Rose-Hulman presents Guys and Dolls
The show, by writer Damon Runyon, centers on a fictional New York City where gambler Nathan Detroit (played by Dane Meyers) is trying to get cash to set up the biggest craps game in town while authorities are breathing down his neck. It also follows Detroit's girlfriend and nightclub performer Miss Adelaide (played by Lainie Lawrence) lamenting about the couple being engaged for 14 years, fellow gambler Sky Masterson (played by Eli Fritz) who Detroit goes to for money, and Sarah Brown (played by Hannah Ritchhart) a straight laced missionary who Masterson ends up chasing as a result.
The show will be directed by Trevor Hanson and takes place in several settings, such as Times Square, cafes in Havana, Cuba, and even the sewers of The Big Apple. Several students fill out the large cast list. The show will take place at 7:30 p.m. on Friday, April 25, and 1:30 p.m. on Saturday, April 26, and Sunday, April 27.
Tickets are currently on sale for all three shows and cost $20 for adults and $15 for those under 18. You can purchase tickets here, by calling the ticket office at 812-877-8544, or by visiting the ticket desk at Hatfield Hall from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Tuesday through Friday. If tickets are still available, they will also be on sale at the ticket desk an hour before each show.

MLB broadcaster cracks Chris Martin joke amid Coldplay 'kiss cam' drama that led to CEO's resignation
Chris Martin has been the talk of social media this weekend after an embarrassing jumbotron moment during a Coldplay concert caught the CEO of Astronomer and its head of human resources cozying up. A different Chris Martin took the mound for the Texas Rangers against the Detroit Tigers Friday night. Tigers broadcaster Jason Benetti used the moment to reference the controversy. "CEOs beware …. Chris Martin is here. Out of the Rangers bullpen," Benetti said as Martin took the mound. Benetti was far from the only person in the sports world to poke fun at the moment. Martin has pitched in the majors since the 2014 season with the Colorado Rockies. He's played for the New York Yankees, Atlanta Braves, Chicago Cubs, Los Angeles Dodgers and Boston Red Sox. He won a World Series with the Braves in 2021. He struck out one batter in his relief appearance, and the Rangers won the game, 2-0. Astronomer CEO Andy Byron resigned from his job Saturday. "As stated previously, Astronomer is committed to the values and culture that have guided us since our founding," the company said in a statement Saturday to Fox News. "Our leaders are expected to set the standard in both conduct and accountability, and, recently, that standard was not met." Astronomer said Byron tendered his resignation, and the board of directors accepted. The unspecified relationship between Byron and Chief People Officer Kristin Cabot was revealed to the nation Wednesday night when they were spotted by the concert's "kiss cam." Cabot hurriedly turned and covered her face, while Byron awkwardly ducked behind a stadium seat, catching Coldplay lead singer Chris Martin's gaze. "Oh, look at these two," Martin joked to the crowd. "All right, c'mon, you're Ok. Oh, what? Either they're having an affair or they're just very shy." A social media frenzy started almost immediately, which led to Byron's resignation.

Metro Detroit nonprofit sharing free books to children, teachers at book bank
A Metro Detroit nonprofit organization is expanding its services. Birdie's Bookmobile is on a mission to end book deserts and improve literacy across the area. A few weeks ago, the organization opened a book bank. Nestled on the corner of Fischer Street and Mack Avenue on the east side of Detroit is Birdie's Book Nest. "I just wanted to make sure that if I was setting up a brick-and-mortar, if I was setting up a book bank, that it was here in the community that has supported me," Alyce Hartman, Birdie's Bookmobile's founder & executive director, said. Unlike a bookstore, the literature at the book bank is free. There's a large variety, including picture books in different languages, chapter books and graphic novels. "I think that having a love of reading, and being able to be transported into other worlds and to use your imagination and creativity in those ways, that's what was so important to me," Hartman said. By registering for Birdie's Book Nest, kids get three free books a month, and teachers get 12. "You have to read in order to be anything you want to be," Chanelle Draper, first-grade teacher at Detroit Prep, said. "I've been here every Saturday since she started it, and I absolutely loved it." Every Saturday at 10 a.m. is storytime. This weekend, kids are learning about Miss Betti, a former lunch lady who improved the quality of food at schools in Detroit. Everyone who attends Detroit's Bookfest this year can help the nest continue to grow. "Birdie's will be at Bookfest with a variety of yellow bins stationed all over the market," Ryan Place, founder of Detroit Bookfest, said. "People who want to donate new or gently used kids books can put them in the bins, and birdies will collect them and take them all over the city to kids who need them." With books for all ages from infants to teens, plus a bookcase for adults, Birdie's Book Nest is a haven for beginners and avid readers alike. "I enjoyed reading as a child, and I wanted children to have that same experience," Hartman said. The hope is to open a second location on the west side of Detroit in the future. Detroit Bookfest is Sunday, July 20, at Eastern Market.

The Vegas Minute: Survive the Summer in Style
'It's … hot.' – 'It's always hot.' – 'It's incredibly hot.' – 'Why are we here?!' For the uninitiated Vegas traveler, yes, it can be quite warm in the summer (Koppen climate classification Bwh: Hot Desert, if you want to get specific) so expect temps to soar into the high 90s, if not 110s, during your summer stay. Of course, the city is fully aware of the sunshine and has many ways to cool off: A/C's pumping 24/7, frosty frozen drinks and treats around every corner and, of course, hundreds and hundreds of unique pools to soak in. But if you're getting pruny in the water, what to do? Here are three absolutely unconventional, 'only-in-Vegas' ways to beat the heat! Unless you're up at 5 a.m., you're not going to get 18 holes of golf in during your stay without some serious sunshine beating down. Instead, try your hand at golf in the miniature at Swingers. Located within Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino, this wild take on mini golf features four 'crazy golf' courses, all surrounding a faux English country house. The courses feature familiar miniature golf trappings like windmills, as well as wilder challenges like jumps and loops. The family-friendly venue also features carnival games, Detroit-style pizza, delicious burgers and a delightful drink menu (and yes, some are frozen!). Best of all, the entire venue falls under the merciful layer of famed Vegas A/C, so you can wile out the heat of the day, having a blast and trying for that elusive hole-in-one. Of course, it's not just Vegas that is hot during the summer months – we all live within that extended dome of high temps that comprises the American Southwest. So, no matter where you go for a weekend escape, you'll be feeling some perspiration. Why not soar above it all? Flyover in Las Vegas, a unique movie-meets-ride-meets-experience, offers an immersive (and mercifully cool) way to see the splendor of our region. Hanging over a giant screen, you'll soar and move over stunning scenery from the West, including the Grand Canyon, Zion National Park and Lake Tahoe, all while feeling the mist, the breeze and the ups and downs of your adventure as your seat sways, swoops and caroms over the wraparound visuals. It's as close as you can come to being there, but one thing the designers edited out was the heat! Wait, what? L.A. has Cinespia. It's a very fun way to see a film outside – and L.A. gets cool at night. Why would you want to watch a movie outside in Las Vegas' summer? What if it's a 'Dive-In Movie'? At the Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas' Pool District, fan-favorite movies will be projected on their enormous marquee screen overlooking the Boulevard Pool on Mondays during the summer season. As the sun goes down and the heat backs off a bit, you can settle in with your feet in the pool and a frozen cocktail to catch The Goonies (June 23), Despicable Me (July 7) or even Elf for a little 'Christmas in July' (on the 25th during a special Friday showing and a themed night with special cocktails and bites). You can even get fancy and rent a cabana for the all-ages event, but let's be real here – in the heat of the summer, why wouldn't you take in a fine feature film from the pool itself?
