Malaysian Cultural Night 2020 (February 2, 2020 6:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/71700 71700-17868607@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Sunday, February 2, 2020 6:00pm
Location: Lydia Mendelssohn Theatre
Organized By: Michigan Malaysian Students' Association (MiMSA)

For the past 10 years, the Michigan Malaysian Students' Association (MiMSA) has come together to prepare for one special night every year: the Malaysian Cultural Night.
Free for all, people of all ages are welcome to spend their evening with a musical that delves into Malaysian art, culture and racial dynamics. Guests are also invited for a free dinner with some good Malaysian company after the show. This year, we present Kita.

Kita (Us)

Malaysian Cultural Night 2020 will follow the story of 4 Malaysian students who transferred to the University of Michigan, each with their unique background stories. The light hearted play will showcase unity among ethnically diverse people, and most importantly, the significance of true friendship. The characters will embody individuals that struggle with family expectations, finding their identities away from home, making friends all whilst adapting to a new culture in a new country. This play is highly relatable to students who are studying abroad, and it aims to realize the experience as well as to educate the non-Malaysian audience on our identity. MCN 2020 will also showcase a variety of traditional dances from different ethnic groups in Malaysia.

Women were first admitted to the University of Michigan in 1870. This exhibit at the Bentley Historical Library tells the story of earlier, unsuccessful attempts by women to enter U-M, the process by which the Regents eventually reached the decision resulting in the admission of women, and experiences of some of the first women to matriculate at the University. Visit the Bentley to see actual documents drawn from the Bentley collection and others.
