Los Lorcas: Poetry in Concert
Date: Friday. April 6
Time: 7:30pm to 9:30pm
Location:
ArtisTree Community Arts Center
Cost: FREE
In the spirit of Federico Garcia Lorca—gifted musician, legendary poet/playwright and ebullient performer—poets Partridge Boswell and Peter Money, along with guitarist Nat Williams, fuse poetry and music
in a passionate and surprising mash-up.
Los Lorcas blur boundaries between spoken word and song, weaving poetry with Andalusian ballads, blues, rock, folk, Americana and jazz in pursuit of the cante jondo (deep song) Lorca so ardently championed.
“Los Lorcas expresses a desire for everyone to realize how beautiful life, love, and loss can truly be,” raves one reviewer of their recent Burlington, Vermont show. “Music and literature are really one and the same, and their inspired conversation of the
two art forms is a breathtaking experience.” For any questions please contact

The Yoh Theatre Players of Woodstock Union High School have been accepted into the American High School Theatre Festival, to perform at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival (summer of 2018). The Edinburgh Fringe
Festival is the largest performance arts festival in the world, formed as an event to promote peace and unity in the world after World War II. Our students will do four performances of the show "Bakkhai" by Euripides, a new version by Anne Carson, and receive
training from a professional theatre technician who will work with us throughout the tour. The students will spend a few days in London, then on to Edinburgh for the festival, ten days filled with rehearsals, performances at official AHSTF/Fringe venues,
shows, workshops, an excursion to the picturesque seaside town of St. Andrews and historic Falkland Palace, the Royal Military Tattoo at Edinburgh Castle, and so much more. By the end of their stay, many students consider this beautiful, unique, and friendly
city a true ‘home away from home.’ Learn more. If you have any questions please contact
