Music Recital by the Bauer Kids (some)
 

 
Alex, Heidi and Marieke are giving a piano and cello recital (with friends) at Wells Music Store, 685 S. Broadway, Denver on Saturday 22nd March. The performance will be at 4pm and last an hour or so. They would love support from fellow homeschoolers who would enjoy hearing some fine playing from the classical repertoire (Bach, Mozart, Tchaikovsky, Beethoven, Chopin.....). Naomi will also be back with us for Spring Break, for those who would like to see her again.

Colorado Ballet Student Matinees
 

 
The Repertory Series- Friday March 14th 11 a.m.
One. Tu-tu. Three. Our repertory series is three-times as spectacular as a single ballet. Three different works. One breathtaking adventure. Colorado Ballet is extremely proud to present THE REPERTORY SERIES, a collection of 3 innovative, contemporary works from leading choreographers, featuring The Leaves Are Fading by Antony Tudor, …smile with my heart by Lar Lubovitch, with Richard Rodgers music, including “My Funny Valentine”, and a World Premiere by Complexions Contemporary Ballet Artistic Director Dwight Rhoden. These productions are new to Colorado Ballet and Denver, so don’t miss this opportunity to catch some of the most refreshing dance around!
These performances are an excellent, inexpensive way to introduce kids (and adults!) to the Arts at a reasonable time of day. If you want to go to either or both matinees as part of a MAHS 'group' call me asap (this week)and I'll order us a block of tickets, otherwise you can do it independently if you download the reservation form and email to education@coloradoballet.org or fax to 303-861-7174. Tickets can sell out so don't procrastinate too long if you wish to attend! Performances are at the Ellie Caulkins Opera House in the Performing Arts Complex downtown Denver.

The Denver Victorian Playhouse

 
Stones In His Pockets
By Marie Jones
Directed by Wade P. Wood
Feb. 22 - Mar. 29, 2008

Jake and Charlie are thirty-somethings who meet when working as extras on a big American movie being shot in Ireland. Charlie's video shop in Ballycastle has gone bankrupt and Jake has returned to Kerry after a futile few years in the US. The movie is a wonderful break from worrying about their futures, until the harsh realities of rural life break through.
 

Show times are 7:30pm Friday and Saturday and 2pm Sundays. Price: $22.

Evergreen Chorale

 

 

Man of La Mancha
Man of La Mancha first played at the Goodspeed Opera House in Connecticut in 1964. Rex Harrison was to be the original star of this production, but the musical demands of the role were heavy for him. After 21 previews, the musical opened at the ANTA Washington Square Theatre in Greenwich Village on November 22, 1965, then moved to Broadway at the Martin Beck Theatre on March 20, 1968, then to the Eden Theatre on March 3, 1971, and finally to the Mark Hellinger Theatre on May 26, 1971 for its last month, a total original New York run of 2,329 performances. Richard Kiley won a Tony Award for his performance as Cervantes/Quixote in the original production, and it made Kiley a bona fide Broadway star.[1] The original cast also included Irving Jacobson (Sancho), Ray Middleton (Innkeeper), Robert Rounseville (The Padre), and Joan Diener (Aldonza). John Cullum, José Ferrer, Hal Holbrook, and Lloyd Bridges also played the roles during the run of the production. The musical was performed on a single set that suggested a dungeon. All changes in location were created by alterations in the lighting, by the use of props supposedly lying around the floor of the dungeon, and by reliance on the audience's imagination. More recent productions, however, have added more scenery.

Performances February 15 – March 2, 2008. Price $18.
