ASSASSINS @ The Spot
The SpotStart 2024 off with a bang! Grab tickets to our musical event of the season: ASSASSINS by Stephen Sondheim and John Weidman. January 25-February 4 @ The Spot. ASSASSINS Music and Lyrics by Stephen Sondheim Book by John Weidman Directed by Yanna Lantz Music Directed by R.L. Rowsey A multiple Tony Award-winning theatrical tour-de-force, Assassins combines Sondheim's signature blend of intelligently stunning lyrics and beautiful music with a panoramic story of our nation's culture of celebrity and the violent means some will use to obtain it, embodied by America's four successful and five would-be presidential assassins. Bold, original, disturbing and alarmingly funny, Assassins is perhaps the most controversial musical ever written. Assassins lays bare the lives of nine individuals who assassinated or tried to assassinate the President of the United States, in a one-act historical "revusical" that explores the dark side of the American experience. From John Wilkes Booth to Lee Harvey Oswald, writers, Stephen Sondheim and John Weidman, bend the rules of time and space, taking us on a nightmarish roller coaster ride in which assassins and would-be assassins from different historical periods meet, interact and inspire each other to harrowing acts in the name of the American Dream. ...
February Exhibitions at Gail Severn Gallery
Gail Severn GalleryJudith Kindler: Leaving Traces on Venice’s Storied Walls Judith Kindler transports viewers by reconfiguring visions of textured surfaces and graffitied walls of Venice, Italy, on to her own canvas. Through a mixed media process of layering original photography and painting, Kindler makes her mark on the city of which she draws so much inspiration. “When I go to Venice, I feel like it is home, familiar like, perhaps I lived there. Walking the streets and traveling in the canals in such a beautiful environment with the old architecture juxtaposed with the new art fills me with immense joy.” As a meditation on memory, Kindler initiates a dialog between her own iconography and the preexisting traces of history and time. Berkeley Hoerr: Ketchum in Color Ketchum, Idaho has long been a subject and source of inspiration for artists, authors, and poets. Painter, Berkeley Hoerr approaches the landscape from her own unique perspective with an emphasis on bright and bold color. Hoerr illustrates icons of a beloved ski town through charming depictions of favorited local spots, snap shots of winter activities, and creative views of Bald Mountain. Whether you are a long-time resident of the Wood River Valley or just visiting, you ...
