    Events and Concerts

    It's movie premiere time! This week, it's "Death to Smoochy." The film stars Robin Williams as a disgraced children's TV show ex-host who vows to assassinate his replacement, a fuchsia rhinoceros named Smoochy (Edward Norton). The movie also stars Danny DeVito, Catherine Keener and Jon Stewart. Catch the show at 7 p.m. at Muse, 516 N. Fifth Ave.

    Roots rocker Nathan Hamilton will celebrate the release of his second solo album, All for Love and Wages, tonight at Plush, 340 E. Sixth St. Formerly a member of the Sharecroppers, Hamilton's music has been described as raw and intellectual. The event begins at 10:30 p.m. For more information, call the venue at 798-1298.

    This week, the International Arts Society presents "The Earrings of Madame De ·" which is "the most perfect film ever made," according to Andrew Sardis. Decide for yourself Friday at 7:30 p.m., and explore the connections director Max Ophuls weaves between adultery, upper-class women, power relations and a pair of earrings. Admission is free, and the movie is shown in the Modern Languages auditorium.

    Missed the St. Patrick's Day festivities? Looking for an excuse to listen to some Irish drinking songs? Never fear, laddie, for Round The House will present Irish traditional music at Montgomery's Irish Pub Friday from 8 to 11 p.m. The group plays its lively acoustic ballads, love stories and pub songs using fiddle, mandolin, banjo, guitar and bodhran (an Irish drum). There is no cover charge, and the pub is located at 9155 E. Tanque Verde, just past Catalina Highway.

    This weekend, the University of Arizona's Dance Ensemble will present "Premium Blend," the annual faculty choreography showcase. Ballet, modern and jazz dance styles will be featured in performances choreographed by several world-renowned UA faculty members. Themes range from cats to Mexican heritage to the rock formations of Texas Canyon. The show plays on Friday at 8 p.m. and Saturday at 2 p.m. and 8 p.m. at Crowder Hall. Tickets are $12 general admission and $9 for students. For more information, contact the Fine Arts box office at 621-1162.

    The latest event in the UA Faculty Artist Series is "Really New Music," a decidedly self-explanatory program of several recent and late-20th-century works, performed by violinist Mark Rush and pianist Tannis Gibson. Both musicians have appeared in concerts throughout the United States and around the world. The performance is Monday at 7 p.m. at Holsclaw Recital Hall. Tickets are $10 general admission, $8 for UA employees and seniors 55 and older, and $4 for students. For tickets, call the box office at 621-1162, and for information on the show, call MusiCall at 621-2998.
