The Truth about the Break Bus at UC

The truth about the Break Bus at UC is that to understand it, you must experience it.

The truth about the Break Bus at UC is that you cannot beat a $70 round trip from Utica to NYC that picks you up 500 feet away from your room. #NoCabFare

The truth about the Break Bus is that when everyone is on the bus, THEY ARE ON THE BUS. The break bus is not quite, it is not a place to read your Sylvia Plath, no no no. It might be a place to read your Fifty Shades of Grey Novel, because a if you do not join the party, then at least have one in your head.

The truth about the Break Bus is that if I were to describe it in pop culture, maybe as a song, it would be Ellie Goulding’s “On My Mind”. If I decided to take the RnB route, It would an be just about any Outkast song. (But click the hyper link, because I chose one anyway).

The truth about the Break Bus is it sells out faster than you can say “supercalifragillisticexpialidocious”. And to all those who are thinking it, yes–to be fair, that is a pretty big word.

The truth about the Break Bus is you just gotta ride it. No one is more excited than a group full of people who get to escape the jaws of school work for a little while.

A Moment at Dawn

At dawn life is most still

Hardly a soul in sight

Only nature breaks the silence

between the darkness and the light

It’s before the sun rises

All of the world being its latter

That there’s a sort of serenity

Where nothing seems to matter

At times like this

They say its easy to find your head

So, could this be some sort of solace?

Or just another thing said

Let this image be a moment

One in which resembles peace

In this little city of Utica

More than I know under my feet

Syracuse Stage Presents: Steve Martin’s “The Underpants”

Syracuse Stage tickets are currently available for purchase in the Arts & Sciences office (Gordon 286) for $15 each at Utica College; A program that consistently offers students (and others) the opportunity to get tickets for Broadway plays at a great price.

This sale offers viewings for comedian Steve Martin from ‘The Underpants,’ as directed by Bill Fennelly.

The following is a trailer for the show. A little sneak peek, so you know what you’re getting:

“A guffaw inducing comedy from the wild and crazy mind of the incomparable Steve Martin. Dusseldorf, 1910. A very public wardrobe malfunction (a young woman’s underpants fall down at a parade—for the King!) becomes the talk of the town in this ribald update of an uproarious German farce. (Yes, there is such a thing.) Chock-full of sexual innuendo, verbal jousting, and non-stop laughter, The Underpants skewers the absurdity of instant fame. Das ist funny! Bill Fennelly (Hairspray, A Midsummer Night’s Dream) directs.”

“Hilarious and bawdy.” – The Village Voice

“Valiantly eccentric.” – The New York Times

If you’ve never seen a Broadway kind of performance, consider this one. Reviews for the show are raving.

Tickets are for the performance on Saturday, October 24 at 3:00 p.m.

Transportation by bus will be available free of charge to students. The buses will depart from Strebel Circle by 1:20 p.m. While they may give you an extra five minutes or so, you’ll want to be there on time. You don’t want to miss it.
