ENG 226 Students:

Two things:

1. A reminder about the play
2. An online service you can use, as Saint Leo Students, to help with your papers (in any course you take at Saint Leo)

(see below)

-----

_Woyzeck_ will be performed at . . .

. . . the main campus, March 24-27 at 8:00pm (seating at 7:30).

The Saint Leo University Theatre Company will produce Georg Büchner’s classic modernist piece, _Woyzeck_ (pronounced voyt’-seck), March 24 through 27 in Selby Auditorium.

Admission is free and all performances start at 8:00 p.m., with doors opening at 7:30 p.m. This play has no intermission, and latecomers will not be seated after the show starts.

Based loosely on the life of an actual soldier, the play tells the story of a man, Franz Woyzeck, whose paranoia and delusions force themselves to come true. This classic piece of modern theatre merits a rating of PG-13 for some violence and mild language.

For more information contact Mr. David McGinnis, Assistant Professor of English and Theater, at either (352) 588-8401 or by e-mail: david.mcginnis@saintleo.edu.

-------------

Also, please give this new service a try with your final papers and give me some feedback. Is it a good service? Is it/Was it worth your time?

Sentenceworks is an automated grammar tutor and revision tool for academic writing.
