The Interpreters Theatre presents Clogging the System, conceived, written and directed by undergraduate honors student Harrison Postler.

Clogging the System is set in the ubiquitous offices of corporate America. The play uncovers how deeply embedded shame is in our society. When office members arrive at their new building to discover fully public toilets (not restrooms) they are forced to confront beliefs that have been ingrained within them since birth. Viewed through a satirical lens, the play takes many various twists and turns as it explores how people confront the things that make them uncomfortable.

Doors open at 7 p.m.; admission is free with limited seating. Tickets are distributed at 6:30 p.m. first come, first served.

The UNI Center for Holocasut and Genocide Education and the Grout Museum District present a traveling exhibit from the White Rose Foundation in Munich. This exhibit focuses on the most famous non-violent student resistance movement during the Nazi era. In 1942-1943, a small group of students and a professor in Munich distributed leaflets calling for the overthrow of Hitler and his government. The efforts of their group, which they called the White Rose, have left an enduring legacy for today’s generations of Germans, who consistently place the members of the White Rose among the Germans whom they most admire.

On Saturday, March 9, at 2 p.m. in the Jean and Clair Parker Theater in the Sullivan Brothers Iowa Veterans Museum (Grout Museum District), there will be a free screening of "Sophie Scholl: The Final Days," a 2005 dramatization of the capture and trials of Sophie Scholl and other members of the White Rose.
