Community Speaker Series: “Solito” with Javier Zamora

The Community Library

In 1999, a nine-year-old boy left his tiny village in El Salvador to join his parents who had emigrated to America some years before. His astonishing nine-week, 3,000-mile journey, without friends or family, is the heart of JAVIER ZAMORA’s riveting memoir.  Zamora writes in the pitch-perfect voice of that child as he makes his perilous way, on foot and by boat and bus and truck, recalling moments of true terror and of unexpected tenderness. In conversation with executive director of The Community Library JENNY EMERY DAVIDSON, Zamora will speak about the book, about how he was finally able to write it, about trauma and healing and hope, and about becoming the celebrated poet and writer that he is. Presented in partnership with the Sun Valley Writers’ Conference, the Community Speaker Series welcomes speakers from the annual conference to The Community Library for a free community event.

Desdemona: A Play about a Handkerchief

The Mint

Desdemona: A Play about a Handkerchief Presented by THE LIBERTY THEATRE COMPANY July 7-22 at The Mint in Hailey Written by Paula Vogel Directed by Veronica Moonhill Starring Audra Honaker, Tess Makena, and Aly Wepplo Tickets at LibertyTheatreCompany.org This rowdy, hysterical, feminist update on Othello is written by Paula Vogel, Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright of How I Learned to Drive, and serves as the perfect addition to summer fun in Hailey. As the wrongly accused and suffering wife of Shakespeare's tragic Moor, Othello, Desdemona has long been viewed as the "victim of circumstance." But as Paula Vogel demonstrates in her comic deconstruction of Shakespeare's play - aligning tongue-in-cheek humor while raising serious questions as to the role of women through the ages - Desdemona was far from the quivering naif we've all come to know. PERFORMANCES: July 7th - 8th at 7pm July 9th at 2pm and 7pm July 13th - 15th at 7pm July 16th at 2pm July 19th - 21st at 7pm July 22nd at 2pm TICKET PRICE: $30 General Admission $15 Student Fort tickets and season passes, call 208-582-8388, or visit LibertyTheatreCompany.org
