Arizona Summer Wildcat
June 17, 1998

THIS WEEK...

Wednesday, June 17

Gallagher Theatre will continue showing "The Man in the Iron Mask" tonight at 7:30 and 10 p.m. Fork over your $2.50 and make of Leonardo DiCaprio what you will. The film will be running through June 19.

Thursday, June 18

The UA's Summerfest '98 program-a series of lectures, performances, and other arts events-continues the week's festivities with a theater production premier by Paul Rudnick. "I Hate Hamlet" tells the story of a young, struggling actor who is cast as Hamlet in a Shakespeare-in-the-Park production-but, unfortunately, hates his role. Special admission price for this premier is $8 tonight only.

Friday, June 19

Dust off your old squeezebox records - Accordion Awareness Month is upon us once again! A public concert will be given tonight, sponsored in part by the UA School of Music and Dance, the UA Peter Treistman Fine Arts Center for New Media, and Beaver's Band Box. A demonstration of the fabulous MIDI accordion will also be given. The performance starts at 7:30 p.m. and tickets are $5. For location and any additional information, contact James O'Brien at 621-3388.

Saturday, June 20

Head on down to the Arizona Gallery in the Student Union today between 10 a.m. and 8 p.m. to view "Recent Paintings by Anthony Pessler." Pessler is an assistant professor of art at ASU and has paintings in the permanent collection at the Tucson Museum of Art, so it should be worth your while to check this out. The viewing is free and runs daily through Aug. 5.

Sunday, June 21

The Rotunda Gallery at the Student Union is exhibiting the work of Grace Ciotti today from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. "Variations on a Theme" is the name of this collection of Ciotti's abstract paintings, which are composed of computer generated images layered over with oil paint. The gallery will be showing Ciotti's work through Aug. 13. Admission is free - I repeat, free.

Monday, June 22

"Forrest Gump" kicks off another week of film enjoyment tonight at Gallagher Theatre. Show times are 7:30 p.m. and 10:05 p.m. through June 23. Admission is $2.50-hardly steep, especially to hear Tom Hanks chat about bullets in his bum.
