Come enjoy the Hungry Games at F1rst Friday As the holidays approach, it is time to embrace the season of giving and togetherness. On Friday, Nov. 7 from 5:30–7:30 p.m., the Downtown Statesboro Development is collaborating with the Averitt Center for the Arts to host The Hungry Games for the Arts: A chance to participate in a number of community art projects as well as contribute to a canned food drive for the hungry. Businesses downtown will be paired with local artists to facilitate one of 12 community art projects, including a chewing gum mural, a bottle cap Collage and even a dance class at the Statesboro Youth Ballet Studio. All members of the public are invited to take part in the fun. To participate in the art project, each person must bring a canned food item to the Courthouse Lawn on Nov.
7. After taking part in an art project, each person will receive a raffle ticket and be entered to win one of the many prizes that have been donated by local businesses. The more activities that you participate in, the better chance you have of winning a prize! “The goal of The Hungry Games is to bring hands-on art to the community and, in turn, distribute donated food to feed the hungry”, said Anastasia James, Director of Art After Hours for the Averitt Center for the Arts. So come get in touch with your creative side for a good cause! There will be food, a variety of local vendors and opportunities for the whole family.

Touring comedy group will have you howling Local Humane Society welcomes "Raise the Woof" for first comedy fundraising event “It was just on the burden of these people who were kind enough and had big enough hearts to put the effort — and most of the time a lot of their own funding — into helping. And so I said, ‘You know what? We’ll focus on that.’” As a fundraiser, Raise the Woof is nothing to shake your tail at. Uloth said that for many of the facilities Raise the Woof works with—which range from standard rescue shelters to more exotic animal sanctuaries— the comedy show becomes their biggest and most successful revenue-generating event. They average about $6,000 per show; their record was $65,000 in one event.
What it is
If the Statesboro Humane Society were to completely sell out, they would raise
Canadian comic James Uloth, one of the three comedians who will be appearing at the Fridaynight show, started Raise the Woof after having spent time performing for cancer fundraising comedy tours. Uloth said he kept having animal rescues approach him, asking if he’d be interested in doing something similar to help them out. As a longtime animal lover, Uloth did some research and found that most animal rescue centers — including the governmentrun facilities — are very underfunded when it comes to meeting the needs of their communities. “I think I was immature in thinking that the government and my tax dollars were actually helping these animals, and they weren’t,” Uloth said.
The Local need
Raise the Woof Where? The Russell Union Ballroom on Georgia Southern's campus When? Nov. 7, 7–10 p.m. How much? $20 per person, which covers admission, heavy snacks and non-alchoholic drinks Why? To raise money for the Humane Society of Statesboro & Bulloch County
$7,200 on ticket sales alone, to say nothing of donations from animalloving guests at the event. Cheyenne Waters, the secretary at the HSSBC, said that all proceeds of the event will be funneled toward two projects: the spay and neuter program and the rescue program. The rescue program is fairly selfexplanatory: it finds volunteers and foster homes for pets who need a place to go. The program does its best to cover the veterinary needs of the animal and all of its supplies—food, litter, etc.—to ease the burden of the foster “parent.” This keeps animals off the street and out of kill shelters. The spay and neuter program works toward the same goal from the opposite end, educating and encouraging county residents to fix their pets to prevent more animals from being put down due to overpopulation. The program is also working toward something called the “$20 Fix,” which would provide low cost spay and neuter surgery for pet owners who might not otherwise be able to afford it. In order to cover the rest of the procedures’ costs, however, the HSSBC needs funding, which the Raise the Woof event hopes to help with.
“People really enjoy it,” Uloth said. “It’s the reason we come back every year—we bring quite a good product to town, and people tend to help out a lot. They’re very generous, and they get a great comedy show in return.” Uloth himself selects the performers who join the rotating cast of comedians each year. Though he has comedians approach him all the time to join the show, he makes his selections based on more than their routines. He looks for good team players and road trip buddies, since the comedians end up spending lots of time together for the tour. Most importantly, they must, like Uloth (who owns a “maniac” rescue cat named Stanley), genuinely love animals. At the show, viewers can expect three performers covering two 45-minute acts. The humor stays on the clean side, but this by no means detracts from how funny it is. Comedians Sid Davis and Christian Saslo will be joining Uloth, who has headlined in comedy festivals as far away as Scotland. Don’t expect all the jokes to be pet-themed; Uloth said the comedians integrate their usual routines for the performance. Tickets for Raise the Woof are $20 per person and can be purchased at the door.w

If the dog days of fall have been getting you down, make plans for an event Nov. 7 that’s sure to have you howling with hilarity: the Raise the Woof comedy show, a fundraising night of laughs to help out Statesboro’s furriest residents at the Humane Society of Statesboro and Bulloch County. Raise the Woof is an internationally touring comedy show aimed at raising money for animal care groups across the U.S. and Canada. The tour just kicked off its fourth year in September. While it has done most of its work in Canada, the states near the northern border and the Midwest, the tour is gradually creeping Southward to increase its impact.

