Bear is part \"I Love Lucy,\" part Jacobean revenge tragedy, and part feminist power ballad. Set in the North Georgia mountains, the ever-sweet Nan finally flips the story on her abusive husband, Kyle, taking back her life. With the help of her colorful friends, her idolization of Jimmy Carter, and one violent Shakespearean stage direction, this play ain't over till the bears are in pursuit.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><em>[source: <a href=\"https:\/\/muccc.org\/events\/?p=8046\">MuCCC website<\/a>, 2013-Nov-11]<\/em><\/li>\n<li>The <strong>Eastman Trombone Choir<\/strong> performs in <strong>Kilbourn Hall<\/strong> tonight at 8 p.m. <em>[source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rochester.edu\/Eastman\/calendar\/?event&amp;id=803548&amp;from=14November2013&amp;to=14November2013\">Eastman School of Music calendar<\/a>, 2013-Nov-11]<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Tonight at 8 p.m., the <strong>Dryden<\/strong> will screen <strong>Downhill<\/strong> (Alfred Hitchcock, U.K. 1927, 105 min., 35mm) with live piano accompaniment by <strong>Philip C.

As he strives to get his voice heard and capture the stories of people living on the margins, McKinley confronts the unavoidable stories of his past and battles against the stigma of being formerly incarcerated. Guided by this personal narrative of survival, The Throwaways is a timely and provocative look at the impact of mass incarceration and police brutality on black males in America. More than a simple illumination of marginalized people at their weakest moments; this film is a call to action, a story of directly engaging in the fight for justice.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><em>[source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/events\/523783964378340\/\">Facebook<\/a>, 2013-Nov-11]<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Tonight from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. at the <strong>Firehouse Gallery<\/strong> at <strong>Genesee Pottery<\/strong> is the <strong>Opening Reception<\/strong> for <strong>Winter Craft<\/strong>, on display through December 21.<br \/>\n<blockquote><p>Winter Craft features ceramics, jewelry, letterpress posters, photography, and fiber arts.
