Virtual Think Tank
Join us at one of the Virtual Think Tanks to share your insight into the Thacher Strategic Planning Process. Hosted and led by our planning partner, Leadership + Design.Fall Play: "Noises Off"
Noises Off is a 1982 farce by the English playwright Michael Frayn.
Frayn conceived the idea in 1970 while watching from the wings a performance of The Two of Us, a farce that he had written for Lynn Redgrave. He said, "It was funnier from behind than in front, and I thought that one day I must write a farce from behind."[1] The prototype, a short-lived one-act play called Exits, was written and performed in 1977. At the request of his associate, Michael Codron, Frayn expanded this into what would become Noises Off. It takes its title from the theatrical stage direction indicating sounds coming from offstage. -

Art History Lecture: A Madonna for the Holidays
A lecture open to the community.
Location: Hearst Hall
This past summer, a portrait of the Madonna and Child from the school of the 17th-
century Italian painter, Giovanni Battista Salvi da Sassoferrato, was resurrected from
the basement of the Indianapolis Museum of Art where it had been shelved since it was
last exhibited in 1987. The painting was in storage and awaiting auction to cull the
collection and make room for new acquisitions. What prompted the sudden renewed
interest in the painting?
