Announcing Auditions for the Delta Players Spring Production
2012-01-30 16:30 - 20:00 | Jobe Hall, Auditorium
Announcing Auditions
“The Liar”
by David Ives
The Liar is a modernization of a 17th Century French farce by Pierre Corneille. ALL roles are comedic—some broadly, some subtly. The challenge for the modern actor—and for our audience—is that the play is written in rhymed iambic pentameter. Comedic timing is important, but the most critical element is comfort and facility with language!
Auditions will be held on
Monday, January 30th
4:30-8pm
Jobe Hall Auditorium
***Please prepare a monologue for auditions. If you can find something in verse—Shakespeare, Moliere, or even something from The Liar—that would be great. But it is NOT required. More than anything, come to auditions ready to have a good time!
Callbacks will be on
Thursday, February 2nd 3-7pm
I will request everyone to read for specific roles at callbacks, but if you want to audition for a specific character, simply let me know. If you let me know before auditions I will keep it in mind; but please be willing to ask to read for a specific part at callbacks on Thursday, February 2nd.
ALL are welcome!

Picturing America: Reflecting Mississippi and the Delta
2012-02-03 00:00 - 2012-03-30 00:00 | Capps Archives & Museum, Main Gallery
The National Endowment for the Humanities in cooperation with the American Library Association developed "Picturing America" as a part of the We The People initiative in order to provide students across America an intellectual gateway to study and explore some of our nation’s greatest artwork. The Mississippi Humanities Council, MS Library Commission, MS Arts Commission and the MS Department of Archives and History took this project a step further by pairing images across our state to those selected for "Picturing America" to create the current exhibit. Through photographs and artwork, visitors to the exhibit will explore our regional, state and national history. As Bruce Cole, former Chairman of the National Endowment for the Humanities states, "As I pondered great works of art, I had the first glimmerings of what would would become a lifelong pursuit: to study and understand the form, history and meaning of art." This exhibit is a balanced blend of the world of humanities.

DSU Welcomes Mose Allison Home
2012-02-15 19:30 | BPAC
Composer, poet, pianist and vocalist Mose Allison will appear in concert on Wednesday, February 15, at 7:30 p.m. in the BPAC on the Delta State campus. The concert, titled “DSU Welcomes Mose Allison Home,” is free and open to the public. Born in Tallahatchie County where he was influenced by the bluesman that lived and performed on his father’s farm, Allison has long lived in New York City. He has been a major influence on musicians over the last 50 years and has been touring for at least that long. His songs have been recorded by, among others, Van Morrison, the Rolling Stones, Diana Krall, John Mayall (with Eric Clapton) and Elvis Costello. His singular style, a unique blending of jazz and blues, and his profound lyrical wit mark him as a true American original. Paul Bernays of Artisan Pictures in the United Kingdom presented an hour-long documentary about his career, titled “Ever Since I Stole the Blues.” Allison will have a busy schedule when he comes home to Mississippi. After his performance at Delta State, he will be honored in Jackson, where the Mississippi Arts Commission will present him with a Governor’s Lifetime Achievement Award on Wednesday, February 16, at 1:00 p.m. in Wells Memorial United Methodist Church. The following day, he will be present at the Allison Mercantile Store in Tippo at 1:30 p.m. when the Mississippi Blues Commission unveils a marker on the Mississippi Blues Trail in his honor. Both the Governor’s Awards and the Mississippi Blues Trail unveiling are free and open to the public. Immediately following the unveiling ceremony all are invited to the CARE building in Charleston for a reception and short program presented by CARE. Allison’s performance at Delta State is made possible by funding from the Delta State Foundation, Delta Center for Culture and Learning, the Bologna Performing Arts Center, the Tri-State Education Foundation, the Delta State College of Arts and Sciences, and the Mississippi Arts Commission.

