This group is for those of you interested in Timey Wimey stuff. We meet to watch Doctor Who on the “big screen” in a Tallwood classroom. We will follow each presentation with discussion. Some of us are new to Who; some of us are longtime fans. Everyone is welcome. It’s going to be fantastic—so allons-y and may I just say—Geronimo! “Always remember to be kind.”

Members of Theater Lovers’ Group (TLG) attend plays and other theatrical events performed by various local groups in the many theaters in the DC metro area. We invite theatrical persons, such as directors and actors, to speak at our monthly meeting so we can be better informed about all things theater. We partner with other groups, such as Shillelagh Travel Club, for bus trips to attend theater in New York City. Membership, as well as attendance at TLG events, is open to all OLLI members and their guests. For more information, email Norma Reck at njreck@cs.com. Note that TLG also meets in Reston. See listing below.

This club was formed to discuss great works of world literature. For the fall term, we will focus on two novels by Virginia Woolf: Mrs. Dalloway and To the Lighthouse. We will supplement our reading with Michael Cunningham’s novel The Hours (a modern version of Mrs. Dalloway), and a viewing of the film version of Cunningham’s novel, starring Meryl Streep.
