SUMMARY:The Break-Up Show Dress Rehearsal
DESCRIPTION:Free and open-to-the-public dress rehearsal for The Break-Up Show: Episode Six. This comedy troupe transforms the indignities of bad dates and break-up drama into the sort of comedy that may make you feel like it was worth the pain. \nThe Break-Up Show troupe invites everyone to stop in for a behind-the-scenes look at how comedy is born from romantic devastation. Watch a “warts and all” dress rehearsal as they prepare for their February 11th — one-night only — appearance at the New Daisy on Beale Street featuring music by The McStays and Robby. Only the live portions of the show will be rehearsed and\, just like in a real rehearsal\, the cast will be stopping and starting\, messing up\, and most likely breaking up (with laughter) for most of the evening. Stop in for a preview! \nThe rehearsal coincides with the opening of “We Need to Talk\,” an open-call exhibition of break-up art and artifacts at 422 N. Cleveland from 5-8 p.m.

SUMMARY:Memphis Women in Film Event Series
DESCRIPTION:Quarterly event series presented by Indie Memphis and Crosstown Arts \nFebruary topic: Our Monster\, Our Selves: Monstrous Feminine in Horror Film — A Talk by Dr. Marina Levina.\n \nIn this talk\, Dr. Marina Levina will walk us through a brief history of representations of women’s bodies in horror film.

Some of the films she will discuss include Cronenberg’s The Brood\, the first Alien film\, Jennifer’s Body\, and Carrie\, amongst others. \nDr. Marina Levina is an Associate Professor of Communication at the University of Memphis. Her scholarship centers on cultural studies of science\, technology and medicine\, and critical media studies.

Amongst other books\, she is the first editor of Monster Culture in the 21st Century: A Reader (Bloomsbury Academic Press\, 2013). Dr. Levina frequently teaches Monster Films\, Gender and Film\, and Rhetoric of Pop Culture\, as well as graduate seminars in media and technologies studies. \nNetworking at 6:30 p.m.; speaker presentation begins at 7:00 pm.\n Complimentary food and drink. \n\n\n\n\nMemphis Women in Film Social Links\nEvent invite link: https://www.facebook.com/events/1565885570106443/\nFacebook: https://facebook.com/memphiswomeninfilm/\nTwitter: https://twitter.com/MEMwomeninfilm\nInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/memwomeninfilm/