"Sometimes you just have to do it yourself": The Movers & Shakers In the business world, movers and shakers are people who take initiative. They set the balls rolling and make things happen. While this isn’t the reason Southern groove-rock band the Movers & Shakers adopted the phrase for their band’s name, they definitely live up to the meaning. Only two years after coming together, the group has put together their first full-length and entirely self-produced album, to be released Nov. 11. The Movers & Shakers came together in 2012 under the moniker Country Line High but, at a friend’s insistence, changed their name to match the title of one of their first songs, “Movers & Shakers.” By that time the four members—Jesse Riner, Mike Peadan, Chandler Woods and Nicholaus Wilkerson—were already in the process of assembling original music for their first album while juggling gigs, promoting their shows and traveling across the southeast for performances. “One of the biggest challenges has been [being] able to get paying gigs down here in the South, without the largest art scene and demand for original music,” said Riner, the band’s lead guitarist who happens to hail from Statesboro. Not that they let this stop them; in fact, the band made such a name for themselves early on that they secured a spot opening for the Charlie Daniels Band during the 2013 Vidalia Onion Festival. Since then, the group
has seen a rise in popularity. Riner said that the number of gigs increased noticeably after their performance with the big-name band, and that the Movers & Shakers have been playing and traveling consistently throughout the southeast since May. And somehow, in the midst of all this travel, the four musicians have found the time to record an album. The production journey has been a long and tumultuous one for the Movers & Shakers, who began the recording process back in 2012, shortly after they came together. They wrote most of the music and began recording with a studio down in Savannah, but for personal reasons the people in charge of the studio had to leave town and the album was left unfinished. The band was left with the hectic task of recovering their material and re-recording with the salvaged master tracks. But once they had their material back, the band flew through the recording process. Chandler Woods, the band’s rhythm guitarist and a GSU grad, used the know-how he’d picked up in his music technology minor to set up their sound room and take care of the details of recording, mixing and mastering the tracks. “That would honestly show how awesome Chandler has been for us in this whole process,” Riner said. “He really soaked up a lot of knowledge at GSU, and it’s been able to really, properly engineer this thing for us.”
In fact, once they had resumed the recording process at Woods’ house took just a few months, compared to the year spent with the recording studio in Savannah. “Sometimes you just have to do it yourself,” said Riner with a laugh. That might as well be the band’s tagline. On top of booking their own gigs and the other tasks involved in self-managing a band, the Movers & Shakers are in the process of promoting their own album using every avenue available to them. They’re also making plans for their second album; while their first album was stalled because of difficulties in Savannah, the Movers & Shakers put so much new material together that they can start recording their second album as soon as this one is off the ground. Despite how tenacious they are in their management and dedication to their music, the Movers & Shakers don’t let their serious side bleed into their music. Their music is infused with carefree energy, dominated by a sense of well-being and fun. As Riner said, it’s meant to make people want to dance and shake—the true origin of the band’s name. The self-titled album will debut on most major music sharing sites on Nov. 11, and the band will send it off in style at the Ampersand bar in Savannah on Nov. 8 after their morning performance at Baldwin Park for Savannah’s Rock and Roll marathon.w

