((Jesse Martinez)) Hello, Blugolds. I'm Jesse Martinez, and we're back this week with another Blugold Minute.
((Ginna Roe)) And i'm Ginna Roe. this week, we're coming to you from the beautiful Woodland Theater.
((Jesse)) I'd like to thank the academy. It was an honor just to be nominated.
((Ginna)) OK, stop with the silver screen dream. We have a lot to tell people about, and we only have a minute to do it.
((Jesse)) Spoil sport. Ok, let's start the clock. We're here in Woodland because this week is full of movies.
On Friday night the UAC will be showing Elysium at 7:00 and again on Saturday at 2:00. The movie is a futuristic tale
that takes place in the year 2154. So grab some popcorn and snag a seat in the Woodland Theater.
((Ginna)) An award-winning documentary is coming to Eau Claire this Tuesday. The film "Inequality For All" will be shown
in room 007 in Phillips. It discusses the effect of a shrinking middle class on the economy and democracy.
Author, professor, and former Secretary of Labor Robert Reich will lead a 30 minute discussion following the screening.
The film starts at 3:45.
((Jesse)) Friday night, the Fire Ball drag show gets underway. This year's show will feature local and national performers.
Tickets are six dollars for general admission and nine dollars for the diva pass.
((Ginna)) And if you can't make if Friday night, don't worry. There will be another performance Saturday night. Head to the Ojibwe Room Saturday at 6:00.
((Jesse)) If you missed last weeks performance of the musical "A Man of No Importance" don't worry, it's not too late.
Grab a seat in the riverside Theatre in Hobbs, because the musical returns February 26th and runs through
March second.
