The Dark Crystal, Tuesday 9th March, 7pm, ALT 1 or 2
Hi everyone,
Tonight we're watching Jim Henson's puppet-fantasy The Dark Crystal. Here's
a synopsis:
"A fantastical, puppet-filled adventure, this tale co-directed by Muppet
creator Jim Henson and Frank Oz reveals the story of Jen, a young Gelfling
boy chosen by prophecy to mend the Dark Crystal, which broke 1,000 years ago
and plunged the land under the dominion of the evil, quarrelsome Skeksis.
Fearing the prophecy, whose fulfillment would mean the end of their reign,
the Skeksis exterminated the Gelflings--all but Jen and Kira, a girl he
meets on his journey to the crystal. Pursued by the Skeksis and their dark
creatures, Jen and Kira race to the crystal, even as their time runs out."
Afterwards we will go to the Stumble Inn as per usual.
Also, we're having our elections in a couple of weeks, so if you fancy
standing for the position of President, Secretary, Treasurer or Librarian,
and want to know what those jobs entail, then you can either check out the
constitution online here (
www.ifis.org.uk/society/constitution/2009_constitution.shtml) or have
a word with one of the current committee and we'll be able to fill you in.
See you tonight!
