probably one of the nicest athletes and freshmen that I know, making her the center of this edition’s freshman and athlete interview. Ramsey plays volleyball with Schreiner; she, along with sixteen others, is being coached under Coach Wallace and Coach Anders. Churchill-Blain: So what are you studying at Schreiner and how did you get on the volleyball team? Ramsey: I’m studying nursing. I like to help people and my aunt is a nurse. I chose Schreiner because I like the volleyball program and all the girls in it, and I heard that the nursing program is really good. I went to Samuel Clemens High School in Shertz. They [volleyball team] came to me; I was at a volleyball tournament and the coach saw me and started talking to me there. CB: What position do you play on the team?
R: Setter (which means she will run toward the net once a teammate digs the ball, since everyone else moves away from the net to prepare to hit). CB: What do you like most about Schreiner? R: All the people; everyone here is nice. Everyone says hi to each other. CB: How has college been different for you, while still playing sports? R: It’s been harder, kind of dealing with volleyball and school at the same time. CB: It’s been interesting to hear around campus what everyone’s favorite class is. So what is your favorite class this semester? R: Anatomy. CB: What about your experience so far here? R: I’m super excited to get into nursing school. It’s going to be hard but it’ll be worth it. You can see the Schreiner volleyball team in action this Thursday, September 29th on campus! Schreiner will be playing Laredo Community College at 6 p.m. in the gymnasium. Go Mountaineers!

WHO’S WHO? By Edward Miranda Student Writer What’s goin’ on, Schreiner University? It is time! It is time for another WHO’S WHO? ON CAMPUS? Ladies and gentlemen I come, sure not to disappoint! In this month’s article I, by request from you, the students and staff, interviewed Coach Meyer, the head of the Schreiner University Woman’s softball team for the last three years. And right off the bat (literally) I thought she was going to be the scariest interviewee I have ever interviewed, but I was beyond wrong. Coach Meyer is a super cool person. She is easy-going and super down to earth, with a rocking hair style to match. When you walk into her office (MFC Room 409) you won’t see her sitting on a Lay-Z Boy recliner or leaning back in a comfortable chair, but rather on a gray exercise ball—which I thought was really cool. I sat down on the couch and began the interview. Did you know that Coach Meyer is from Fort Worth, NOT Dallas, and is a graduate from Hardin-Simmons University in Abilene, Texas? She explained to me that a Schreiner softball season is forty games with a few double headers. I asked Coach Meyer what it means to her to be here at Schreiner University. “I feel I am meant to be here , to help peo-
ple and others succeed,” Meyes said. I got the feeling that Coach Meyers really loves her student athletes. I noticed that she had a big smile on her face when talking about how proud she was of all of them. “I’m not a hard person to find if someone was looking for me; either I am at the gym, mowing the game fields, or working on the softball fields and that’s where anyone one can find me,” Meyers said. I asked, “What is one of the biggest contributions you have you made while being a coach here?” With a humble and straightforward answer, she replied: “I feel as the softball team has progressed and the program has gotten a lot better and will continue to progress in tthe upcoming years.” Coach Meyers has a great attitude and a good outlook on life; and overall, the interview was fun and enjoyable. I feel like I personally got to meet yet another person at Schreiner University who is doing great things and will continue to do so while they are here. It was a home run interview! So, students and staff, another interview down; who’s next? You decide and let me know who I should interview next! So contact me at ERMira3236@schreiner. edu. My name is Edward R. Miranda, and until the next interview, I am out! C-Ya!

Film Reviews by Student Reporters
By Elliot Patterson, Student Writer Director Luke Scott manages to make a glorified Frankenstein remake not half bad. On the whole, the plot is slow to build, but delivers a punch that no one will anticipate. \ To begin, the story takes place within a massive mansion compound in the rural countryside. A corporate risk manager approaches the compound, tasked with deciding whether or not to terminate the compound’s sole research: an artificially created humanoid being—synthetic life, to be exact. All of the main characters besides Morgan (Anya Taylor) the humanoid, and Lee (Kate Mara), the corporate risk manager, have little of a character development arc, if any; nonetheless, they make the movie entertaining. The movie self identifies itself as a mystery/ science fiction movie; however, its huge dependence on suspense in the second half of the movie portrays it as more of a thriller/action movie. Suspense also plays a large role in the climax of the movie as the audience follows the perspective of Lee. In the beginning, Lee is gradually introduced to the staff members of the compound. They meet her with a mix of excitement and resentment, but most importantly, hope. They hope she will determine that their precious experiment will be worth saving. Another interesting perspective to acknowledge is the gradual loss of sympathy for Morgan. Initially, she is portrayed someone who has made a terrible mistake, yet her display of genuine remorse makes her a character to identify with. Ultimately, the moral of the movie is that perspective defines us; furthermore, we are products of our environment and act on stimuli for better or for worse. I would recommend this movie, if, for nothing else, the entertainment value. It explored unique concepts; however, it just fell short of an entirely unique portrayal.

