Smith Hall Theatre, Smith Memorial Building
Saturday, September 13th at 7:00pm After playing Jerry Lee Lewis in “Million Dollar Quartet” in over 75 cities, Jason Cohen brings his ivory-smashing, high-energy performance to a new theatrical concert. Cohen might not be from the South or have blonde hair, but as the stories he shares tell us, he found connection with ‘The Killer’ through the music. Alongside his multi-talented, multi-instrumentalist band of singer-musicians, the audience will be quickly reminded of the power of those tunes. Featuring songs of Lewis’s contemporaries such as Elvis, Cash, and Buddy, as well as the New Orleans and gospel traditionals that inspired Lewis, Great Balls of Fire will have the audience dancing, singing, and saying “goodness gracious – when can we buy tickets again?!” Endstation welcomes "Great Balls of Fire" as the second act in its Jukebox Concert Series!10 a.m.Science Saturday - Graph Theory and Mazes

Or where pigments come from, especially in the days before artist supply stores? In this session, we’ll synthesize the green pigment malachite and talk about its use in oil, acrylic, and tempura paint.

Reception to follow. Sponsored by Randolph College’s Museum and Heritage Studies Program.3 - Fri^4 p.m.2025 Randolph College Greek Play Sophocles’ Antigone
Dell, Outdoor Areas
The 2025 Randolph College Greek Play is Sophocles’ Antigone, which pits the title character against Creon, the current ruler of Thebes. Antigone’s brother Polynices has died while attacking Thebes to regain the throne from his brother Eteocles, who also dies in the conflict. Creon decrees that Eteocles may be given a proper burial, but that Polynices must be left for the birds and dogs, since he traitorously raised an army against his hometown. Antigone defies the order and buries her brother, and Creon condemns her to death. Their actions set in motion many unintended consequences. The play dramatizes the conflicts we still have between public and private, male and female, law and religion, state and family. Our production of Antigone in 2000 revived the Greek Play tradition, and we’ll be celebrating a quarter century of the renewed series in 2025!
