Phil Connors is a cynical Pittsburgh TV weatherman sent to cover the annual Groundhog Day event in the small town of Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania. Caught in a time loop, he's forced to relive the same day again and again...and again. As he gets to know associate TV producer Rita Hanson for the first time repeatedly, he realizes it's an opportunity for second, third, and fourth chances in this fun musical based on the hit movie.

Sleeping Beauty is one of the most beautiful and spectacular ballets of the 19th century. This is a story about the world of childhood, about the desire for love and understanding between parents and children. Despite the simple plot, the basis of which is taken from a fairy tale by Charles Perrault, the ballet impresses with the depth of images. Its creator, the legendary ballet master Marius Petipa, gave volume and meaning to each character, each scene. Moreover, Tchaikovsky's ballet music revived classical dance to a new life, to new artistic and emotional peaks. The history of ballet's life on world stages shows the constant interest of choreographers, performers and audiences in it.
This timeless tale of love and magic will be brought to life by the finest dancers of the Grand Kyiv Ballet. The graceful movements of the world's best dancers will give you unforgettable emotions.
You will see this level of skill for the first time!
And wonderful scenery, elegant costumes and skillfully installed light will give you unforgettable emotions and transport you to the world of enchantment and wonder.
Buy tickets in your city to be amazed!

Italy meets Wisconsin, classical meets jazz, exploring songwriting as a couple.

When Italian Sara d'Ippolito met American Kenny Reichert in Milwaukee, WI, they immediately realized they shared more than their love of music. After falling in love, the now married couple started writing songs together. Based in Chicago, Sara and Kenny are composers, educators and multi-instrumentalists. Their music is a unique blend of intricate harmonies, jazz, folk, classical, electronic and world music. Sara and Kenny both play guitar and sing, but in a way you have never heard before.

The next Philville Records presents is upon us!

More on the Lineup:
Colleen (Boss Mama) Myhre has soul, and she pours it into every note. - Tony Peterson - Social Animals.

Part Lucinda Williams and part Charlie Parr, Colleen Myhre's gritty songwriting is as rawhide tough as it is genuine. On stage, her rustic personality can entertain both a honky tonk's hard boiled regulars and tranquil coffee house crowds alike. - Duluth News Tribune

Kenny Hotopp & the Night Owls:

Often, the best singer songwriters tend to have experienced peripatetic lives--wandering by circumstance or choice. This rambling and sometimes chaotic lifestyle can foster a desire to observe, to listen, and to attempt to comprehend experiences through other people's perspective--and paradoxically , often can create an equally strong desire to establish roots--and to be of a place--not just from a place.

​Kenny Hotopp is a damn near perfect example of this premise.

Hotopp was raised in a small farming town in Illinois, with an early passion for music evident as he immersed himself in his parents' early rock & roll and country records, and fell in love with the roots of the country & rock & roll legends.

An outstanding athlete from an early age, Kenny's love of music was often competing for attention thanks to an basketball career that took him from high school through college in Los Angeles and then propelled him into a multi-year career playing in the European Basketball league.

Having spent much of his youth traveling for sports, and redefining himself in various locations around the world--Hotopp gained a perspective that transcended his Illinois youth--but also compelled him to return to a place that he was inescapably of--not just from.

​Ultimately settling down outside Milwaukee, WI., Kenny's mid-western upbringing resonates with emotion through his own unique world traveled perspective on fatherhood, marriage, family, meeting the love of his life and searching for an inner balance that many who wander often struggle to find.

Bob Sumner (Courtesy of Fluff & Gravy Records):

Guitar. Vocals. Stacked vocals. Lead Guitar. Female Harmonies. Fiddle. Harmonica. Pedal Steel. Piano. Organ. Synths. Drums and bass holding it down. Listening to the new Bob Sumner album, 'Someplace To Rest Easy,' I find myself playing that favorite game--what is inside this sound so atmospheric? The textures lay like a finely loomed rug; the single fibers are no longer seeable; they are but part of a larger picture. It's a masterclass in mixing and a studio wunderkind of an album, free from genre or easy description beyond the kaleidoscope of Sumner's life of love and loss, of bottles and bibles, of hard living and soft songwriting. This is a preacher's yarn, after that preacher done thrown it all away but the love, and is free to share the wisdom. -- Adam Spangler, Saddle Mountain Post

What may often be bleak themes are handled delicately and tellingly in the songwriting of Vancouver-born artist Bob Sumner. His 2019 album WASTED LOVE SONGS and SOME PLACE TO REST EASY, which will be released this week, delve into troubled relationships and alcohol abuse by an artist unafraid to lay bare his vulnerabilities. If the former record could be filed under singer-songwriter/ Americana, the latter is more 'country' influenced, blending the classic Countrypolitan sound of the 60s alongside some more modern country. Signed to the Fluff & Gravy label, SOME PLACE TO REST EASY should herald a well-deserved industry breakthrough for Sumner. We spoke with him recently as he prepared to bring the new album on the road with shows that include three appearances at AmericanaFest in Nashville later this month. -- Lonesome Highway, September 2024

Artwork reception including works by
Terry Meyer, Aubrey Hogan, Scott Von Holzen, Jeff Nelson, & Karen Scarseth.

Their focus is the promotion of multi-dimensional mixed-media wall art and pedestal sculptures to galleries and regional art centers.

The group's hook is to engage the viewer's interest beyond the surface paint. They do this through innovative ideas found in the multiple layers of our artworks. This thinking leads to surprising a-ha moments. Viewer's curiosity is revealed in our shapes, usage of materials, handling of color, and effects such as shadowing and sound.

EmptyWallsArt offers a versatile contrasting display of three-dimensional art styles that by reaching out to the viewer, leaves the wall behind.

You are walking your dog in peace. It's a lovely day and you are enjoying this moment. And then....an off leash dog from a yard two blocks away comes running up to you. What do you do? Preventing ambushes by unwanted dogs is something that many of us need to learn.

Come and learn strategies and tips to practice BEFORE this happens to you and your dog. It's important to practice these strategies before implementing them in the real world so you and your dog can react as a team to diffuse and also escape this scenario. If your dog is not comfortable in a group setting, please come to audit this course and take the information home to work on. You will all find value in learning how to have strategies to put into place so everyone is prepared.
