Letters to the editor

ARTS

We've all seen images of it on television, in video stores, or on the web, but many of us may not have a clear notion of what animé is about.

Passion and sensuality seem to be a running theme at Eisenhower Auditorium this month. Last week the steamy musical Chicago got audiences riled up and at 8 tomorrow night Tango Pasión will melt some hearts.

Imagine the cast of Friends on an episode of Sex and the City, and you'll understand this week's No Refund Theater production of And She Was.

Rap artist and Penn State student Glaccius will perform at 7 tonight at Mike's Movies and Music, 210 E. Calder Way.

Think twice before you toss that gum wrapper in the trash can, be sure to give those red bins on the sides of the road a thorough inspection, and above all, remember that your junk drawer is full of hidden potential.

Focused on its love of punk music, Giving Chase hopes to attract more fans by touring this summer.

While the cast of Tango Pasion is in State College, members will be making a pit stop with the Penn State Ballroom Dance Club to teach them a few new moves.

Students spending this summer in Happy Valley will have the opportunity to participate in the 35th annual Central Pennsylvania Festival of the Arts.

Here is the chance for artistic members of the public to revolutionize the slogan-writing industry.
