Nehprii Amenii, director
A multimedia performance installation about “human value,” Food for the Gods is a three-part expression of rage and indifference. Inspired by the killings of Black men, this work uses object and puppet performance to explore dehumanization, light, invisibility and well…the magical-less-ness of it all.
Some of the School of Music’s finest bands come together for a crowd-pleasing extravaganza. Featuring the University Band, the Maryland Community Band and the grand finale: the Mighty Sound of Maryland Marching Band! It’s an upbeat, lively show that is fun for the entire family.
