Having always been a Shakespeare fan, Im excited to see Trinity Rep put on Twelfth Night, coming up this month. “Shakespeare’s topsy-turvy tale of love and laughter. Shipwrecked, orphaned, separated from her twin brother, disguised as a man in a hostile country – when Viola thinks things can’t get worse, she falls for her new boss, the Duke.” Directed by Brian McEleney. In the Chace Theater.
January 29 – March 07

I think Perishable Theater has a got a great thing going, with their after work class series “Rush Hour”. Instead of running out the door of the office just to hurry up and sit in traffic, you can join a class or two during the week, learn a new style of dance, let off some steam and burn a few calories! The classes range from belly dancing, to modern dance and ballet, to “Soca-Robics”, which incorporates Caribbean style music with high-energy aerobic steps and traditional West African movements: yielding a full body workout! It’s $13 to drop in, or $60 for a six class punch card. It won’t expire, and can be used for any class in the series. Rush Hour classes are held Tuesdays and Fridays at 5:30pm, Wednesdays at 6:00pm, and there are two morning classes held on Sunday as well. Visit their website for more schedule details and class descriptions. Beat the traffic! Get your dance on!
