Astronomy: Myths and Misconceptions

Time: 7:00 PM-8:30 PM
Place: Keene Public Library, Auditorium
Price: Free
Ages: Older kids


Our universe is so big and full of mystery, it can be hard to know what’s true about space and what’s a bit out there. This lecture presented by astronomer Matt Marulla will help you distinguish fact from fiction. Matt will discuss a variety of unusual astronomical beliefs, from the moon landing being faked to being able to balance an egg on its end during the spring equinox. He’ll set the record straight as to what’s accurate astronomy and what’s mere celestial superstition.
The program is co-sponsored by the Keene Amateur Astronomy Club.

Experience Shakespeare’s original language from the award-winning and vibrant Classical Theatre Project. This stunning production of Romeo & Juliet is inspired by 16th century morality plays, but designed specifically with the 21st century audience in mind. Wandering players transform an Elizabethan marketplace into a playing space with a chalk circle and the audience’s imagination. This stunning production captures the youthful passion and ultimate tragedy of Shakespeare’s best-loved story.  Romeo & Juliet was nominated for Outstanding Performance in the Theatre for Young Audiences Division at the Dora Mavor Moore Awards in 2007. The performance captures the youthful passion, beauty, and ultimate tragedy of Shakespeare’s timeless and unforgettable story.

Over the last ten years, Classical Theatre Project has inspired, educated, and entertained over a half a million students, proving that Shakespeare doesn’t have to be boring.
