Don’t miss our new monthly series of screenings from the UBC Library’s feature film collection in Koerner Library. On the last Thursday of every month, join lovers of cinema to view and discuss titles from the Videomatica Collection.
The inaugural screening this term will be hosted by Stephen Heatley, Professor of Theatre, on Thursday September 25, at noon, in Koerner 216 with a screening of Trevor Nunn’s film version of Twelfth Night (1996).

Grant, and Ben Kingsley, is Shakespeare’s classic comedy of gender confusion, in which a girl disguises herself as a man to be near the count she adores, only to be pursued by the woman he loves. This film screening coincides with the opening of the Dept of Theatre and Film’s stage version.
