If people without reserved tickets would like to wait for any available, unfilled seats at the Stephens Performing Arts Center, they should arrive by 6:15 p.m. on March 9. If there are unused tickets and/or unfilled seats by 6:45, they will be allowed to fill those seats in the order they arrived in the waiting area at the Stephens Center.

Live remote broadcasts will take place in Pocatello, Idaho Falls, Twin Falls, and Meridian.  Seats will be filled on a first-come, first-served basis.

The ISU Reading Project consists of a series of events geared toward encouraging interest, discussion and debate between readers.  This year the novel, “The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time” by Mark Haddon, winner of the 2004 Commonwealth Writers’ Prize for Best First Book, was chosen by the committee. 

Temple Grandin was born with autism and has been an advocate for early intervention based on her own personal experience for many years.  As a strong believer in neurodiversity, Grandin embraces her autism and has become a role model for younger generations.