By Emily Williams, Student Writer Paul Rudd and Craig Roberts star in this slightly cliché, slightly melodramatic, black, overall worth-it comedy about what it means for us, as human beings, to take care of one another. Ben (Rudd) is a retired writer who takes up caregiving in order to fill a void left by a previous tragedy that occurred earlier in his life. While he expected to have a distraction from the rest of his existence, who he did not expect was Trevor (Roberts), a quick-witted teenager with muscular dystrophy. Trevor has a very exact routine that he doesn’t like to stray from and he often enjoys making Ben’s life significantly more difficult. They decide to go on a road trip (yes, it’s one of those movies). They pick up Selena Gomez. Hilarity ensues. Kind of. The Fundamentals of Caring is, in a word, predictable. Some of the jokes are overdone, and the overall plot is a little dated in its nature. If you’re someone that wants something new, I probably wouldn’t suggest this movie for you. On the other hand, it wouldn’t be fair to leave out that it also has a lot of heart. The characters are genuine and relatable. While the situations they find themselves in aren’t necessarily universal, the themes that play a role in the movie definitely are. I’ve watched this movie three times with three different sets of people, and gotten something new out of it each time based on what I had been thinking about that day. It’s definitely a feelgood movie, and it has yet to fail to brighten my mood after watching it. In conclusion, the Fundamentals of Caring is a rather cliché story, explaining that the act of caring might be more complex than we think. If you’re like me, and like coming-ofage, the-lesson-is-in-the-journey, road trip movies, I highly suggest it. Heck…even if that’s not your thing, give it a shot anyways. We can all learn something from Paul Rudd.

In Review
By Marty Garcia, Editor In Chief For this week’s Food In Review, we are going to travel a little bit out of town to my stompin’ grounds of Fredericksburg, Texas. Here, a plethora of everything from comfort food to fine dining is available to all cuisine aficionados, and I have had the privilege to sample the best of pretty much all the restaurants within the city limits. But one place I go back to time and time again is Jenny’s Smoked Burgers. I had a debate on whether or not to feature a place that was so far from campus, but given the proximity of the F’burg to Schreiner, and how many students spend a day on the town here, I know how much college students will enjoy this hole-in-the-wall like I have. Jenny’s has been around for about a year, and has not slowed down since they began. Despite being right on Main Street, Jenny’s does not feel touristy. Maybe this is because their restaurant is a walk down a longish drive, and doesn’t flaunt the big open patios and live music other places have. That just makes it feel more like a local’s hangout, which I like. Anyways, now to the food. Drumroll, please. The smoked brisket burgers and tornado
fries are the reason you walk into Jenny’s. The smell of the grill are the reason you stay. Just walk right up to the front and place your order, then take a seat at any of the tables, all with a view to the open kitchen. At the exact right moment, Jenny will bring you a brown paper sack with your order inside, ready to be enjoyed. I always get the regular hamburger, with all the trimmings, just to enjoy the fresh burger and the soft bun. Oh, and a tornado fry, which is a full potatoes cut in one long swirl and fried to a consistency between a French fry and a chip. (Plus small refillable drink before tax: 9.65) My brother, however, chooses the Double Stacked Cheeseburger, and swears by it every time. (Before tax: $8) While Jenny’s is not fancy, nor exciting, or even hip, it is authentic, sincerely good food made by honest people. I see Jenny every time I go, on any day of the week, and she always has a smile. So next time you go, say Marty sent you, and let me know how you liked it!

Festival seven o clock to the Sunrise Lion’s club and the musician they had invited didn’t show up. So my talk became my performance and as I told my story I got to that connection sharing piece that I just shared with you. So that’s pretty brand new for me to realize and not a lot of people would know that. Most people assume, “Oh, she must really love Jimmy Rodgers,” or, “She really loves to preserve the music and do all these interviews,” but that’s not the driving force. CB: So what should people expect to see at the event? H: Variety and choice. You can go sit in a teepee and talk about Comanche stories or you can dance with the prehistoric drumming or you can sit and listen to Hispanic Heritage which we do between 10am and 11am. We have this ongoing tribute on the stage and we have an ongoing fair… there’s no reason why everybody wouldn’t find something that just thrills them. CB: Because it’s just more than listeningyou’re also allowing them to learn and interact. H: Interaction, exactly, and it looks like an event for kids because I do it on a Friday and invite all the schools and field trips and sometimes it gets focused on the younger crowd. My dream in the future is that every college in the state participate and send students to perform and document and enrich each other

in that way. CB: What kind of artists will be preforming this year and have performed at these events in the past? H: Oh, well the program and the schedule shows Gospel, Hispanic, song writers, a tribute to Jimmy Rodgers, Schreiner Choir… and then there’s a lot of single musicians out around the grounds that do sort of song writer circles. There’ll be a mariachi group and Terri Hendrix and Lloyd Maines, all fantastic performers in the world. They come and hang out all day before their concert in the evening…so again it’s back to that eclectic variety. CB: How can the students and the community get involved? H: Two main areas are in volunteerism which is huge in our culture right now and Schreiner has a focus on that so we have a little learning lab right on this campus and then membership, our membership starts at $20 and students are invited to be free members if they will just sign up!” Texas Heritage Music Day will be this Friday, September 30th at the Robert-Lewis Pavilion between the times 9 AM to 1:30 PM. In the evening will be a Terri Hendrix and Lloyd Maines concert at 7:30 in the Callioux Activities Center.

Flag Is Up trying to parody Chekhov with Vanya et al, but rather that he “[took] Chekhov scenes and characters and put them into a blender.” “In a way, the theme for the play comes from Chekov, too,” says director Dr. Claudia Sullivan. “Families getting together that…they’re not great people, they’re not terrible people, they’re not convicts, they’re not depraved, but they have that attitude of ‘my life could have been something else—and it’s not—and it won’t be,’ and that’s what we see in this play, too.” Sullivan went on to explain, though, that there were some very key differences between the two playwrights. “Durang deals with it in a very 2010’s kind of way…and his is much more overtly comic, but you can tell he’s done a lot of reading of Chekov.” Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike will be performed in the Hanzsen black box theater (next to The Oaks apartments) on Octo-