Broadway's Next H!t Musical
The Government Inspector
Sordid Lives FRANK FORTUNE/special
SPECIAL
Nov. 7, 7:30 p.m. Special to Connect If you're thoroughly sick of "Let it Go," this could be your chance to help create Broadway's next big musical number. The Georgia Southern University Performing Arts Center will welcome the nationally touring show Broadway's Next H!t Musical on Nov. 6 at 7:30 p.m. The awards-style comedy improv show allows the audience to submit song ideas for Broadway's next big hit. The show has earned side-splitting reviews from critics across the U.S., including one in which Michael Morain of the Des Moines Register said he laughed "so hard that for a scary split-second, I worried I might actually throw up on the person in front of me." Broadway’s Next H!t Musical is the only unscripted theatrical awards show. During the show improvisers gather made-up, hit song suggestions from the audience and then create a spontaneous evening of music, humor and laughter. The audience votes for their favorite song and watches as the cast turns it into a full blown improvised musical — complete with memorable characters, witty dialogue and plot twists galore. Under the direction of improv
veterans Rob Schiffman and Deb Rabbai, Broadway’s Next H!t Musical has been hailed as “brilliant” by TheaterWeek and “remarkable” by the New York Post. “The coolest thing about Broadway’s Next H!t Musical is that the performance that we’ll get here in Statesboro will be completely unique to us and the town,” said Stacie McDaniel, house manager for the PAC. “We’ve already prepped the performers on some of the local traditions and culture and they will be in the lobby before the performance taking suggestions from our audience. This is a chance to really be involved in the performance and watch something that’s completely new and fresh and specific to us.” To give you just a taste of what you might expect, cast member Deb Rabbai reflected on one of her more memorable performances for Connect: "We did a musical in Tennessee where I sang my entire song while sitting atop the shoulders of our tallest member, who is 6'7", while he danced. Believe me, he and I remember that song very well." Tickets for this performance are currently on sale at the PAC Box Office. Tickets are $24 for adults, $21 for faculty and staff, and $10 for students.w
Nov. 7-8, 7:30 p.m.; Nov. 9, 2 p.m. Special to Connect The Averitt STARs are bringing Del Shores’ colorful, Southern-fried comedy Sordid Lives to the Emma Kelly Theater. The lives of sisters Latrelle, LaVonda and Sissy are unsettled further than usual as they are burdened with planning the funeral of their sister Peggy. In addition to handling her personal affairs, they must keep quiet Peggy’s love affair with amputee G.W. from his conniving, vengeful wife, Noleta. The plot thickens as the family must face the reality of both Latrelle’s son, Ty, and their brother Boy’s confused sexuality. “The plot of this show centers around this dysfunctional South Texas family, the Ingrams,” said Gage Crook, director of the show and Georgia Southern senior. “There are certainly many difficulties the characters in this play must overcome — many of them dealing with learning to love and accept one another for who they are.” Crook, along with the cast, is looking forward to seeing the audience reaction to some of the script’s touchier subjects, such as Latrell’s continued denial of Ty’s openly gay lifestyle as a soap opera star and the
fact that their brother, Boy, is serving a sentence in a mental ward for his unyielding conviction that he is country and western singer Tammy Wynette. “Playwright Del Shores does a fantastic job of blending comedy with the more serious, intense moments which take place,” Gage said. “It's a wonderful way for audiences to examine themselves in a way that's approachable and laughable,” he continues. “While there are some intense moments, the powers of love and laughter shine through in the end.” There are many similarities between this performance and the 2000 comedy film, starring Olivia Newton-John and Delta Burke, and the TV series, which premiered in 2008. However, plot of the performance more closely resembles that of the film as the TV series was written as a prequel to the film. This show is for mature audiences only. No one under 18 years of age is permitted unless accompanied by an adult. Tickets for the show are $13 for adult non-members and $12 for adult members. To reserve your ticket please call the Averitt Center for the Arts at (912) 212-2787 during box office hours, or purchase online at www.averittcenterforthearts. org. Box office hours are Tuesday–Friday from noon–5:30 p.m.w
SPECIAL
Nov. 12-19, 7:30 p.m.; 2 p.m. Sunday Special to Connect The Theatre & Performance program at Georgia Southern University brings the fall semester to a close with Nikoli Gogol’s comedic masterpiece The Government Inspector, Nov. 12–19 in the Center of Art & Theatre’s Black Box Theatre, 233 Pittman Drive. Performances begin at 7:30 p.m. with a 2 p.m. Sunday matinee. When the locals in a small Russian village learn that an undercover government inspector is coming for a surprise visit, an unfortunate case of mistaken identity sends the village spiraling into a world of panic and greed. The Government Inspector is as relevant a satire on immoral leadership as when it was written in 1836. When the corrupt government of a small town mistakes a down-on-his-luck gambler for the secret inspector sent to investigate them, there is no end to what they will not do to get on his good side. While the same abuse of power Gogol sought to expose and ridicule is alive and well in the world today, he still invites us to laugh and laugh hard at its expense. Vladimir Nabokov refers to Gogol’s play as “the greatest play written in the Russian language” and
this new adaptation by American playwright by Jeffery Hatcher gives the play a contemporary edge that highlights the timeless nature of this farcical roller coaster ride of bribes, seduction, and greed. Gogol’s play is so funny that you almost forget what a scathing and social commentary it is. A cast of 25 introduces new faces to the Georgia Southern stage and includes audience favorites Greg Hernandez, Chryssie Lewis, Teundras Oaks, Matessia Murry, Alan Waters, Laura Henry and Brad Wells. Don’t miss this mad-capped farce which is witty, smart and wildly satirical. The Government Inspector exposes the corruption of a provincial town with biting hilarity. Student and youth tickets are $5; faculty, staff and community tickets are $10. All seating is general admission. The house opens at 7 p.m., and audience members are encouraged to arrive no later than 7:15 p.m. to ensure good seats. The balcony will serve as overflow seating.

