Fiddler on the Roof at the Civic

I have a feeling they'll go fast, so be sure to get tickets now to see Fiddler on the Roof at the Kalamazoo Civic Theatre. Shows start Friday, September 25, and run through Saturday, October 10. It's your opportunity to see--and hear--Mary Teutsch in the role of Hodel. And, backstage, Mary's Gull Lake classmate Stacy Bartell will be wrangling props. You can call 269-343-1313 for tickets, or buy them online. Just don't wait too long!

Open Mic Night at RACC Sept. 12

On Saturday, September 12, from 7 to 10 p.m., the Richland Area Community Center, 9400 East CD Avenue, will host another great Open Mic Night. You're invited to come read your short story or poem, sing or play, or tell a story; reserve your time at the mic by calling RACC exec director Bonnie Feldkamp at 629-9430, or e-mail her at Bonnie@RichlandAreaCC.org . The rest of us can show up and enjoy the entertainment and a cup of Biggby's coffee. Sales of coffee will benefit RACC, and proceeds from the "tip" jars on each table will benefit the GLCS Performing Arts Foundation. Come on out for a really fun evening in a coffeehouse atmosphere!
