Today is Hump Day and you are probably thinking about what to do this weekend. Here's a suggestion for you. Attend the 4th annual presentation of the South Bay Stories Show. I'd never heard of it (no surprise there many of you mutter) until founder Jim Mueller joined the South Bay Writers Workshop and mentioned it. It was a tasteful hint - a shower of vividly colored postcards and the touching way he got down on his knees and begged us to come. None of us can resist a grown man's sobs, so we paid attention as he enlightened us as to what it is and writer Maureen did 20 minutes on stage fright and her pending appearance in this very production.
A select group of writers, singers perform on stage for a discerning audience at the Hermosa Beach Community Center - Pier and PCH. The show schedule is:
Saturday, March 24th at 7:30 p.m.
Sunday, March 25th at 1:30 p.m.
Sunday, March 25th at 4:30 p.m.
Tickets are $20 at the door - the Website is southbaystoriesshow.com
Here is the line-up and their subjects:
Wanda Maureen Miller - "The Miracle" growing up in rural Arkansas
David Cook - "Ben and Me" friendship of Vietnam vet buddies
Shanti Friend - "My Awakening" finding her life's passion
Scott Fellows - "Aspen - A Tale of Two Cities" life in Aspen then and now
Jane Porter - "Mama" and "Dragonflies" two original songs about life on a farm
Kyle Cohen - "Welcome to LA" moving to LA and lookin' for love
Mike Shields II - "The Day the Music Died" growing up with his father
Avra Diamond - "My On-going Battle with Big Brother" trying to get her Global Entry Pass
It is a great showcase for a variety of writing styles and subjects. Post-event you may even feel a little itch to write yourself. Take a gander at the southbaywritersworkshop.com - we welcome all comers. Think about it during the show - the South Bay Stories Show.
