This true crime program investigates unsolved murder cases by presenting the known facts and reviewing the available evidence, then turning to potential suspects, motives, and prominent theories with the central question of who was responsible.

Doors slam, cues go astray, lines vanish, and even a plate of sardines steals the spotlight as tempers flare and backstage romances tangle, sending everything into comic freefall. Act one tracks a calamitous final rehearsal, act two reveals the backstage bedlam during a performance, and by act three the show has unraveled onstage and off, piling on physical gags and rapid fire dialogue. The performance runs approximately 2 hours and 25 minutes with an intermission and contains mild adult themes.

Heard up close in a salon setting, these solos reveal both refinement and creative drive, linking Romantic traditions with the emergence of an American voice.

Usui-Tibetan Reiki Master: Shinpiden Workshop

Advance your Reiki practice in a master-level workshop within the Usui Tibetan lineage that is intended for practitioners who want to deepen their skills, whether or not they plan to teach. Tuition is $350. The training is held across two sessions, and attendance at both is required. Participants build a fuller understanding of Reiki energy, philosophy, and application, explore additional traditional and nontraditional symbols with related meditations and treatment methods, and receive an introduction to basic human anatomy to support their work. The curriculum includes advanced aura clearing techniques sometimes known as Reiki surgery, guidance on creating a personalized Reiki intention box for focused healing and manifestation, and practices that weave mindfulness into sessions and daily life. Students are encouraged to wait at least six months to a year after completing Level Two before enrolling to allow those teachings to settle in. Successful completion leads to Reiki Master certification. The workshop is led by Michael Ward, RMT, LMBT, founder of Kinetic Roots Wellness, a trauma-informed, queer-owned practice offering massage therapy, Reiki treatments, certification workshops, and continuing education for massage therapists. Michael brings more than a decade of experience in Reiki and meditation, with training in the Usui Tibetan and Usui Reiki traditions under Reiki Master Teachers Margo Ross Sears, David Sears, and Brett Bevell. As a licensed massage and bodywork therapist specializing in oncology and condition-specific massage, Michael integrates knowledge of the body, mind, and energy systems into teaching and fosters inclusive, healing-centered spaces for authentic exploration, integrity, and self-discovery.
