Final weekend to see The Producers! May 19-22

The Producers has gotten rave reviews, and this is the final weekend to see it – so come check out the show and support our wonderfully talented Theater Department.

The final weekend of the Theater’s production of “The Producers; A Mel Brooks Musical” is this Fri., May 19 through Sun., May 21. Tickets are available at the door or at Brown Paper Tickets.
producers
The Producers is based around the character of Max Bialystock, a down and out Broadway producer whose latest work flopped on opening night. Max, plagued by his former success and scrambling to stay afloat, experiences a change in fortune when downtrodden accountant, Leo Bloom, discovers there is money to be made in Max’s theatrical failure. As a result, the two formerly defeated business men form an unlikely union with the goal of creating the world’s worst musical.

The plot develops as the duo enlists the help of ridiculous and often farcical characters on the way such as former Nazi and on-going Third Reich enthusiast Franz Liebkind, Ulla the blonde bombshell secretary/receptionist and the flamboyant homosexual director Roger De Bris. As a result of the characters’ combined brainpower and ludicrous behavior, “Spring Time for Hitler” is born in Broadway.

10:30a-11:30a: KNOW YOUR RIGHTS WITH POLICE (Room 9208)
Join Lila Silverstein of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) for this informative workshop and get to know your rights! We rely on the police to keep us safe and treat us fairly regardless of race, gender, ethnicity, origin, or religion. This session provides tips for interacting with local law enforcement.

12:30p-2:30p: WALKOUT – FILM (Room 9208)
The 2006 film Walkout is a dramatization of the historic 1968 walkout in Los Angeles, a Chicanx student-led protest responding to untenable learning conditions and systemic racism in the schools. This film highlights the experiences of students in East Los Angeles protesting academic prejudice and dire school conditions. An award-winning film producer and community activist, Moctesuma Esparza, helped organize the 1968 walkout and was arrested and jailed along with 12 others for conspiracy to disturb the peace. This film helps center the organization of Chicanx students in the struggle for a voice in activism.
