Bach at Leipzig
Bach at Leipzig
by Itamar Moses

Previews may 15 & 16
Leipzig, 1722. Germany’s most renowned music director is dead at the keyboard. As the country’s greatest organists descend to vie for the job, melodies of rivalry, trickery and blackmail compose a fugue of plots and counterplots. Rooted in history but reveling in flights of fiction, Bach at Leipzig is deliciously scored with wild and witty revelations.

Bach at Leipzig
by Itamar Moses
May 17 – June 15
Previews may 15 & 16
Leipzig, 1722. Germany’s most renowned music director is dead at the keyboard. As the country’s greatest organists descend to vie for the job, melodies of rivalry, trickery and blackmail compose a fugue of plots and counterplots. Rooted in history but reveling in flights of fiction, Bach at Leipzig is deliciously scored with wild and witty revelations.

Annual Fund raiser benefiting Valley Center Stage’s upcoming season with some proceeds going to Boxley’s Music Fund. The fundraiser includes a silent auction, dinner, an interactive murder mystery featuring Valley Center Stage performers and Danny Kolke.
Valley Center Stage and Boxley’s invites you to an evening of dastardly deeds and comic crime as they present “Win, Loose or Die.” This is an audience participation show where you actually help solve the murder. Lyrical Pursuit, the popular game show where knowledge of song lyrics could lead to fame and riches, has come to your town. Host Sparky Duke (Peter Cook) invites audience members to challenge the current Lyric King, Furlong Shemp (Craig Ewing). But before the show is over, someone winds up very dead. And someone winds up very responsible. Who could it be? Could it be Sparky’s glamorous assistant, Daisy (Rochelle Wyatt)? Or the disgruntled ex-champ (René Schuchter)? Or is there something about the sponsor (Becky Rappin) that doesn’t quite ring true?…

Bach at Leipzig
Bach at Leipzig
by Itamar Moses
May 17 – June 15
Previews may 15 & 16
Leipzig, 1722. Germany’s most renowned music director is dead at the keyboard. As the country’s greatest organists descend to vie for the job, melodies of rivalry, trickery and blackmail compose a fugue of plots and counterplots. Rooted in history but reveling in flights of fiction, Bach at Leipzig is deliciously scored with wild and witty revelations.

Simpatico by Sam Shepard
Pre-Show Dinner: 5:30-7:30pm at Black Dog Arts Cafe. Call 425.831.3647 for dinner reservations. Price of dinner not included in the price of show tickets. Cuisine: Mexican May with authentic dishes (tacos, asadas, specials) from the mountain regions of Michoacan.
Show: Sam Shepard’s, tragic-comedy, Simpatico, based in the underworld of thoroughbred horseracing, is Shepard at his intense best. When Carter (James Holmes-Pohle), a successful horse breeder, gets a desperate call from his former partner in crime, Vinnie (Greg Balmer) a Pandora’s Box of deception and lies ensues. A drama of relationship, identity, loyalty, loss and restitution, Shepard takes us down a spiral path of humanity at its most desperate; his language an intense roller coaster ride.

The play directed by Susan Bradford of Issaquah, WA. A Theatre Black Dog production.

Bach at Leipzig
Bach at Leipzig
by Itamar Moses
May 17 – June 15
Previews may 15 & 16
Leipzig, 1722. Germany’s most renowned music director is dead at the keyboard. As the country’s greatest organists descend to vie for the job, melodies of rivalry, trickery and blackmail compose a fugue of plots and counterplots. Rooted in history but reveling in flights of fiction, Bach at Leipzig is deliciously scored with wild and witty revelations.

Bach at Leipzig
Bach at Leipzig
by Itamar Moses
May 17 – June 15
Previews may 15 & 16
Leipzig, 1722. Germany’s most renowned music director is dead at the keyboard. As the country’s greatest organists descend to vie for the job, melodies of rivalry, trickery and blackmail compose a fugue of plots and counterplots. Rooted in history but reveling in flights of fiction, Bach at Leipzig is deliciously scored with wild and witty revelations.

Children need their care-givers’ support to navigate the full range of their feelings. Contrary to popular culture, looking for our children’s buy-in using a negotiating approach is not only draining and exhausting for care-givers, it’s also not what our children need developmentally. Despite the discomfort—theirs and ours—our children need to feel sadness and disappointment to build resiliency and to mature.
In this presentation, Cindy will discuss how to become the parents that our children need. She’ll talk about how to simultaneously be an agent of futility, setting boundaries and saying “no,” and an angel of comfort, offering compassion for their upset feelings.
In this presentation you will discover:
* Find out how to reclaim your dignity and power to parent.
* Understand the critical role sadness and tears play in your child’s development.
* Learn how to help your child accept no for an answer.

All About Berries
The Northwest is the perfect place to grow berries. Strawberries, blueberries and raspberries all thrive here. If you’ve ever tried to clear a wild lot you know blackberries are right at home here also. There are many cultivars of this fruit we love and hate, some even grow large fruit without thorns. All of these berries with the exception of raspberries are very easy to grow. Raspberries take more care especially in selecting a planting site. This workshop will give you all the information you need to grow great berries.

Bach at Leipzig
Bach at Leipzig
by Itamar Moses
May 17 – June 15
Previews may 15 & 16
Leipzig, 1722. Germany’s most renowned music director is dead at the keyboard. As the country’s greatest organists descend to vie for the job, melodies of rivalry, trickery and blackmail compose a fugue of plots and counterplots. Rooted in history but reveling in flights of fiction, Bach at Leipzig is deliciously scored with wild and witty revelations.

Bach at Leipzig
Bach at Leipzig
by Itamar Moses
May 17 – June 15
Previews may 15 & 16
Leipzig, 1722. Germany’s most renowned music director is dead at the keyboard. As the country’s greatest organists descend to vie for the job, melodies of rivalry, trickery and blackmail compose a fugue of plots and counterplots. Rooted in history but reveling in flights of fiction, Bach at Leipzig is deliciously scored with wild and witty revelations.
