SUMMARY:'Owl Calling' staged reading
DESCRIPTION:The call of an owl becomes an omen for Eddie\, a former residential school student in Brandon University professors Darrell Racine and Dale Lakevold’s new play Owl Calling. But what kind of an omen will it be for a man who has just opened up about his residential school experience?\n\n \n\n \n\nThe play premieres in Winnipeg September 25 — with a staged reading in Brandon at BU’s Evans Theatre on Oct. 3 as part of the university’s Truth and Reconciliation Week.\n\n \n\nOwl Calling depicts the journey that two Indigenous men undertake with their families as they go through the federal government’s compensation process for former residential school students.\n\n \n\nTheir families believe this process will help Eddie and his brother-in-law Jim heal from their school experience and find justice. But the compensation model\, as the family members in the play discover\, has little to do with healing.\n\nThe staged reading is free to all\, and takes place at BU’s Evans Theatre beginning at 7 p.m. on Thursday\, Oct. 3.\n\nRead more about Owl Calling.

SUMMARY:Profs in Pubs: Bee U
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Deanna Smid \nBrandon University’s Bee U project is launching its honey with a special event at Chez Angela downtown\, on Thursday\, May 25\, starting at 7 p.m. \nDr. Deanna Smid\, one of the Bee U coordinators\, and a professor of English and Creative Writing at BU\, will deliver a brief talk called “Bella and Jack Bring Back the Bees\, and so can you?!”. Based on a children’s book that was given away free by Honey Nut Cheerios\, Dr. Smid finds themes of fear\, blame\, and hope as drivers of ecological change. As part of her research\, Dr. Smid studies bees as symbols in literature from medieval times through to science fiction. \nBee U will also have a display of beekeeping equipment at Chez Angela\, for members of the public to experience hands-on\, including full beekeeping suits — try one on and get a photo! \nChez Angela is producing a limited run of honey-glazed cronuts for the evening with Bee-U honey. This year’s batch of honey is a light and sweet-tasting honey that features apple blossom and canola notes. Jars of 500 grams are also available at Chez Angela for sale\, at $15 apiece. The low price is partially thanks to Westoba Credit Union\, who sponsored the glassware. \nThis event is part of Brandon University’s occasional “Profs in Pubs” event series\, bringing audience-friendly presentations to a casual environment. \n
