As Tom Callaghan puts it, “there is only one opportunity for someone to have a grand adventure” on a particular section of rock. “Benedictus” is the story of Tom’s grand adventure on the “Big Wall” section of Cannon Cliff in New Hampshire. Using an old aid climbing route as a starting point, Tom sets out to forge a new free climb to the top of the cliff. This turns out to take seven years, but a sense of humor helps Tom keep things in perspective as partners drop out, injuries crop up, weather won’t cooperate and bad luck just happens. View the movie web site for more information.

This film is free for all PSU students and $7 for non-students.

Sponsored by the PSU Outing Club.

Urinetown, the Musical

In a Gotham-like city, a terrible water shortage caused by a 20-year draught has led to a government enforced ban on private toilets. The citizens must use public amenities, regulated by a single malevolent company that profits by charging admission for one of humanity’s most basic needs. Amid the people, a hero decides he’s had enough, and plans a revolution to lead them all to freedom! Inspired by the works of Bertolt Brecht and Kurt Weill, Urinetown is an irreverently humorous satire in which no one is safe from scrutiny.

Tickets: $14 adult/$12 senior/$10 youth/$5 PSU student.

Tickets and more information is available at the Silver Center.
