SUNDAY WITH THE FRIENDS : THE BRITISH ARE HERE!
Straight out of 1774, Private Zeih of His Majesty’s 64th Regiment of Foot shares his thoughts on life in the British Army. He’ll expound upon the details of his uniform, explain his equipment piece-by-piece, demonstrate weapons and discuss battle tactics.

BOOKED FOR MURDER
The Overlook by Michael Connelly
When a physicist with access to radioactive materials turns up murdered, the authorities believe that it’s part of a terrorist plot. Detective Harry Bosch must battle the FBI to make sure that this murder isn’t swept under the rug in the larger War on Terror. Twelve action-packed hours follow in this adrenaline rush of a mystery
7 p.m. in the Main Library Meeting Room

SATURDAY, JUNE 13

LAKEWOOD PUBLIC CINEMA: Alien
Directed by Ridley Scott Rated R In space, no one can hear you scream… unless you’re in a pressurized cabin or something. At any rate, this is one smart, scary, strangely sexy movie—filled with pulse-pounding suspense and subtle imagery. Sigourney Weaver’s eyes practically tell the whole story when deep space truckers encounter a new life form that threatens to destroy the crew one by one.
6 p.m. in the Main Library Auditorium

SUNDAY, JUNE 14

SUNDAY WITH THE FRIENDS : Thunderwalk Jazz Duo
Two guitarists from the Akron-based ThunderWalk Jazz Quartet will mix classic jazz standards with ballads, swing music and some original compositions for an earthshaking afternoon.
