REVolutions Dance Company
Friday, November 13, 7:30 pm
If you think people in wheelchairs must remain passive observers at a dance, think again! In a strikingly beautiful and unexpected synergy of dancers with and without disabilities, REVolutions Dance creates choreography maximizing the potential of movement and flow on both feet and wheels. The innovative combination is truly more impressive than either component on its own. Our view of dance as an art form expands with this unforgettable performance.

Black Violin
Friday, December 18, 7:30 pm
"Apollo Legends" Kev Marcus and Wil B, joined by DJ TK and a percussionist, create the ultimate musical synergy, moving from funky classical to jazz, rap, reggae and hip-hop. Classically trained musicians, their freestyle approach combines the bold and boisterous elements of hip-hop with the virtuosity and complex finger work of orchestral music, demonstrating just how much fun a violin and a viola can be.

Jared O'Roark
"Reverberated Voices"
Friday, January 15, 7:30 pm
Venture inside Jared's imagination as he explores the humor in universal emotions through poetry and monologues. See the travails of dating through the eyes of Spiderman's girlfriend, a man who "screens" all his dates, or one disappointed by women who want to be "friends." Weight loss, looks and other issues are examined as we find that, despite external differences, we all experience anger, humor, fear and love.

Dorothy Leeds
"Good Lessons from Bad Women"
Friday, March 12, 7:30 pm
Was Mae West the role model for Sex and the City? Did China's first female Emperor sleep her way to the top? What makes a well-bred woman a pillaging pirate? Was Mrs. Machine Gun Kelly a straight shooter or did she hype her husband into the "outlaw hall of shame"? Dorothy Leeds tells the stories we never hear and demonstrates that some good lurks in even the wickedest of women.

"Simply Show Tunes"
Friday, May 28, 7:30 pm
Melody's "Evening of Favorites" was a huge success in 2007, so we are bringing her back for an encore performance. This time Melody offers a sampling of the best of Broadway. Ms. Craven has performed throughout the Tampa Bay area for 28 years and toured with Eckerd Theater Company for ten seasons. Her personal warmth and unaffected nature, clear love of her art, and crystalline voice are an irresistible combination.
