From the Little's website:<br \/>\n<blockquote><p>In the Fall of 2009 a group of US veterans and war resisters traveled to Israel\/Palestine to meet with their Israeli counterparts in an effort to strengthen connections and share experiences. \"Occupation Has No Future\" uses this trip as a lens to study Israeli militarism, examine the occupation of the Palestinian West Bank, and explore the work of Israelis and Palestinians organizing against militarism and occupation. The film explores the Israeli social environment that creates such heightened militarism and leads to attitudes of fear, exclusion, racism, and ultimately aggression; and examines the consequences of Israeli policies both for the Palestinian people as well as for Israeli civil society.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><em>[source: Little Theatre e-mail, 2012-Sep-12]<\/em><\/li>\n<li>The <strong>MuCCC<\/strong> is hosting a series of performances under the umbrella of <strong>Beyond the Fringe Festival<\/strong>.

Hazed by know-it-all Brits, the boys simply aren't cut out for the contemplative life &mdash; at least not until a window cracks Stan's cranium and awakens a brilliant scholarly alter ego. Soon Ollie finds himself demoted to \"Lord Paddington's\" valet. An uproarious comedy that lovingly revisits many classic Laurel and Hardy routines, A Chump at Oxford delivers a much-needed riposte to academic stuffiness.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><em>[source: Dryden website, 2012-Sep-18]<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Tonight through Saturday at 10:30 p.m. on <strong>Nextstage<\/strong> at <strong>Geva<\/strong> is <strong>Geva Comedy Improv<\/strong>'s show titled <strong>Zombie Horror: A Live Comedy Apocalypse<\/strong>. <em>[source: RocWiki events, 2012-Sep-18]<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Friday, September 21<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>This evening from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. at <strong>Lake Riley<\/strong> in <strong>Cobbs Hill Park<\/strong>, the <strong>Gandhi Institute<\/strong> is hosting the <strong>International Day of Peace<\/strong> to \"speak out to protect our water sources and health from hydrofracking, as Gov.
