Do Yourself a Favor -- Go See Stupid Humans!
WOW -- I just spent two plus hours, thoroughly entertained at the opening night of Stupid Humans. There are eight more scheduled performances, over the next ten days, here at Notre Dame.
I laughed, I cried, I was amazed...
The talents of Jorge "Jay" Rivera-Herrans '20 (photo above) was on full display -- as was the storytelling skill of Notre Dame's Matt Hawkins (Director of ND's Musical Theatre).
The cast is great, the music is fantastic -- and the story is powerful.
It's a musical that you must see.
Truly incredible.

Notre Dame Mom Receives Major Honor...
WNDU-TV anchor Maureen McFadden was given the Sagamore of the Wabash award (learn more about the honor at the link below) today by Indiana Governor Eric Holcomb. Maureen, a Saint Mary's graduate and the mother of a Notre Dame alum (and two Indiana University alums) has teamed up with her Domer brother Terry McFadden here on the airways in South Bend.
