Kupai Marx \u201924 and Kieran Blood \u201924 have been awarded a Davis Project for Peace for their work turning weapons into community-based art in Hawai\u2019i.<\/p>\n

After a 5-week intensive professional theatre training, our Youth Repertory Ensemble<\/a> will culminate by performing Mean Girls: High School Version<\/em> on the mainstage!<\/p>\n

Cady Heron may have grown up on an African savanna, but nothing prepared her for the wild and vicious ways of her strange new home: suburban Illinois. How will this na\u00efve newbie rise to the top of the popularity pecking order? By taking on The Plastics, a trio of lionized frenemies led by the charming but ruthless Regina George. But when Cady and her friends devise a \u201cRevenge Party\u201d to end Regina\u2019s reign, she learns the hard way that you can\u2019t cross a Queen Bee without getting stung.<\/p>\n

Adapted from Fey\u2019s hit 2004 film, Mean Girls<\/em> was nominated for a staggering 12 Tony Awards. The show runs Thursday-Saturday, July 25-27 at 7 p.m., and Sunday, July 28 at 2 p.m. Tickets are $17. Get your tickets today<\/a>!<\/p>\n

And don’t forget, CC faculty and staff can enjoy buy one, get one free drinks in Deco Lounge every Friday from 4:30-5:30 p.m.! Just show your Gold Card to the bartender. Generously sponsored by Bon Appetit.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n
