Also tonight, there&#8217;s a group student show at the substation at Wits (called <i>eyeshadow<\/i>), followed by a bit of a going away party for Malcolm Purkey, former head of Drama, now taking over as the director of the Market Theatre in Newtown.<\/p>\n<p>Tomorrow is another digi-day at the Convent, too. WSOA&#8217;s Digital Arts department will be presenting the finished works from Colleen Alborough&#8217;s stop-frame animation course (12:45) , and then at 3 PM, Cobi van Tonder and Aryan Kaganof present some work they&#8217;ve been doing &#8211; this should be very interesting.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll be jumping around between as many of these as I can.
