Is it possible to experience a radio "sighting"? "Hearing" just sounds wrong. But I did happen to hear our own Robin Nott on local radio station WMUK during its current fund drive. He spoke most eloquently--as he does--about the great value of storytelling in our lives. WMUK (102.1 FM) is trying to shorten its fund drive this year, but you may still have a chance to hear that nice piece from Robin again--and, of course, to support public radio as well.
And it finally feels a little like fall, which means that Halloween is on its way. Take special note of these two Halloween-related events:
Sorry, kids. NOT for children, in spite of the characters featured: The Great Pumpkin Massacre is the upcoming late-night offering at the Whole Art Theatre Studio Space. Charlie Brown and co. encounter a Great Pumpkin who proves to be a serial killer in this dark parody of the Peanuts specials. And, let's see . . . Who should play the Great Pumpkin? Gull Lake's Adam Carter, of course, now a member of the comedy improv group Crawlspace Eviction and frequent star of area stages. Adults should not miss this black comedy at Whole Art Theatre Studio Space, 246 N. Kalamazoo Mall, 11 p.m. Friday and Saturday, October 19 and 20, and October 26 and 27. Your $5 ticket also gets you free coffee and doughnuts, apparently.
Children should instead go to the Richland Area Business Association's Halloween in the Park, 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. on Wednesday, October 31--yes, Halloween itself--on the Village Green in Richland. It's a safe place to go trick-or-treating, and it's FOR children!
