1. ‘Angels in America’ film screening @ Leckhampton House – Friday 28/10 at 7pm
There will be a showing of Angels in America – from beginning to end – from 7pm on Friday 28th October at Leckhampton House.
Angels in America – an epic movie 6 hours in length – stars Al Pacino, Meryl Streep and Emma Thompson and is the winner of 5 Golden Globe Awards. It’s based on Tony Kushner’s Pulitzer Prize-winning play (of the same name), focusing on the outbreak of AIDS in the 1980s and the interplay of politics and religion in America during this time: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0318997/
Please do come if you can. I’ll bake some cake and bring snacks to keep us going. Just drop me a line (rac87) or go to the facebook event (http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=129730967132281) so that I have an idea about numbers.

2. ‘Breakfast on Pluto’ film screening @ Winstanley Lecture Theatre, Trinity College – Friday 28/10 at 7.45pm
This Friday, CUSU LGBT will be showing Neil Jordan’s Golden Globe nominated ‘Breakfast on Pluto’. This dark comedy stars Cillian Murphy as a transgender orphan searching for love and her long-lost mother in small town Ireland and London in the 1970s.
This is a trans* night, but cisgender friends and allies are most welcome.

3. Sunday Social @ Costa Coffee (Sidney Street) – Sunday 30/10 from 1pm
Hi all. To keep it fair, I feel it’s our duty to visit all the coffee shops in Cambridge by the end of the year. After Waterstones, Nero, and Pret, come join us for Sunday Social at 1 this Sunday at Costa Coffee (we’ll most likely be downstairs) on Sidney Street. Look out for Homer Simpson, or call me on 07772880222 if you can’t find us. Their Hot Chocolate is worth killing for.
Looking forward to seeing many of you there,
Tach