Tickets: (662) 846-4626
Simply Sinatra
Sunday, March 25, 2012 @ 2:00pm
Steve Lippia is among the nation’s finest interpreters of “standards” and traditional pop music. His youthful, energetic talent and powerful show is a perfect blend that appeals to long-time listeners while introducing a new generation to this timeless music. His latest program, Simply Sinatra, is a walk down memory lane celebrating the music of Ol’ Blue Eyes.
According to The Wall Street Journal, Frank Sinatra’s long-time friend Tino Barzie and his musical director Vincent Falcone thought they had stumbled on an old Sinatra recording the first time they heard Lippia’s demo tape. Since then, he has headlined engagements in Las Vegas and Atlantic City, at New York’s legendary Birdland jazz club, and performed to sold-out audiences across North America.

Moscow Festival Ballet
Wednesday, April 25, 2012 @7:30pm
With lavish costumes, a magical set, and breathtaking folkloric backgrounds, the Moscow Festival Ballet’s Cinderella is an enchanting experience that proves dreams do come true.True to the age-old fairy tale, Cinderella is the endearing story of a young girl who lives with a very bossy, unlikable Stepmother and two very vain Stepsisters. In the end, the tender hearted Cinderella finds good fortune, love and happiness through her acts of kindness. This jubilant production is the work of one of Russia’s most esteemed ballet companies– The Moscow Festival Ballet. Sergei Radchenko, legendary principal dancer of the Bolshoi Ballet, founded the company in 1989 to create an ensemble that would bring together the highest classical elements of the great Bolshoi and Kirov Ballet companies. Under his direction, leading dancers from across Russia now stage exciting new productions of timeless classics.

Connecting to Collections: The MS Digital Library workshop is offered to anyone who works with cultural collections in public libraries, universities, museums or any other institutions with collections. This workshop will give you the opportunity to learn more about how the MS Digital Library is connecting our collections to other repositories and researchers not only within our own state but across the national and around the world. Have you ever thought "There just isn’t enough time in my schedule to scan and upload information to my web page?" Or have you ever wondered how other libraries or archives develop and maintain their online resources? If you have ever grappled with questions like this, this workshop will provide not only the answers but hands-on learning to scan, create your own metadata and learn how the MS Digital Library can help you and your institution put your collections online! The MS Digital Library brings Mississippi to researchers around the world. The program provides online access to unique materials held in repositories through the state. Letters, diaries, photographs, state & organizational records, oral histories, and other primary sources provide first-hand documentation of history and a sampling of the resources available here. With funding awarded in December 2003 by the Institute of Museum & Library Services (IMLS), the MDL began as a partnership between these institutions: Delta State University, Jackson State University, The MS Department of Archives & History, Tougaloo College, The University of Mississippi, The University of Southern Mississippi. The ultimate aim of the MDL is to provide access to primary source materials from museums, archives, libraries and other institutions throughout the state, covering a wide range of subject areas. Form more information on this workshop, please contact Emily Jones at 662.846.4780.

What a Box Can Do: Celebrating 50 Years of The Box Project
2012-08-10 08:00 - 2012-09-30 17:00 | Capps Archives & Museum Building, 2nd Floor
The seeds of The Box Project were sown at the Geneva Disarmament Conference in 1962 when Virginia Naeve of Jamaica, Vermont, met and talked with Clarie Collins Harvey from Jackson, Mississippi, and Coretta Scott King from Atlanta, Georgia. They talked about war and segregation as part of man’s inhumanity to man. Back home in Vermont, Mrs. Naeve began to think about what she could do to lessen this inhumanity. Letters to Clarie Harvey and Coretta King brought the names of needy black families in Mississippi and Georgia to whom Mrs. Naeve began to send letters, clothing, household items, and food. From a gift subscription to a black newspaper in Jackson, Mississippi, Mrs. Naeve learned more about problems there. This resulted in her sending books for a new Freedom Library in meridian, Mississippi. To involve others who felt strongly about injustices in the south, Mrs. Naeve held a Civil Rights fair at her home. Clothing or food served as admission and she reaped 250 boxes worth! In order to get the clothing to where it was needed, she wrapped and stacked boxes near her front door. Everyone who visited was asked to mail a box. By the time the last box was sent, people had begun to realize they out to pack and mail their own boxes and were asking for names of families. This exhibit remembers the first families and all the families since that have been involved with The Box Project.