City Campus reveals plans for 'Fab Lab' When the Fab Lab, devoted to developing ideas for new products and businesses, opens in the building next to Georgia Southern University's existing City Campus in downtown Statesboro, the alley between the two will be transformed into an open-ended "outdoor room" with a glass roof. At night, the alley off East Main Street will glow white with LED lighting, changing colors to, quite literally, "Go Blue!" on occasion.
Studio 3 Design Group's principal architect Richard Hinman Jr., project manager Paul A. Sandifer Jr. and interior designer Jennifer Wallace Jamison shared the concept drawings last week with City Council, which unanimously approved. Benches, brick pavers underfoot and the curved glass letting in natural light above, Sandifer explained, will help create the "outdoor room" effect. Removable bollards at the alley entrances on

East Main and East Vine streets will bar car and truck traffic. Planters and a "green" or sustainability wall, covered in plants, will frame the edges. "This would totally open a doorway between East Main Street and Vine Street and also would be an entry lobby to the City Campus itself," Sandifer said. The covered alley will connect the original City Campus building, which will serve as the public entrance, to the Fab Lab and Business Incubator building, where a card key system will allow only member entrepreneurs, faculty or escorted guests to enter. At times as part of larger events on East Main Street or East Vine Street, the alley should be usable year-round for occasions such as art sales and musical performances, Sandifer said.
Emotional ties The university challenged the architects to help create emotional ties between City Campus and Georgia Southern's main campus, said Dominique Halaby, the director of the university's Bureau of Business Research and Economic Development. Having students maintain the green wall is one strategy. Changing the glow from light-emitting diodes is another. The alley should look pretty in soft, white light most nights, Halaby said. "Except, when Georgia Southern wins, or at commencement or on key events, we want that thing lit blue so you have this blue alley that ties back into the core of what it means to be home to the greatest university in the country," he said. "We want to have that emotional connection extended back into the campus for our students."

Trojans fall to Eagles, Bobcats set to pounce and three points—a field goal set up by a fumble and a short field for the Trojans. At the end of the night, Troy only had 154 total yards, nine first downs, and 13 passing yards. That’s a good night of work. Personally, I was a little disappointed in the size and Brown energy of the crowd, but I understand Thursday nights are harder to attend for everyone except students. However, we need to do better if we want Georgia Southern to be taken seriously as a big time program. There were way too many empty seats. And I have a bad feeling the next home game (Thanksgiving weekend) is going to pose the same challenges, so feel free to prove me wrong. From this point forward, the schedule gets tougher. The Eagles’ last five games have been against teams with a combined record of 8-35. Granted, Southern has done what good teams are supposed to do to bad teams as the Eagles have won those five games by an average margin of 24.2 points. But the final three games of the season are going to get much harder. This week, Southern travels to another time zone for the third time this season. The Eagles won’t have to go quite as far away as New Mexico State, but Texas State isn’t exactly a

Last time Georgia Southern made the trip to San Marcos, the Bobcats overcame what seemed to be a fairly comfortable halftime lead for the Eagles to blow Southern out in the second half en route to a 50-35 win. That loss eliminated Georgia Southern from the 2005 FCS playoffs. This season, Texas State’s (5-3, 3-1) only losses have come to Navy, Illinois and UL-Lafayette—all pretty darn good teams. The Bobcats’ conference wins have come over Idaho, UL-Monroe and New Mexico State. Southern does not need to take this team lightly. Hopefully, the extra two days after a Thursday game last week will help

the Eagles. At this point in the season, everybody has bumps and bruises, so an extra couple of days between games can only help. With a win, Texas State becomes bowl eligible and leaves Lafayette as the only undefeated in conference play. With a Georgia Southern win, the Eagles move to 8-2 overall, remain undefeated in the Sun Belt and strengthen their case for that everso-small chance at a bowl invitation, given there’s a shortage of bowl-eligible teams at the end of the season. Tattler Prediction: Texas State comes out fired up and jumps ahead early, but the Eagles battle back and win a close one. Eagles 31, Bobcats 27w

