As many Brandeis students gathered on Chapels Field for Springfest, I decided to attend a different kind of rowdy performance: a puppet show full of slapstick for the kids and political jokes to get a few chuckles out of the parents. On Sunday, April 7, I sat down in the second row of the SCC Theater, surrounded by children with their parents and facing a classic boxy puppet theater alone on the stage. To American puppet theatergoers, the stock story of a Punch and Judy show is completely foreign. But these British archetypes of a dysfunctional puppet family — and perhaps an entire dysfunctional society — have been popping up at fairs and festivals in the English countryside for nearly 400 years.

One of my favorite things that happens during the Leonard Bernstein Festival of the Creative Arts each year is the transformation of mundane spaces on campus. This year, Slosberg Music Center became a museum of sound for a night. Six exhibits, each curated by a graduate student taking “MUS 196b: Sound in Space” with Assistant Professor of Music Dr. Erin Gee, filled the classrooms of Slosberg with new and exciting sound installments, most of which had interactive aspects for visitors to explore as they wandered about the building.

Dark clouds were not an impediment for the Light of Reason to shine over the Rose Art Museum last Friday evening. Unfortunately, this year’s SCRAM Jam — the annual party organized by the Student Committee for the Rose Art Museum — did not happen under the best meteorological conditions. Nevertheless, the event dedicated to community, self-expression and celebration of the arts gathered a considerable crowd that reminded us that art is not to be confined to the walls of a museum, but to be enjoyed as a dynamic rupture in public space.
