Campus events for March 11-13: Live! From the Last Night of My Life, Baseball at home, and more!

These are the events happening around campus for Fri., March 11 through Sun., March 13. BREATHE before Finals week events are listed separately here

Events for Fri., March 11:

Intramural Yoga, Athletics bldg., room 3025
Fri., March 11: 11:30 a.m. – 12:20 p.m.
Take time out from your day to rejuvenate and build core strength. Free to students, faculty, and staff.

Small Ensemble Recital, Music bldg. 818
Fri., March 11: 12:30-1:30 p.m.
The Student Ensemble Recital is considered to be a talent showcase for our dedicated music students at Shoreline Community College. This is their time to shine in the spotlight and to have an opportunity to perform in front of their peers. This is an invaluable experience for our students to build confidence musically through focused preparation, and the opportunity to perform in front of an audience helps them develop their stage presence.

The performances begin at 12:30 in Room #818 in SCC Music Building 800. Everyone is welcome to attend in support of our student performers.

Job Seekers’ Roundtable, Workforce Education (Ground Fl. FOSS)
Fri., March 11: 1-2:30 p.m.
office
Join us this Fri., March 11 for a Job Seekers’ Roundtable designed to get you placed through Accountemps! We’re in the Workforce Education Office (room 5116 in the bottom floor of FOSS, 5000 bldg.) from 1-2:30 p.m.

Are you ready to get a paycheck? Is it a temporary job you have in mind – that is, just something to make do until the dream job arrives — or is it something more permanent in an office setting? Either way, if you stop by Roundtable this Friday, your chances of becoming employed very soon will increase dramatically. Below is an excerpt from a very nice card I once received from Roundtable participant, Kathy Tiedman:

“My contact with your speaker from Accountemps facilitated contact with a recruiter at Robert Half and ultimately led to my placement in a long term, temporary position.”

Kathy went on to say that the experience boosted her confidence and has added some attractive cache to her resume. And wouldn’t you know it, Elizabeth Goodnow from Accountemps/Robert Half Agency is our featured guest for this Friday! Please come by, bring your resume and business card, and arrange for a one-on-one with Elizabeth. She and the folks at Accountemps have been awesome over the past couple years and have landed many Roundtablers much needed employment.

We’ll of course have coffee and treats on hand, compliments of Central Market. Have a friend or family member looking for work? Please bring them along.

See you this Friday – and as always, Good Luck Out There!

“Live! From the Last Night of My Life,” Campus Theater
Fri., March 11: 7:30 p.m.
live last night
Shoreline Community College Theater Department is proud to present Seattle based Wayne Rawley’s “Live! From the Last Night of My Life.”

Doug Sample is a man who has decided his experiment with life has, for all intents and purposes, failed. He has achieved nothing, accomplished nothing, and has nothing except his graveyard shift at a local gas station and Mini-Mart. He has decided that the best thing for everyone would be if he shot himself in the head, and he is planning to do it right in front of the Mini-Mart’s security cameras at the end of this, his last shift. But before the night is over, Doug will be visited by his past, his present, his possible futures, and some particularly annoying customers as he struggles with some of life’s most challenging questions like “Why should I go on?”, “What does it all mean?”, and perhaps most importantly, “Did I remember to change the cherry syrup in the Slushie Machine?”

Written by Wayne Rawley and directed by Debra Pralle.

Theater Department’s 2016 Opera Workshop “A Little Night Music”
Campus theater
Fri., Feb. 19, 7:30 p.m.

Sat., Feb. 20, 7:30 p.m.
Sun., Feb. 21, 3 p.m.
Tickets are $12-18 at brownpapertickets.com.

night music
Shoreline Community College’s Musical theater department presents their 2016 Opera Workshop with Stephen Sondheim’s 19th century romantic waltz-based operetta/musical,  “A Little Night Music!”

Clive Barnes in the New York Times called the musical “heady, civilized, sophisticated and enchanting.”

The Telegraph wrote that “Sondheim’s lyrics are often superbly witty, his music here, mostly in haunting waltz-time, far more accessible than is sometimes the case. The score positively throbs with love, regret and desire.”

Winner of a Tony for Best Musical and Best Musical Score!

Sondheim creates a stunning tour de force when he takes Ingmar Bergman’s comedy of manners, Smiles of a Summer Night, and turns it into a musical of masterful execution and elegance. Winner of four Tony Awards including Best Musical and Best Musical Score, this is a musical work that has forever entranced the world of theatre.

Set in 1900 Sweden, A Little Night Music explores the tangled web of affairs centered around actress Desirée Armfeldt and the men who love her: a lawyer by the name of Fredrik Egerman and the Count Carl-Magnus Malcom. When the traveling actress performs in Fredrik’s town, the estranged lovers’ passion rekindles. This strikes a flurry of jealousy and suspicion between Desirée, Fredrik, Fredrick’s wife, Anne, Desirée’s current lover, the Count, and the Count’s wife, Charlotte. Both men — as well as their jealous wives — agree to join Desirée and her family for a weekend in the country at Desirée’s mother’s estate. With everyone in one place, infinite possibilities of new romances and second chances bring endless surprises.

A Little Night Music is full of hilarity, witty and heartbreakingly moving moments of adoration, regret and desire. This dramatic musical celebration of love is perfect to showcase our talented cast of singers and actors, with it’s harmonically-advanced score and masterful orchestrations. And, it contains Sondheim’s popular song, the haunting “Send in the Clowns.”

Music and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim
Book by Hugh Wheeler
Producer and Music Director – Charles Enlow
Stage Director – Teresa Thuman
Conductor – Bruce Monroe
Choreographer – Lee Ann Hittenberger
