Opening Nights
Lotus Lessons opens at the UO’s Arena Theatre Wednesday, May 21
Emma wants to find her birth mother. Who is this Chinese woman she doesn’t know? Who is Emma, for that matter? Ah, teen angst, expressed in a complex history-crossing UO theater department second stage production. The premiere of Wendy Williams’ new play gives imaginary characters their due in one young woman’s search for identity and place. The playwright hosts a talkback after the show on May 23. Show dates are May 21-24 and 29-31. Tix at 346-4363 or the box office.
Help keep truly independent
local news alive!
As the year wraps up, we’re reminded — again — that independent local news doesn’t just magically appear. It exists because this community insists on having a watchdog, a megaphone and occasionally a thorn in someone’s side.
Over the past two years, you helped us regroup and get back to doing what we do best: reporting with heart, backbone, and zero corporate nonsense.
If you want to keep Eugene Weekly free and fearless… this is the moment.
