Calendar Events for July 29, 2010
When: Thursday, July 29
Where: Highlands Playhouse
What: The Andrews Brothers
Showing through Sunday, August 8 Andrews Brothers opens at an afternoon rehearsal for a USO show in the South Pacific. Max, Lawrence and Patrick Andrews are rehearsing with pin-up girl Peggy Jones for the big show that night. What Peggy doesn’t know is that the brothers are really just the stagehands for the show – her back-up singers didn’t arrive in time, and the boys were recruited by the Major in charge to fill in where needed. Just as they assume all will work out well, a radiogram arrives with the news that the headliners for tonight’s show, The Andrews Sisters, have been held in quarantine in Hawaii. The show must be cancelled. Unless, of course, there’s a way for the Andrews Sisters to appear...Mistaken identities and madcap adventures (imagine Bing Crosby & Bob Hope in a road movie of 'Some Like It Hot’) along with the music of an entire generation highlight this wonderful valentine to the heroes of World War II.

What: CLE:THE INTERSECTION OF CREED AND CULTURE
Whether Hindu or Muslim, Christian or Jew, our faith content is expressed in scripture, creeds, hymns and prayers, which take on the quality of being “a given.” As one Christian hymn says “as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be.” This course will invite you to become aware of how cultural contexts can affect us all. We shall consider how we have been influenced by external events, such as where we were born, family circumstances, education or important people. Be prepared to explore, share, be surprised and even be uncomfortable as you trace your faith journey, whatever its creed and destination. Instructor: Dr. Martha Porter Facilitator: Sandra Mackey Time: 10:00 - 12:00 Cost: $20 members $30 non-members Limit: 40
