BILOXI BLUES

In this hilarious and heart warming, Tony Award winning semi-autobiographical Neil Simon play, young Eugene Morris Jerome enlists in the U.S. Army at the end of World War II. He is shipped from his Brooklyn home to basic training in Biloxi, Mississippi. At boot camp, Eugene is antagonized by the manic drill instructor, is introduced to adulthood, love and sex through his experiences with a diverse and rowdy group of young recruits, his first girlfriend, and a local prostitute.

Define Artifact: Shelby Smith

In December, the Makai gallery of the East Hawaii Cultural Center features a solo exhibition by Shelby B. Smith exploring ceramic media through alternative processes. Smith’s fields of study, both architecture and ceramics, conflate in the “theoretical vessel” – an object by which space becomes an artifact of human design and interaction.
