Olga Tchepikova-Treon: "Allegiances of Difference in Frank Moore’s Misfit Cinema" on October 31st at 4pm in LH 6.
"Frank Moore proudly refers to himself as a misfit artist. Misfits, he insists, are essential in today’s culture. Their calling is to push back the limits of society in the interest of protecting free expression. While he acknowledges that there are many ways to be a misfit artist, Moore considers himself lucky to have been born with cerebral palsy. Being “spastic,” he claims, provides him with certain “techniques of freedom” that advance his artistic work. In this talk, I will first introduce Moore’s oeuvre alongside the broader history of disability, performance, and experimental cinema, emphasizing his recurring criticism of the merits and values that are both ascribed onto and expected from the work of disabled artists. Second, I will present Moore’s short collage film Outrageous Dream (1984) as a concrete example of what playwright, scholar, and artist Ron Whyte calls allegiances of difference, where disability experience and experimental film practices work in conjunction to explore and subvert the aesthetic and symbolic authority of normalcy, tradition, and convention that permeates dominant film cultures."

Seussical:Book, Music, and Lyrics by Lynn Ahrens & Stephen FlahertyDirected by Tommy IafrateMusic Directed by Melissa YanchakChoreographer: JoEllen KuhlmanNovember 14-22, 2025
Now one of the most performed shows in America, Seussical is a fantastical, magical, musical extravaganza that brings to life all of our favorite Dr. Seuss characters, including Horton the Elephant, The Cat in the Hat, Gertrude McFuzz, lazy Mayzie and a little boy with a big imagination – Jojo. The colorful characters transport us from the Jungle of Nool to the Circus McGurkus to the invisible world of the Whos.
The Cat in the Hat tells the story of Horton, an elephant who discovers a speck of dust that contains the Whos, including Jojo, a Who child sent off to military school for thinking too many "thinks." Horton faces a double challenge: not only must he protect the Whos from a world of naysayers and dangers, but he must guard an abandoned egg, left in his care by the irresponsible Mayzie La Bird. Although Horton faces ridicule, danger, kidnapping, and a trial, the intrepid Gertrude McFuzz never loses faith in him. Ultimately, the powers of friendship, loyalty, family and community are challenged and emerge triumphant.
