"FURY", an Experimental Theatrical Performance Directed by PlySpace Resident Fellow Derek Spencer
7:30pm @
Cornerstone Center for the Arts
Heritage Room
520 E Main St. Muncie, IN 47305
Cost: $5 FURY adapts the classic Greek tragedy The Eumenides for a contemporary context. Spencer and his ensemble of BSU acting students draw on physical theater, immersive performance techniques, and improvisation to examine the role of anger in judicial reform. As Athena gathers her jury for the first ever trial, the Furies, ancient gods of anger, eagerly await the execution of the matricidal Orestes. True justice, however, may be more complicated than a simple verdict.
Originally devised with the ensemble and performed in an ornate Masonic temple, Fury asks audiences to examine their own relationship to justice, reform, and authority. Audiences may be directly interacted with by performers in this site-specific, immersive performance.
FURY will run for four nights at Cornerstone Center for the Arts. The opening night will be Thursday, April 21, 2022, followed by performances on Friday, April 22, 2022 and Saturday, April 23, 2022. The final performance will be on Sunday, April 24, 2022. All performances will be held in the Heritage Room on the second floor of Cornerstone Center for the Arts at 7:30pm. Tickets are $5.00 per person and are available for purchase online at www.plyspace.org/events. For free or reduced-cost tickets, please contact Lexi Musselman, Program Coordinator, at hello@plyspace.org. Masks are not required, but recommended.

The Indiana Chitlin Circuit @ Cuplets
5:00pm @
The Cup
1606 West University Avenue
Cost: FREE Admission with Menu Purchase! 
Please join us for a very special evening, presented by Cuplets, Live Poetry at The Cup, on Sunday, July 28th, at 5p, The Indiana Chitlin Circuit!
RSVP HERE:
https://facebook.com/events/s/the-indiana-chitlin-circuit/8336938519661109/
This Hoosier project is based on the historical Chitlin Circuit that sprouted during the period of Jim Crow segregation. African American performers weren’t allowed to share a stage with white performers, so a network of live entertainment venues in the US emerged that catered to black audiences and black entertainers. The PuICC facilitates and shares the pride and verve of the historical entertainers that burgeoned (bur-jn) African American entertainment throughout America.
With the PuICC, three poets collaborate, creating an atmosphere of artistic excitement, all three sharing the mic, taking turns reading a piece of poetry inspired by the last piece of poetry read. Each poet feeds off the other, not knowing what to read until that VERY moment. This magical round-robin of sorts goes on for about 20 minutes. We will take a small break and then each poet gets a solo set of about 10 minutes. As a group each, our poets read a poem by lucille clifton – line by line.
This is unlike any poetry event you have been a part of and it is likely VERY different than what you’ve seen or been audience to! We are excited for you to experience this with our very own Indiana State Poet Laureate, Curtis L. Crisler, and two of our local poets, Cuplets Host, Abigayle Devendorf, and Gayle Radwick!
Admission is FREE with a purchase from the menu of The Cup! 🥯☕️
Join Cuplets monthly on every 4th Sunday at The Cup at 5p! The Cup is a coffeeshop/restaurant at 1606 West University Avenue in The Village by the campus of Ball State University in Muncie, Indiana. Free parking is behind the café, enter the parking lot off of Dill Street by Be Here Now.
