Review: THE OUTSIDER Charms at the MATCH from MIGHTY ACORN And WCO PRODUCTIONS
by Brett Cullum - Apr 4, 2024
Part of the genius of THE OUTSIDER is it is pure farce. Characters and plots are played larger than life, and doors constantly swing open with new surprises behind them. We’re not in the sturm and drang of THE WEST WING, but rather the territory of a silly sitcom like VEEP. Physical comedy, verbal banter, and just plain stupid stuff happens, and this cast is up to the challenge of delivering all of it. The director has found some of Houston's funniest, most likable actors.

by Student Blogger: Jules Donohue - Apr 1, 2024
For all your time management and organizational needs, I've made a list of 10 apps on my phone that have helped me to coordinate my plans and handle my course load, responsibilities, to-do lists, etc. during my first year of college. Without the following apps, which I've used more in my fall and spring semester than I ever had before my freshman year in college, I'd be much more of a mess than I already am.
