Professor Colin Gordon: “Dividing the City: Private Racial Restrictions and the Architecture of Segregation in the Midwest.”

Wednesday, April 6, 2022 - 7:00 pm

The Department of History is pleased to announce the 48th Carl L. Becker Memorial Lecture in History: Professor Colin Gordon (University of Iowa) will present “Dividing the City: Private Racial Restrictions and the Architecture of Segregation in the Midwest.”

Dividing the City traces the efforts of developers, realtors, and white homeowners to restrict property by race in the first half of the twentieth century. Drawing on archival research in property records in St. Louis City and St. Louis County in Missouri, and Black Hawk and Johnson Counties in Iowa, Gordon underscores the scope, the intensity, and the impact of such restrictions—both on contemporary housing opportunities, and on patterns of racial segregation and racial inequality that run to the present day.

The lecture will take place at 7:00 pm in Seerley 115 and via Zoom. Register to receive a Zoom link here: https://bit.ly/UNI-Becker2022

Cinderella

Cinderella
By: Rogers, Hamerstein, Carter Beane

Music by Richard Rodgers / Lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II / New Book by Douglas Carter Beane / Original Book by Oscar Hammerstein II

This is not your mother's Cinderella. The story needs no introduction, as it is based on the popular folk tale told for centuries with music and lyrics by Rodgers and Hammerstein. This fresh new version features many of the well-known songs, "Ten Minutes Ago", "The Stepsisters Lament", "Impossible", and "In My Own Little Corner", but has a reworked book by Douglas Carter Beane. This up to date new version pulls at the seams of the classic fairy tale, evoking humor for children and adults alike. With thrilling visual effects, this retelling of the classic tale is exciting, touching and funny! We will include a focus on making this production available for all families, including those that include youth and young adults with exceptionalities. Two public performances will include numerous production adjustments in order to better support individuals with autism and other developmental delays.

Directed by: Jim Bray, Gretta Berghammer

TheatreUNI Presents: Cinderella

TheatreUNI Presents: Cinderella

Thursday, April 7, 2022 - 7:30 pm to Saturday, April 16, 2022 - 2:00 pm

Cinderella

Cinderella
By: Rogers, Hamerstein, Carter Beane

Music by Richard Rodgers / Lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II / New Book by Douglas Carter Beane / Original Book by Oscar Hammerstein II

This is not your mother's Cinderella. The story needs no introduction, as it is based on the popular folk tale told for centuries with music and lyrics by Rodgers and Hammerstein. This fresh new version features many of the well-known songs, "Ten Minutes Ago", "The Stepsisters Lament", "Impossible", and "In My Own Little Corner", but has a reworked book by Douglas Carter Beane. This up to date new version pulls at the seams of the classic fairy tale, evoking humor for children and adults alike. With thrilling visual effects, this retelling of the classic tale is exciting, touching and funny! We will include a focus on making this production available for all families, including those that include youth and young adults with exceptionalities. Two public performances will include numerous production adjustments in order to better support individuals with autism and other developmental delays.

Directed by: Jim Bray, Gretta Berghammer

April 7, 2022 - 7:30pm
