The Hartford Stage Company is one of the most acclaimed regional theaters in the country. It has hosted world premiers of several plays that have gone on to be huge successes on Broadway, including Anastasia, Marvin’s Room, and A Gentleman’s Guide to Love and Murder. Now you will have an opportunity to go behind the scenes and see how it is all done.   On May 14, 2025 at 6:30 p.m., the MIT Club of Hartford and New London will host a behind the scenes tour of the Hartford Stage Company. We will see everything that goes into a production, including set design and construction, lighting, props, costuming, and much more. The tour will be conducted by the Hartford Stage Company staff. We are currently waiting on word to see if Melia Bensussen, Artistic Director of the Hartford Stage Company, will join us. Following the tour the Club will host a reception with light snacks in the theater’s upper lobby. This is one event you surely do not want to miss. The price for this event is $18.00 for Club members and $22.00 for non-members.   May 14, 2025 at 6:30 p.m. at the Hartford Stage Company; 50 Church Street in Hartford.

MITCASA has a book club in San Antonio. We focus on popular STEM non-fiction or hard-science science fiction (not hard to read, but science-oriented) that will fit into our busy lives (no textbooks, Ph.D. theses, or thousand-page novels). We can choose other subjects, too. Each month, we’ll choose books for the following month by consensus.

The thirteenth meeting will be on Monday, May 19, 2025, from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM. We’ll meet at Rome’s Pizza at 5999 De Zavala Road, San Antonio, TX 78249. Rome’s Pizza has counter service featuring salad’s, pasta, sandwiches, desserts, and ... wait for it … pizza.

This month’s book is The Wood Age: How One Material Shaped the Whole of Human History by biology professor Roland Ennos. It is available from Amazon in paperback and hardcover form. It is also available from the San Antonio Public Library under a different title, The Age of Wood, in book, eBook, and audiobook form.

From the Amazon description:

Roland Ennos’ The Wood Age is a love-letter to the world’s most vital and yet most threatened material. It is the story of how wood has shaped our human experience from the earliest foragers to the modern four poster bed.

‘A stunning book on the incalculable debt humanity owes wood…’ John Carey, The Sunday Times

In a journey to appreciate how much wood matters – and has done since prehistory – Roland Ennos takes the reader chronologically through four key phases: the impact of wooded habits on the lives of primates; human emergence and the discoveries of fire and woodwork; wood’s role in an environment both pre- and post-industrialisation; and lastly, the possible future of wood in an
increasingly technologized world.

In an original and essential investigation, The Wood Age challenges the traditional model of
historical development – stone, bronze, iron – and instead guide readers through a revealing and
innovative wooded history of the world.
