GALA Reception- Friday, March 23 from 6:30-7:30pm
Phil Wiggins is a versatile traditional harmonica player, continuing the Piedmont blues tradition, a gentle and melodic blues style of the mid-Atlantic region. He plays the diatonic ten-hole harmonica in the country blues style, cupping both hands around the instrument and playing acoustically. His sound is not shaped by the gear, the microphone or amplifier when performing on stage; instead, he relies on complex syncopated patterns, breath-control and rhythm, stylistic virtuosity and fiery solo runs.

THE WINTER’S TALE
By William Shakespeare
Directed by Isabelle Anderson
A jealous king, a lost princess, a comic and generous old shepherd, and a wondrous statue unite in a compelling fable of obsession, redemption, and rebirth. This beguiling and magical story follows the travails and triumphs of a royal family torn apart by a false accusation of infidelity. A faraway springtime yields fresh chances for each to find love and joy.
This production blends the titillating tropes of the striptease artform with the exciting danger of cirque arts. The final product is a fun-filled evening of tongue-in-cheek humor, impressive aerial performances, and playfully bawdy behavior." - David Clarke, Out.com
