• October 04: Half-day retreat on Radical Hospitality, Nov. 8

  Friday October 04, 2024
  

  Faculty and staff are invited to the Office of 麻豆APP Integration’s half-day retreat for reflection and discussion of this year’s Celebrate Spirit theme, “Radical Hospitality,” from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. Friday, Nov. 8 inside of Lansing-Reilly Hall. Lunch follows the retreat.

  Join Sr. Judy Mouch, RSM, and Patrick Kelly, SJ for reflection on our call to hospitality as it is rooted in our Mercy and Jesuit traditions and why it’s sorely needed in our University community in this time of polarization and conflict in our own society and wards in our world that impact students and many of us on campus in very direct and profound ways.

  RSVP if you will be attending to kellypm@udmercy.edu with “Half Day Retreat” in the subject line.

• October 04: Detroit Mercy Theatre Company presents WITCH, Oct. 25-27 and Nov. 1-3

  Friday October 04, 2024
  

  Detroit Mercy Theatre Company‘s first production of the school year is WITCH, performed across two weekends, Oct. 25-27 and Nov. 1-3 at the Marlene Boll Theatre in downtown Detroit. Shows on Fridays and Saturdays are at 7:30 p.m. and 3 p.m. Sundays.

  Prepare to be spellbound by this sharp and subversive fable, where the boundaries between good and evil blur. In the quaint village of Edmonton, a mysterious figure with devilish charm appears offering to fulfill the deepest desires of its inhabitants. Elizabeth, a woman ostracized by the village and labeled a “witch,” should prove an easy target, but what unfolds is a captivating dance igniting unexpected passions and forging unlikely alliances.

  In this modern twist on a class Jacobean drama, witness the transformation of a community grappling with the value of their souls in times of adversity. The show by Jen Silverman is being directed by Krista Schafer.
