Upcoming Events
The Golden Age of Christmas
The trio is back! Join soprano Kara Grover, baritone Lloyd Reshard, and pianist Lois Henry on Friday, December 11, as they return to the Acoustic Café series! Celebrate the sounds of Christmas with breathtaking vocals and brilliant piano artistry. From the timeless beauty of Bach to the holiday favorites of Irving Berlin, these world-class musicians bring beloved Christmas melodies to life in an evening filled with nostalgia, warmth, and holiday cheer!
This is not an evening of sweet love stories where people find their soulmates. This is not an evening full of warm hearts, longing looks, and true love conquering all. No. This is an evening of unexpected turns, questionable choices, and impractical promises.
Join Master Storyteller Donna Washington for an evening of sometimes hilarious, often ridiculous, occasionally scary, but definitely unexpected stories about love being dragged into a back alley and robbed blind!
From a man made of porcelain to a woman made of ice, love gives it everything it has, but, despite its best efforts, it often goes sideways!
Relationships Gone Sideways!
