Barber Theater Julius Caesar by William Shakespeare Directed by Danielle Roos January 31–February 9 Josephine Louis Theater Information and tickets at communication.northwestern.edu/wirtz The Waa-Mu Show is vying for global design domination. The set design for the 88th annual production, For the Record, called for a massive 11-foot-diameter rotating globe suspended above the stage and wrapped in the masthead of the show’s fictional newspaper, the Chicago Offering. Northwestern’s set, scenery, and paint shops are located in the Virginia Wadsworth Wirtz Center for the Performing Arts, but Waa-Mu is performed in Cahn Auditorium. How to pull off such a planetary transplant? By deflating Earth. The globe began as a plain white (albeit custom-built) inflatable balloon, but after its initial multisection muslin wrap was created (to determine shrinkage), it was deflated, rigged, reinflated, motorized, map-designed, taped for a paint mask, primed, painted, and unpeeled to reveal computer-generated, to-scale continents.

  • Fall 2017 Newsletter Volume XXI • Number 1
    Musings Fall 2017 Newsletter Volume XXI • Number 1 1 From the Chair t has been another extremely busy year for the English Department! As described in better detail on the facing page, we have added a simply extraordinary trio of colleagues to the Department’s faculty: Natasha Trethewey (two term Poet Laureate of the U.S. and a Pulitzer Prize winner); Tristram I th th Wolff (specialist in 18 -/19 -Century British literature, Comparative and Transatlantic Romanticisms, and environmental humanities); and, in happy collaboration with the Asian American Studies Program where she holds a joint appointment, Michelle Huang (specialist in contemporary Asian American literature, posthumanism, and feminist science studies). We saw a new degree program, an MFA+MA (in creative writing and English literature), through the long approval process. This program will create new bridges between these two parts of our operations, and we will be conducting the first round of admissions for it this season. The Department also completed a major Self Study and external review process, which was the source of enormous encouragement about our strengths and trajectory and also of new and creative prompts for us to think ourselves and our programs forward, into what will -- soon enough! -- be the middle part of the 21st century. It’s been a very good year for us! Laurie Shannon Franklyn Bliss Snyder Professor of Literature A Word from EGSO As Evanston prepares for winter we would like to take a moment to think back over the year past. We began the 2016-2017 academic year with our annual Fall Collation, during which Department Chair Laurie Shannon welcomed us back and gave us counsel on the importance of monotasking— nurturing the deep concentration necessary to do work well.

President Schapiro’s March 10th email, suggesting that gatherings on and off campus should be cancelled, came only the day before our March dinner. We therefore decided to let members make their own decision whether or not to attend. But as the university extended its Spring break and decided to start Spring Quarter with online courses, and as restaurants were instructed to close and gatherings of more than 10 people are considered unwise, we had no choice but to cancel the April 1st lunch. However, our speaker, NEO President Michal Ginsburg, speaking at NEO's March dinner Professor Daniel Immerwahr of the History Department, has agreed to give his talk remotely, using Northwestern’s Zoom conferencing service.
