Two teams - LAVA and OBSIDIAN battle for ultimate SPORTS glory! Are our knees past their prime? YES. Are we good at SPORTS? YES AND NO AND ALSO KINDA. So why are we playing sports? Because now we’re ADULTS and there’s questions we can only answer in the SWEAT-POURING, HEART-POUNDING HEAT OF COMPETITION that we sure as hell couldn’t answer in middle school gym class.

We take the field to FIND OUT–what’s the line between HEALTHY and UNHEALTHY competition? What MYTHIC VERSIONS of ourselves are awakened in the whole-body pursuit of victory?

So will YOU be there to root on your team and guide them to glory? HELL FREAKIN YEAH.

And listen--is your relationship with sports kinda complicated? OURS TOO. Some of us were going to be headed for the OLYMPICS but it SUCKED THE JOY OUT OF COMPETING. Some of us went to college to play volleyball and then tore our Achilles and found THEATER. Some of us avoided sports as much as we could because of TOXIC MASCULINITY. As queer people, people with bodies past peak athletic performance, and artists, what belonging can we find&nbsp;as we collectively DUNK ON OUR DEMONS?

SO DON’T MISS this one-time-only professionally performed, athletically amateur, everything-on-the-line SPORTS EXTRAVAGANZA.

SPORTS! Schedule: Tailgate 3:00-5pm FREE queer pre-show tailgate event and cornhole tournament hosted by partner OutLoud Sports. Show 5-7pm SPORTS! Performance Movie 7:30-9:30pm sports film screening hosted by cinéSPEAK, free with your SPORTS! ticket or $5-10 walk-up for the screening only.

Neighborhood House

From Philadelphia favorites Applied Mechanics comes a spectacular new show, RUN BEN RUN: a maniacal, surreal satire starring famous Bens from throughout American history, from Ben Franklin to Ben Affleck. Thrown together on a film set with the goal of making a movie about the John Gast painting American Progress, the Bens wrestle with identity, fame, and the versions of American identity that live within each of us. The play surrounds the audience with a panoply of different offerings from the different Bens. Will Ben Affleck be able to finish his movie without his star, Ben Franklin? Will Ben Vereen dance his way out of danger? Will Benedict Arnold clear his name? And will Benito Antonio Ocasio Cortez (Bad Bunny) finally write the song to bring us together? The Bens begin to wonder: can they rewrite history? Or should they just… run away?
Using drag, choreography, pastiche, and an absurd original script, some of Philly’s favorite performers craft a spectacle that tears apart the underlying assumptions about American Progress.

Gloucester County Historical Society Museum, 58 N. Broad Street in Woodbury

The <a href="https://www.gchsnj.org/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Gloucester County Historical Society</a>&nbsp;takes a look back at the ghost stories from the Civil War in a special presentation in its Museum hosted by Civil War reenactor Vince Dicicco from 7:00 to 8:00 PM on Friday, October 15. He will detail the haunted sites, errie encounters, and tales of apparitions reported from buildings and sites across the grounds where the Battle of Gettysburg was fought.
Gettysburg is considered one of the most haunted places in the country, with numerous accounts of ghostly regiments, phantom horsemen, and mysterious faces appearing in photographs. Sites like Devil’s Den at Gettysburg, Bloody Lane at Antietam, Chickamauga, Sharpsburg, Shiloh, and Andersonville are well-known for reports of spectral soldiers wandering the grounds or reenacting historical battles.
Tourists and locals at Gettysburg have reported seeing apparitions, hearing the sounds of battle, and encountering unexplained phenomena around landmarks such as the Gettysburg Orphanage, Farnsworth House, and Soldier’s Orphanage cellar. Bloody Lane at Antietam has tales of ghostly singing, vanishing Confederate soldiers, phantom gunfire, and strange smells attributed to lingering spirits of fallen men.
Tickets available at $15/person. Tickets must be <a href="https://www.gchsnj.org/shop/vince-dicicco/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">purchased in advance online</a>.

Woodbury Friends Meetinghouse at 124 North Broad Street in Woodbury

In a <a href="https://www.gchsnj.org/shop/presentation-when-british-general-charles-cornwallis-occupied-gloucester-county/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">presentation</a> at 1 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 17, at the Woodbury Friends Meeting House, historian Patrick Ward will recount the local Revolutionary War campaigns of British General Charles Cornwallis, one of Great Britain’s most aggressive and capable senior field commanders during the American Revolution. Cornwallis’ later maneuvers in the South ultimately culminated in his surrender at Yorktown, the final battle of the war, in 1781.
Cosponsored by the <a href="https://www.gchsnj.org/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Gloucester County Historical Society</a> and the <a href="https://www.southjerseyquakers.org/woodbury-friends-meeting/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Woodbury Friends Meeting</a>, the event is open to the public and admission is free.
Ward is a Southern New Jersey historian whose interest focuses on Gloucester City, the Delaware River, and the region’s Revolutionary War history. Cosponsored by the Gloucester County Historical Society and the Friends Meeting, the event is free and open to the public.
Titled “British General Lord Cornwallis Marches to Woodbury and Gloucester County in November 1777,” Ward’s PowerPoint presentation will include maps from the period, information about the military units that participated, personal accounts from those on the march, and details about how the Americans responded to Cornwallis’ forces.
On Oct. 22, 1777, Hessian forces failed to capture Fort Mercer at Red Bank. By holding the fort, American troops disrupted efforts to resupply the British Army in Philadelphia by way of the Royal Navy and other supply vessels on the Delaware River.
General Sir William Howe, commander in chief of the British land forces, responded by organizing a larger expedition against Fort Mercer. He placed General Lord Cornwallis in command of the attacking force.
On Nov. 17, 1777, a combined force of British and Hessian troops landed south of Fort Billingsport, New Jersey, and began marching north through Gloucester County. Additional British troops from New York City landed at Fort Billingsport under the command of General Thomas Wilson.
Cornwallis assumed command of the combined force, estimated at 4,900 troops, and led it north toward Fort Mercer at Red Bank. Their objective was to eliminate the last remaining American threat to British shipping on the Delaware River.
Ward’s presentation will include an opportunity for informal discussion with the audience.
