Take Cate Jo, for example: A native of Birmingham, Alabama, she originally arrived on the Vanderbilt campus with an eye toward a career in academia, ultimately changing course to pursue a career as an actress. Most recently, she played the challenging role of Bianca in Tennessee Women's Theater Project's production of Lauren Gunderson's The Taming, a fanciful contemporary comedy that fairly crackled with intensity as it examined popular and political culture in the United States, viewing the trajectory of American political thought from the earliest days of the republic to the present. Earlier this year, she played Lady Nijo and Nell in Vanderbilt University Theatre's production of Caryl Churchill's Top Girls.

The actor stopped by NBC's TODAY to share that his background as a dancer helps him do the super-speed sequences on the show, and gives an impressive demonstration.
Things seemed to speed to a nifty close at the end of Season 1, but did any of us really think that tear in the fabric of time and space wouldn't come back to haunt Barry (Grant Gustin)?

Attention: students slogging through boring classes of quantum mechanics - have I got a show for you. Go see Copenhagen, the Tony-Award winning play now being staged at the Rubicon Theatre Company in Ventura. Written in 1998 by Michael Frayn (Noises Off), Copenhagen is an imaginative 'what-if' story about a mysterious encounter between former friends and colleagues Werner Heisenberg and Niels Bohr. The meeting actually took place, in Copenhagen, Denmark in September 1941. Bohr, a Danish scientist who explored the principle of complementarity, was the mentor of Heisenberg, a German theoretical physicist working on quantum theory who had been recruited by the Nazi government to help develop an atomic weapon to be used against the Allies during World War II. What isn't known is what the two discussed, which brings about a fascinating cat-and-mouse game as the two explore the laws of classical mechanics.

Love can conquer all - sometimes even death. That's the premise behind this new novel released by Dog Ear Publishing that blends romance, myth and science. Eulba, a physicist and mathematician exploring theories on the universe, had a unique relationship with her boyfriend, Beloved, another brilliant person. Their romance somehow continues despite his untimely death, and Eulba discovers that science and myth are simply two sides of the same coin, representing the same reality from different points of view.
'Eulba' opens as the couple first meets - Eulba is quickly drawn to the blue-eyed handsome man and slyly signs up for a math tutoring session, only to be quickly found out as the one who's been writing anonymous notes of admiration. Their relationship becomes physical and blooms until Beloved's experimenting with mind-altering substances leads to fateful consequences. She finds that her relationship with Beloved has not, in fact, ended with his death but continues, thanks to mythical forces that rule the cosmos, parallel universes and the elasticity of time.
As Eulba begins to believe the myths of the Maya, she decides to enter that world. It will take an act of self-sacrifice for her to make the journey and be reunited with Beloved. Powerful imagery and colorful prose, as well as beautiful verse, set the scene for a story of unbreakable bonds and the wonders of the universe.
