Congratulations to Ana Peduk of Aurora, IL 60504 for being an important part of the team that staged Lawrence University's Winter Term theatrical production, "Moliere Inspired."

Nearly 40 Lawrence students worked together in the cast and crew in presenting "Moliere Inspired," a production from Lawrence's Department of Theatre Arts in celebration of the French playwright's 400th birthday.

The production also was a celebration of collaborations across academic departments, as well as collaborations between faculty and students.

Funded by a summer research grant, Lawrence junior Claire Chamberlin translated short plays under the supervision of Eilene Hoft-March, the Milwaukee-Downer College and College Endowment Association Professor of Liberal Studies and professor of French. The translations were then handed off to Kathy Privatt, the James G. and Ethel M.
