“Searching for Sugar Man”

Studio 217
217 S. Michigan St., South Bend, Ind.

This show regularly sells out as a testament to its absurdist fun. NOTE: mature language. Are you immature enough to handle it? I hope so, but you may want to leave the kids home.

“The Invisible War”
6 p.m.
Riviera Theatre
50 N. Main St.
Three Rivers
(269) 278-8068

I wonder if there will ever be a week I don’t tell you to check out something at the Riviera Theatre. Get a glimpse into the rising rate of sexual abuse against women in the U.S. military. Did you know that a female soldier in a combat zone is more likely to be raped by a fellow soldier than killed by enemy fire? Yet another courageous film shown at the Riviera.

7:30 p.m.
DeBartolo Performing Arts Center            100 Performing Arts Center
Notre Dame, Ind.

This film documents the tragic Stones performance at the Altamont Speedway in December 1969 where concertgoer Meredith Hunter was stabbed to death by Hell’s Angel Alan Passaro, while the Stones played on. This film was instrumental in Passaro’s acquittal after footage showed Hunter pulled a gun after being punched.
