is a full-length entirely scripted and composed as a senior thesis project by

wind down.
JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR
seems especially fitting that the rock opera, created as a concept album at
the end of the turbulent '60s, should have at its center a social and political
rebel. Jesus' meteor-like rise in renown provides, as the title suggests, a
parallel to contemporary celebrity worship. Christ's final days are dramatized
with emotional intensity, thought-provoking edge, and explosive theatricality.
Propelled by a stirring score, by turns driving and majestic, satirical and
tender, Jesus Christ Superstar illuminates the transcendent power of the human
spirit with a passion that goes straight to the heart.
Performance dates: Wednesday, April 25 through Saturday, April 28 at 8:00 p.m. and Sunday, April 29 at 2:00 p.m. Admission: $10/ $5 with BC student ID. For tickets call 617.552.4004.

WISHING WELL &HOPE: A COLLABORATION
By Michael Brennan, Byron Gartrell, Alicia Gibson, Meredith Grant, Adam Greef,
Erica Hass, Yusuke Igarashi, Rebecca Lesiak, Christopher
McKinley, Jonathan O'Connor and Sandra Salkic.
This sculpture results from a creative collaboration of undergraduate students
in the FA Sculpture Projects class at Boston College taught by Professor Mark
Cooper. The artists, who conceived the work after September 11, 2001 as a testament
to their hope and trust in one another, chose to shape recycled pieces of white
pine from their professor's past projects in a
random fashion into a unified sculpture. They divided into two groups, each
responsible for assembly with screws and wood glue, one half of the "egg-shaped"
form. They then painted the exterior. The final form of the sculpture with its
ascending spiral is a visual metaphor for HOPE.
SCENE PAINTING DEMONSTRATION
Painting for the theater incorporates techniques that began in the Italian Renaissance
and have been used for hundreds of years. For any given production, a scenic

smaller samples will also be available for kids to try out. Put on your paint