Another game, another win. Georgia Southern continues to take care of business against teams it should beat. The Eagles hosted Troy for a Thursday-night matchup and methodically dismantled the Trojans by a Alex score of 42-10 and improved to 7-2 overall and 6-0 in Sun Belt play. Troy fumbled the opening kickoff, Southern scored three plays later and the Eagles were pretty much in cruise control from that point forward. Offensively, it was a team effort in every sense of the term. Southern racked up 421 yards on the ground, but no individual topped the 100-yard mark. The Eagles had four players with at least 55 rushing yards and averaged 6.7 yards per carry as a team. Kevin Ellison led the way with 99 yards and three touchdowns on 13 carries. Tattler Game Ball: This week’s game ball goes to the Georgia Southern defense. The offense has gotten most of the love all year, but coming off a less-than-stellar effort against Georgia State, the defense put together its best performance of the season. Until a 74-yard, garbage-time touchdown drive by Troy in the final minutes of the game, Southern had only given up 80 total yards of offense

Turtle Rock Studios has already revealed that two if its monsters in "Evolve" will be known as the Goliath and the Kraken, but that's only the tip of the big, ugly iceberg when it comes to the game's promised baddies. finished product, even in the alpha state. The game takes place on an imaginary planet where humans have traveled to colonize in the future.

Players will find themselves in dense jungles and forest full of foliage and foreign creatures in Evolve. The
audio and music complements the stunning graphics very well. Similar to Turtle Rock Studios' previous Left 4 Dead series, players will enjoy the need to work together as a team while playing as the Hunter. The Monster, on the other hand, is a lone wolf but is given powerful moves to balance out the numbers. The alpha was tarnished by some server connection issues on the first day of its release, but that is common among all online games in this day in age. However, the 2K servers were fixed promptly and gamers were able to find games shortly after the release with no problems on both the Xbox One and PC versions. PlayStation 4 was hindered by a firmware update with the PlayStation itself, but the alpha's time frame has been extended to fix this issue and give the Sony gamers time to play as well. Evolve provides some of the most fun I've had on a game this year. Competitive, combative team mechanics are a breath of fresh air. This game has lived up to the hype and deserves every award it’s been presented: Best of E3 2014's "Best of Show," "Best Console Game," "Best Action Game" and "Best Online Multiplayer.� I cannot wait for Feb. 10 to have a review of the finished version, but it looks like Turtle Rock Studios already has a Game of the Year award coming to them soon.w

City Campus renovations The existing City Campus space will also undergo renovations. The GSU Small Business Development Center, now in rented space near the hospital, will then move into this building, which is already home to the Bureau of Business Research and Economic Development. That phase of the renovations should begin within a few weeks, with the more-extensive construction in the Fab Lab building and alley likely to start at the end of the year or early in 2015, Halaby said. Chosen to serve as a construction management-type contractor, BAK Builders is helping to scale the
SPECIAL TO CONNECT
Topped by a glass covering, the alley is proposed to become usable space tying the expanded Georgia Southern University City Campus and new Fab Lab building together on East Main Street project to remain within budget, he said. The grants pay for the construction, but not for all the equipment that will be needed. So the city, the arts center and the university are working together "to leverage more moneys," Halaby said in an interview. Planners hope the renewed City
Campus will be complete by August. "We're dreaming big and we have a great opportunity to really make a signature location for not just what it is that we're doing in terms of entrepreneurship and business innovation, but for the community as a whole," Halaby said.w

After the city and university proposed the City Campus expansion plans as a shared project, the U.S. Economic Development Administration last year awarded them a $1.1 million grant for the construction. With the city having provided a partial match of about $800,000 through its purchase of the former Yard & Haus building at 62 E. Main St. from Farmers & Merchants Bank and the existing City Campus next door from the Downtown Statesboro Development Authority, the total building and renovation cost will be almost $1.9 million. The Averitt Center for the Arts also has a share in the plan, with the twostory back portion of the City Campus building, which is now the Averitt Center's dance studio, to become the Art Incubator, with ceramics and twodimensional arts facilities and an open studio, plus smaller, enclosed studios to rent to artists. The back portion of the former Yard & Haus building will become the Business Incubator, with offices rentable to entrepreneurs for startup businesses. Near the middle, plans

show a table in an open-sided area called the "think tank." Up front is the fabrication laboratory proper, with 3-D printers that will "print," from layers of plastic fibers, prototypes or improvements. Other rooms will house water jet cutting machines and CNC (computer numerical control) routers for shaping materials such as foam and wood. "It's all going to be glassed, open so people can view and watch what's happening in there," Hinman said.
