His big Sundance announcement...
Which Penn alum just made a big announcement on Monday regarding the Sundance Film Festival?
Click here to find out!
Geoffrey Gilmore (C'74), Sundance fest director just announced that the film, In Bruges will open the 2008 Sundance Film Festival on January 17. Per Variety, "The film stars Colin Farrell and Brendan Gleeson as two hit men forced to take a vacation in Bruges, Belgium."
“In many ways ‘In Bruges’ is a quintessential Sundance film -- it’s brutal, philosophical, funny and totally original,” said Gilmore.
FYI, Geoff was a participant in the 2002 Los Angeles Penn in Pictures Panel (featured in photo above) held at Arclight Cinemas. Other panelists included moderator Lew Schneider (C'83, Friars, Everybody Loves Raymond writer), Cary Phillips (CIS '91, Principal Engineer at Industrial Light and Magic) and Josh Goldsmith (C'92, King of Queens writer).

Halftime dance with Creepy Quaker Dude
Apparently there was a dance competition during the halftime show of the first home basketball game of the season.
As you'll see, one undergrad tried to upshow C.Q.D. (Creepy Quaker Dude).

A home on campus for bands, jugglers, irish fiddlers, & belly dancers
I love this.
It seems with the new Platt Student Performing Arts House, Penn has really been providing students with some very cool opportunities. (thank you Marc Platt (C'79)!)
From this fantastic program to an even more fantastic, dare I say "cool" opportunity open to students, staff, faculty and alums(!).
More after the jump...
Twice a semester, the Penn Collective sponsors "Up on Stage". From their website, performers have included "musicians, bands, jugglers, irish fiddlers, belly dancers, a capella groups, jazz quintets, folk musicians, and a large number of other performers."
This is awesome! A mini Pennfest of sorts.
Nick Gonedes, the director of the program explains, "We schedule the first two hours of our shows (4 segments, 30 mins each). After that, we allow "walk ins" to perform. (That's the real "open mic" part of each show.)"
Their next show is on Sat., 12/1.
Next semester's shows are indicated on their website: http://www.penncollective.com.
Those interested in performing should email Nick Gonedes at gonedes@wharton.upenn.edu.
Check out this video from a recent "Up on Stage" night
Have you taken a peek at the 500+ Penn related videos we've got (divided neatly into categories? :)
