(PRINCETON, NJ) -- Here is a look at events taking place at the Princeton Public Library (65 Witherspoon Street) in August 2026. The month includes movie screenings, book discussions, music concerts, technology classes and more.
Addressing a serious health issue can be a stressful situation for those involved. It is rare to see a play take on a disease like malaria. However, a new play running at Premiere Stages at Kean is about this very topic. Mala Aria by Gloria Majule provides an opportunity to learn more about this disease and how it affects families. Although there are few cases of it reported yearly in the United States, it still needs to be taken seriously. In a number of African countries like Tanzania, one of the settings in the play, it is a different story. People live with the threat daily making it a more serious threat to human life.
