Our Class
New England Premiere directed by Barbara W. Grossman
An award-winning play first staged in London in 2009, Our Class confronts the horrors of the Holocaust through the lives of ten school friends, five Jewish and five Catholic, in an unnamed Polish town. It is meant to represent Jedwabne, where hundreds of Jews were massacred – some sources say by the occupying Nazis, others allege by their Polish neighbors – on July 10, 1941.
The play opens in 1925 with the classmates singing and playing together in elementary school. Before it ends eight decades later, their lives will be irrevocably altered, their childhood dreams destroyed. As the town is invaded first by the Soviet Union, then by Germany, they will be swept up in the violence and trauma of war. There will be acts of betrayal, murder, rape and revenge continuing into the communist and post-communist eras, haunting survivors and perpetrators alike.
By refusing to demonize his characters, playwright Slobodzianek forces us to consider the nature of human behavior in extreme situations. His unsentimental depiction moves beyond the notion of individual heroism and cowardice to a compelling exploration of collective guilt and moral responsibility.

Varis Performing Arts Series: Joel LaRue Smith Afro Cuban Jazz Trio
The Varis Performing Arts Series:
The Joel LaRue Smith Afro Cuban Jazz Trio Pianist, arranger and composer, Joel LaRue Smith’s talent and commitment bring a unique passion to music. His music in-corporates emotional and cultural diversities, traveling Afro-Cuban rhythmic patterns, from Jazz harmonic music to classical music, creating a tapestry of musical themes in his playing and compositions. What results is a sound colored with unpredictable delights, imagination, playfulness, rich textures and passion, as he searches for ways to redefine musical experience, while integrating deep-rooted traditions. “My compositions are a mixture of infectious Afro-Cuban dance rhythms and sensual jazz harmonies. Listening to this music is like eating a bowl of gumbo or asopao. One doesn't merely listen to this music...one must feel and taste the rhythm. The traditions are old, the music is new."

Her latest work is A Visual Clash. will show an excerpt from and discuss her current project The Visual Clash, a documentary that uses archival material relating to the March 2012 Gaza Freedom Flotilla to reexamine the meaning of the term "event" through the gap that exists between the unrepeatable event, which takes place in reality and can never be fully perceived and the virtual media event, which can be repeatedly shown, quoted and applied in various contexts.
Amahl Bishara is an assistant professor of anthropology at Tufts University, and her husband Nidal Al-Azraq teaches Arabic in Boston and is a long-time activist with youth in Aida Refugee Camp, Bethlehem. Their new documentary, Degrees of Incarceration, examines how Palestinian refugees manage the heavy toll political prison takes on young and old under Israeli occupation. Through observational footage and interviews filmed over six years in Aida Refugee Camp, Degrees of Incarceration introduces a community of Palestinians – mothers, teens, children, community leaders – as they strive to support each other in the enduring shadow of political prison.

2011-2012 Feminist Reading Group: Gender and Health
What would it mean to consider physical ability a feminist issue? The author conceptualizes disability the way many of us think about categories like race, class, and gender—as socially constructed but with real-world, material impacts on all people, especially those in the marginalized group. This article explores the ways feminist theory might influence a theory of disability.
