The forum will discuss the design, construction, and performance of shadow figures and three-dimensional puppets in of a PigPen Theater Company play with music, directed by Matt Sorensen, a Visiting Professor of Dramatic Arts in UConn's Puppet Arts Program. In conversation with Ballard Institute Director John Bell, Sorensen and Puppet Arts MFA student designers Harley Walker and Mel Carter will discuss the process of conceiving and creating puppetry elements for this acclaimed Off-Broadway production about the aging caretaker of the moon, and the conflicts of duty and love he faces. Admission to the forum is free (donations greatly appreciated!), and refreshments will be served. For more information or if you require accommodation to attend a forum, please contact Ballard Institute staff at 860.486.8580 or bimp@uconn.edu (mailto:bimp@uconn.edu).

Have you ever seen a mosquito and wanted to shoo it away? Certainly, if you used a nuclear bomb, this would solve the issue, despite there being many simpler ways to approach the problem. We will discuss mathematical equivalents of this: ways to prove elementary facts using overly complicated methods.  Note: Free refreshments. The talk starts at 5:40.
