How do you beat the heat?

Amia Nash, ‘15

“I don’t. The heat beats me.”

MALU VELTZE — the santa clara Santa Clara students perform a scene from “Goodness,” a modern age morality play by Michael Redhill. The play examines the evils and complexities of genocide through- out the world and history. A grim tale of the darkness that surrounds murder, “Goodness” asks what motivates people to commit acts of evil and what becomes of them after. The show is currently playing at the Fess Parker Studio Theatre at 8 p.m. Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Tickets are $10 with student identification. New Club on Campus
