SUMMARY:No Shame Theatre
DESCRIPTION:No Shame Theatre is an experiential performance lab where writers\, performers and audience are constantly changing roles. Anything can happen and usually does in this late night venue for original work. We take the first 15 pieces to walk in the door and there are only three rules: pieces must be original (no copyright violations)\, short (five minutes or less)\, and not break anything (including the law). Inside those rules you can do pretty much anything you’re interested in trying in front of a live audience–plays\, monologues\, songs\, dance\, poetry\, mime\, juggling\, comedy\, tragedy\, Improvisation\, dada\, magic–we’ve even seen people do floral arrangements! Pieces are accepted starting at 10 pm\, doors open at 10:30 pm\, and the show starts at 11 pm\, running on average an hour and a half.

SUMMARY:Sarah Juliet Lauro Reading and Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Sarah Juliet Lauro\, Ph.D.\, is assistant professor of hemispheric literature at the University of Tampa. She has written widely on zombies in literature and film\, but her new work focuses on commemorations of slave rebellion in various forms. \n\nLauro’s first book\, The Transatlantic Zombie: Slavery\, Rebellion\, and Living Death (2015) showcases her expertise in both postcolonial literature of the Western hemisphere and horror film. She followed this with the publication of an edited volume\, Zombie Theory: A Reader (2018)\, and the slim book Kill the Overseer! The Gamification of Slave Revolt (2020). Lauro enjoys collaborative scholarship and has edited collections both for book publication and for special issues of journals. She has also done some writing for magazines and online outlets\, most recently for Art Papers and Monument Lab Bulletin. \n\nLauro received the 2015 Tyler Rigg award for the year’s best essay in the international journal Disability Studies Quarterly. \n\nSponsored by the Department of English and Creative Writing and the Dee Hull Everist Visiting Speaker Fund.

SUMMARY:Hollins Playwright's Lab is thrilled to present our 2025 Winter Festival of New Works!
DESCRIPTION:FRIEDA \nWritten by ArLynn Parker. Directed by Vanna Richardson.\n\n“The family I’d been tricked into choosing was never going to accept me.”\n\nThis one-act play revolves around a young woman wandering through a near-lifeless forest she wants to escape. As she speculates directly to the audience about what brought her to this place\, she reveals herself to be the stepmother to a pair of challenging children. The expectations of what she imagined her life to be and what she was saddled with collide as she recounts her story. Taking place in the woods in which she lost her way\, details of her childhood\, loveless marriage\, and the desperate hunger that drove her to make the most important decision of her life become clear. Ultimately wrestling with questions of what it means to be a “chosen family\,” she attempts to set the record straight.\n\n \nNUPTIAL MASS\nWritten by Ben Abbott. Directed by David Veatch. \nJeff has been looking forward to getting married his whole life. But when his fiancée doesn’t show up at the church on the morning of the wedding\, he scrambles to figure out where she is and why. What will it take for the wedding to go forward as planned? Is he prepared for the secrets that will come to light as he tries?\n\nContent warning: Nuptial Mass contains queer themes\, religious themes\, and simulated\, comical drug use.\n\nBoth performances will take place on the Hollins Theatre’s main stage. $10 general admission. FREE for Hollins students\, faculty\, and staff.

SUMMARY:Inauguration Watch Party and MLK Day Reflection
DESCRIPTION:The Inauguration Watch Party and MLK Day Reflection event creates a thoughtful pairing that bridges two significant moments in American civic life. The presidential inauguration represents the peaceful transfer of power and continuation of democratic traditions\, while MLK Day honors Dr. King’s profound impact on civil rights and social justice in America. \nHolding these observances on the same day in January offers a chance to explore their interconnected themes: \n\n\n 	Dr. King’s work was fundamentally about expanding democratic participation and ensuring all Americans could fully engage in civic life;\n 	The inauguration ceremony itself embodies democratic principles Dr. King fought to protect and extend to all citizens;\n 	Both occasions invite reflection on the ongoing work of strengthening democracy and advancing equal rights.\n\nThis event is intended for current Hollins students. Interested faculty and staff are also welcome.\n\n
