CHRISTINE LAVIN in Mandeville Hall
Saturday, April 5, 2008, 7:30 p.m. Tickets: $22 ($19.80 Members).
A very funny contemporary songwriter/performer, Christine Lavin has won numerous and prestigious awards, including five ASCAP Composer awards. Her songs are the sound tracks of American life and foible nailing a goodly number of the absurdities, reversals and neuroses that jam up our daily lives. With her liquid-silver voice and comic genius, Christine threads her wonderfully skewed songs into a smart and witty theatre-concert. From pre-show knitting circle to the final baton twirl, it’s an extraordinary live experience!

Keith breathes new life into these traditional music genres drawing on the greats like Blind Blake, Charlie Patton, and the mighty Leadbelly.
THE GREAT KAPLAN in Mandeville Hall
Saturday, April 26, 2008, 4 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. Tickets: $22 ($19.80 Members).
Juggling, illusion, music and hilarious deadpan comedy converge in this vaudevillian spectacle. Reminiscent of Buster Keaton, Peter Sellers and the great Jack Benny, Kaplan welcomes spectators, young and old, into a wonderfully strange world they will not soon forget. Whether he is juggling bean bag chairs, playing a melody on a balloon, or levitating a bowling ball, Kaplan’s preposterous blend of dazzling skill and shameless gimmickry is sure to amaze and amuse.

Chances are if you are a guy who makes it to the pearly gates, your first question to Saint Peter will be “What do women really want?” Is it that men are so stupid and insensitive that they can’t figure out what women want, or do women play by a set of unwritten rules that keep changing as the mood suits them? According to actor/playwright Robert Dubac, the answer to both questions is yes! His hit one-man show is a multi-character comedy – he seamlessly transforms himself into five alter egos each offering their own brand of misguided advice while straddling the gender gap.
