Día de los Muertos Altar Exhibit

The Multicultural Education and Counseling through the Arts (MECA) presents their annual Día de los Muertos Altar Exhibit. Application Deadline: October 28, 2009. On view October 31 – November 28, 2009.

The community is invited to participate and create an altar in honor of a past relative or loved one. Family members honor their deceased loved ones with ofrendas or offerings such as photographs, bread, foods, flowers, toys, and other symbolic offerings. Personalize the altar with images of saints; favorite objects, or whatever you think would honor your loved one. Altar exhibit competition contestants could win 1st, 2nd or 3rd place.

Refer to MECA’s online application: www.meca-houston.org.

With public debt ballooning, banks going bust and a depression looming, "The Threepenny Opera" has a plot fit for today's front page even though it's based on an 18th-century story. Under the vision of critically acclaimed guest director Leslie Swackhamer and the musical direction of Rice's Cristi Macelaru, Rice University Theatre will present the award-winning production Nov. 13-15 and 19-21. Written by Bertolt Brecht (book and lyrics) and Kurt Weill (music), "The Threepenny Opera" was inspired by John Gay’s "The Beggar’s Opera." Brecht and Weill’s creation is a savage, biting commentary on capitalism and modern morality. Originally set in London, "The Threepenny Opera" is a musical satire of the outlaw Mack the Knife in which love, sex, murder and theft all become tactics for survival in a society spinning out of control. Winner of three Tony Awards, "The Threepenny Opera" revolutionized musical theater by overcoming superficiality and mere storytelling in favor of presenting ideas. Weill’s acidic harmonies and Brecht’s piercing texts created a transformation that inspired such subsequent hits as "Cabaret," "Chicago" and "Urinetown." Performances will be in Hamman Hall at 8 p.m. Nov. 13 and 14, 2 p.m. Nov. 15 and 8 p.m. Nov. 19-21. Tickets are $10 for general admission, $8 for Rice faculty, staff and alumni, and $5 for students. Tickets are available in advance by calling 713-348-PLAY. For more information, visit .

This community-based event, which will take place November 20th, 2009 from 7pm-10pm, offers a variety of fun-filled family activities.
