GREASE The
Musical
This is the
1950's rock 'n' roll musical. Rydell High's
spirited class of '59; gum chewing, hubcap
stealing, hot rod loving boys with D.A.'s and
their wise cracking girls in bobby sox and pedal
pushers---capture the look and sound of the 1950s
in a rollicking musical. While hip Danny Zuko and
wholesome Sandy Dumbrowski resolve the problems of
their mutual attraction, the gang sings and dances
its way through such nostalgic scenes as the
pajama party, the prom, the burger palace, and the
drive in movie. Songs recall the Buddy Holly
hiccups, the Little Richard yodels and the Elvis
Presley wiggles that made the music of the 50s a
gas. Grease's eight year run made Broadway history
and its recent long running revival put it among
today's most popular musicals.

George
Carlin
One of the
most influential comedians of the past
half-century, and more than any other comedian
since Lenny Bruce, Carlin has broken taboos,
pushed back the forces of censorship, shattered
common assumptions about what stand-up was
“supposed to be”, and found countless funny ways
to look at and skewer the absurdities of the human
experience. If none of this rings enough bells to
have you racing to get tickets... you need to read
on To date, George Carlin's 13 HBO specials have
garnered three Emmy nominations and won six
CableACE awards, and thus far eight of those HBO
shows have been released in two separate DVD
packages. Carlin picked up two additional Emmy
nominations in the early ‘90's, playing the part
of Mister Conductor in 45 episodes of the
critically acclaimed PBS children's show, “Shining
Time Station.” In 1997, Carlin ventured into a new
field as Hyperion published his first book,
Braindroppings, a collection of original routines,
one-liners, commentaries and essays. In hard cover
and paperback, the book spent a total of 40 weeks
on The New York Times Best-Seller list and has
sold 850,000 copies. The “book-on-tape” version,
read by Carlin himself, won the 2001 Grammy in the
Best Spoken Comedy category, the latest of his
three Grammys. A second book, Napalm & Silly
Putty, written in the same style as the first, was
published in April 2001, reaching the Number One
spot on the New York Times Best-Seller list in its
second week. The combined hardback and paperback
editions have sold over 500,000 copies and a third
book, When Will Jesus Bring the Pork Chops?,
followed. This one went to Number 2 on the New
York Times Best-Seller list as well as being
banned by Wal-Mart. When Will Jesus Bring the Pork
Chops? and George were both nominated for two
Quill Awards. Meanwhile Carlin has leant his
acting and vocal talents to numerous movies and
animated features including Kevin Smith's Jersey
Girl, Tarzan II, The Wild Life, and Happily N'Ever
After and most recently, Cars where George was the
voice of "Fillmore" the hippie van. And somehow he
still manages to make time for more than 90 live
appearances a year!

The Wonderful Story Of Mother
Goose
This
delightful tale is of poor widowed Mother Goose
who is in search for fortune, beauty and fame. The
fun-packed action centres on the wicked Squire
Clarence, his Bailiffs, Sage and Onion and
Priscilla, the Magical Goose. Fairy Harmony
succeeds in helping good overcome evil as the
wicked Fairy Discord attempts to prove that all
mortals are greedy, selfish and vain and uses
Mother Goose as her example. Recommended for
adults and children of all ages

Thursday Night Studio Series Presents
... HARRY MANX
Harry
Manx is beyond a doubt one of the most original
Folk-World-Blues performers touring today. Born in
the U.K. and now residing in Canada, Manx performs
lap slide guitar, blues harp, the six-stringed
banjo, and most uniquely the Mohan Veena, a
guitar/sitar hybrid created and named by Indian
musical guru Vishwa Mohan Bhatt. Harry has lived
and toured for years throughout Europe, Japan and
India. In 1990, while in Japan, he discovered a
recording of the Indian slide guitarist, V.M.
Bhatt. It proved to be an epiphany that soon drew
Harry to India to become a student of Bhatt's who
later won a Grammy Award for his work with Ry
Cooder in 1994. Manx remained with V.M. Bhatt for
five years in a quest to master the sonic
intricacies and beauty inherent in the Mohan
Veena. Harry's music has been called an "essential
link" between the music of East and West. His
songs are short stories that draw from the essence
of the blues and the depth of Indian polytonal
ragas. It's more than evident on Harry's
critically acclaimed recordings, including his new
CD "West Eats Meet." Harry's shows are intimate
and magical. Audiences inevitably become
enraptured in the diversity of his performances,
listening intently while he performs original
songs as well as unique takes on classic blues
numbers and the odd pop song like Crazy Love by
Van Morrison performed on the Mohan Veena. A wry
sense of humor and worldly stories enhance Harry
Manx's live performances that continue to build
audiences exponentially.
