Join alumni for the Los Angeles premiere of Qui Nguyen's Vietgone, which the New York Times has hailed as "a raucous comedy" and Rolling Stone has described as "a wild, enjoyable ride." Vietgone is a modern twist on the classic boy-meets-girl story featuring refugees fleeing the Vietnam War who fall in love in a relocation camp. Vietgone takes audiences on a hilariously rip-roaring ride across 1970s America. There will be an artist talk-back after the performance. We are offering a limited number of discount tickets - $25 for orchestra seats. East West Players is the nation's longest-running professional theater of color in the country and the largest producing organization of Asian American artistic work.

Join alumni for a studio tour with visual artist Andrea Fono '86. Andrea's work is distinguished by qualities of lightness and ease. She has a strong interest in the intrinsic power of line, colour and language. Simple thematic elements like stars, leaves and blossoms symbolize the universality of nature as well as the commonality of our experiences. Andrea also makes abstract works in oil or acrylic on canvas, as well as watercolors which combine dream images and text. She is perhaps best known for her work with monoprints, a unique process to which she brings to bear her thirty years of visual inquiries. Andrea will provide a tour of her studio (3520 Haven Avenue, Redwood City) and discuss her creative process and work. Learn more about Andrea Fono's work: www.fonoart.com. Refreshments will be served.

Join us for a conversation with Rachel Feldman '76, film & television / director & writer, as well as a long-time activist for gender equity behind the camera. Rachel has directed more than 75 hours of television, most recently the pilot and entire season of THE BAXTERS for MGM. She will be directing BLUE BLOODS and CRIMINAL MINDS later this fall. Rachel is the recipient of the Ravenal Grant and is an Athena List winner (the Black List for screenplays featuring female protagonists) for LILLY , a political drama she will direct, to be produced by Academy Award winning producer Marc Platt, based on the life of fair pay activist Lilly Ledbetter. The event will also feature special guest Lynne Littman ’62, best known for her Oscar-winning short doc Number Our Days and her nuclear nightmare feature Testament, starring Jane Alexander '61. Lynne has been fighting for gender equity in Hollywood since the 70’s. The conversation will be moderated by Mark Kaplan '87, and it will be hosted by Rachel Feldman '76 and Carl Tillmanns MFA '76 (parents of Nora Tillmanns '10) in Mid-City West (address will be share upon registrants).

Join Sarah Lawrence alumni for The War and Treaty at the Cedar Cultural Center (416 Cedar Avenue South). As The War and Treaty, Michael and Tanya Trotter serve up healing and pain robbing with freewheeling joy on their new full-length album, Healing Tide. Funky bass lines, keys, lap steel, acoustic strings, and stripped-down percussion create a swampy Southern soul bed for the couple's transcendent vocals. A tour-de-force produced by Buddy Miller, the collection swaggers with confidence only gained by artists who are wholly, proudly, themselves. Thanks to Mary Rindelaub-Delorie '01 we have a limited number free tickets to this wonderful event. You may register with 1 guest (guest name must be provided upon registration). Meet up before the show and join Mary Rindelaub-Delorie '01 and Alumni Board member Carol Roth '97 for dinner at 6:30 at Red Sea (320 Cedar Ave.) a nearby Ethiopian restaurant.
