"SORRY! WRONG CHIMNEY!"
OPENS MAHONEY WINTER SEASON
Pictured: Front, Doug Rothgeb and Marikita Saure. Back, Melinda Mead, Kevin Holdorf, Ken Patry and Shari Hoelker.
KBC Productions announces the start of the 2012-2013 season at Mahoney State Park with "Sorry! Wrong Chimney!" The show opens on Saturday, November 24 at 7:30pm.
"Chimney," is the lighthearted Christmas tale full of mistaken identities and a little slapstick comedy. David is secretly moonlighting as a department store Santa so that he can buy his wife a new fur for Christmas. She gets suspicious of his frequent absences and stumbles upon a suspected "other woman," a confused policeman and a notorious Christmas burglar.
Directed by Kevin Colbert, the cast includes Doug Rothgeb, Ken Patry and Shari Hoelker all of Omaha; Marikita Saure and Cory Misek of Lincoln, Melinda Mead of Plattsmouth and Kevin Holdorf of Manley. Performances run Nov 24, 25 & 30, Dec 1, 2, 7-9, 14-16, 21-23 & 26-29. Curtain times are 7:30pm on each date except for Sundays which are 2pm matinees.
Tickets are $10 for adults and $8 for children 12 and under. Reservations can be made by calling Mahoney State Park at 402.944.2523 ext 7122. Those with a show ticket can receive 10% off their entree at Mahoney Grille located at the Peter Kiewit Lodge inside the park.
SCHOOLHOUSE IRISH FIDDLING CAMP
The Old Avoca Schoolhouse in Avoca, Nebraska will be hosting a special "Schoolhouse Irish Fiddling Camp", for fiddlers, violists, guitarists, and ukulele players. The sessions will be led by championship fiddler and author, Deborah Greenblatt.
The camp will be on Wednesday, March 13 - Friday, March 15, from 9 AM to 1 PM. You can sign up for 1 day, or 2 days, or all 3 days.
On Wednesday, participants will be mostly reading tunes, using sheet music in standard notation. We'll be learning melodies, harmonies, and chords. You will be improving your sight reading, and experiencing fiddling fun.
On Thursday, we will be mostly playing tunes by ear, so feel free to bring your recording gadgets. Sheet music versions of the tunes will be provided for you by the end of camp, just in case your ears need the help.
On Friday, we will be mostly jamming, modulating, singing, dancing, experimenting, sharing, and playing fiddle related instruments.
One day: $60.00
Two days: $110.00 ($55 per day)
Three days: $150.00 fee for 3 days. ($50 per day)
