The Center of the American West at the University of baby直播app at Boulder will present a mock divorce trial between the rural and urban West on Sunday, March 25, in Denver.
The program, sponsored by Common Ground - The Urban/Rural Connection, will be held from 1 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. at Augustana Lutheran Church, 5000 E. Alameda Ave. in Denver. It is free and open to the public.
The mock trial will be presented as a divorce hearing between Sandy Greenhills West (the rural West) and Urbana Asphalt West (the urban West). During the trial Sandy Greenhills seeks to sever his relationship with Urbana citing irreconcilable differences ranging from "failure to support" to infidelity through flirtation with foreign markets.
Performers will include Patricia Nelson Limerick, professor of history at CU-Boulder, as Urbana Asphalt West, and Dr. Charles Scoggin, CEO and co-founder of Sage Medical Institute Inc. of Boulder, as Sandy Greenhills West. Also participating will be Tamar Scoggin, an intern at the Center of the American West, as Suburbia Greenlawn West. Members of the community will play the judge and urban witnesses.
The program was made possible by a grant from the Congregational Ministries Board of the Rocky Mountain Synod of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America.
The mission of the CU-Boulder Center of the American West is to explore the distinctive character and issues of the region and to help Westerners become well-informed, participating citizens in their communities.
