Feast of the Gods, Next College Night

Celebrate Aphrodite and the rest of the Olympians with a Greek-inspired dinner and entertainment. Enjoy a family style dinner of delicious Mediterranean dishes, and a full array of desserts. Watch a preview performance from "Helen of Egypt," a re-imagining of the classic story of Helen of Troy, acted by UCSC students under the direction of Cowell's own Mary-Kay Gamel.

After the show, join the open mic on stage to read your poetry or make professions of all types of love; boyfriend, sister, pet hamster, running, philosophy... whatever it is that you adore, tell Cowell!

Dress to impress Helen... both formal wear and togas are wholeheartedly encouraged! Bring your friends or your valentine, and get ready to revel in the atmosphere of compassion and Ancient Greece. See you there!
