The newly renovated Outland Complex teased a new show they are calling âStudy Hall.â The show, scheduled for 9 p.m. Friday, Feb. 26, is set to feature local artists and bands from Missouri State University like Newport Blue, Justin Larkin and Missouri State Improv.
According to President of Missouri State Improv Team, Annaliese Schroeder, this will be the teamâs first major performance outside of their typical weekly shows, held Wednesdays at 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. at the Plaster Student Union, room 315.
âIn the past, unless itâs affiliated with Missouri State, most performances we do outside of our regular weekly show, weâre only able to send a handful of people,â Schroeder said. âWhatâs exciting about this show is that we get to have 12 people go out and perform.â
Enjoying The Dilemma is made easier with a pre-existing appreciation for three things: sincere displays of platonic male love, postcard-perfect pictures of Chicago and Ron Howard’s quietly impressive craftsmanship. But even then, to fully embrace The Dilemma also requires a tolerance for tonal discordance and a sociological interest in the bridge between the earnestness of the bromance and the gender hegemony of toxic masculinity.
Vaughn stars as Ronny and Kevin James plays Nick, his best friend and business partner. They run a small automotive design firm that’s on the verge of a long-term contract with Dodge. Ronny and Nick both have stunning significant others played by Jennifer Connelly and Winona Ryder. Everything is looking up until Ronny sees Geneva (Ryder) cheating on Nick with a young hunk (Channing Tatum in a hilarious, off-kilter performance).
Tim Davie s diversity quotas aim to fill more roles with working-class people

Dear Mr Davie, sir,
[doffing cap] I am utterly thrilled – sorry, proper chuffed – that you have decided to introduce a new quota, so that more people like little old me, with our bad teeth and Asda points cards, can be employed at your hallowed Corporation.
It tickled me rotten that you’re doing all this to increase “diversity of thought”. I always reckoned us working-class folk had the same thoughts as you fancy chaps in London. I am a simple man. I may not have a bidet like you, nor have I ever knowingly eaten amaranth, but I reckon we’re not so different, despite what you think.