U.S. Poet Laureate Natasha Trethewey Reading
2012-09-18 19:00 - 21:00 | Delta Music Institute, Studio A
New United States Poet Laureate and Mississippi Poet Laureate Natasha Trethewey will give her first Mississippi reading as the nation’s 19th Poet Laureate at Delta State University on Tuesday, September 18th at 7 p.m.

The reading will serve as the Mississippi launch for her new book of poetry “Thrall.” “Thrall” is her poetic follow-up to her Pulitzer Prize winning book “Native Guard.” “Thrall” explores many themes of Trethewey’s earlier works. This time, however, she moves beyond the Deep South to meditate on the complicated legacy of colonialism in the Americas; the interaction between memory, historical amnesia, and erasure; and the complex relationship she has with her father.

Delta State University was the first university to give her an honorary doctorate, awarded by Dr. John Hilpert at the 2007 Fall Commencement. Dr. Trethewey is also the Mississippi Poet Laureate and a 2008 winner of the Governor’s Award for Excellence in the Arts from the Mississippi Arts Commission.

Assistant Professor of English Don Allan Mitchell has been instrumental in helping his friend obtain all three Mississippi awards. “We are so very fortunate to have a supporter of Delta State University like Natasha Trethewey. She understands that memory has a special resonance in Mississippi and in the Delta, and I have made it a personal mission of mine to make sure she is properly honored in her home state. Mississippi was on the wrong side of history when we made a crime of her interracial birth in 1966; I want to make sure that we are on the right side of history in 2012 by honoring Mississippi’s greatest contribution to American poetry,” stated Mitchell.

Trethewey will officially assume her duties as United States Poet Laureate at the Library of Congress on Thursday, September 13th. She is the first Southerner to hold the post since Robert Penn Warren of Tennessee and Kentucky in 1986, and the first African American since Rita Dove in 1993.

The event is free and will be held in Studio A of the Delta Music Institute, located in the old Whitfield Gymnasium on campus, which has also hosted historic speeches by fellow Pulitzer Prize winners William Faulkner and Dean Acheson. To ensure that all groups are accommodated, notification of attendance is requested by calling 662.846.4626.

The reading is hosted by the Division of Languages and Literature and the Delta State University Diversity Committee. Generous support is also provided by the Delta Music Institute, The Delta State University Foundation, and the Bologna Performing Arts Center.

“I am encouraging some friendly competition between Trethewey’s adopted home town of Atlanta, Georgia, and her home state of Mississippi. She’ll be keynoting the Atlanta Journal-Constitution Decatur Book Festival on August 31rst. She easily will fill the 800-seat venue at Emory University where she will give that speech. Let’s use September 18th as a chance to show America how much Mississippi and Delta State University support both Dr. Trethewey and great American authors. Let’s show our Delta hospitality by welcoming her with open arms on September 18th,” said Assistant Professor of English Georgene Clark, who also chairs Delta State University’s Diversity Committee.

“I reread ‘Native Guard’ at least once a year. Many of the faculty in the Division of Languages and Literature assign it to our students. Every time I read it, I find another intricate brush stroke on its rich canvas. A few years back, she shared with me the thumbnail sketch of what would become ‘Thrall,’ and I knew I was going to have to expand my syllabus,” Mitchell added.

Produced by the Delta Music Institute in partnership with the Delta State University Music Department and The Bologna Performing Arts Center, this show will add just the right touch to the holiday season.
Eden Brent
Much more than the blues flows through Brent’s talented hands. Critics laud her "Bessie Smith meets Diana Krall meets Janis Joplin" attitude, and wax effusively about her "whiskey-smoke" voice. She is frequently compared to jazz/pop dynamos Norah Jones and Sarah Vaughn.
