ART<br />

How much would you pay for a white<br />

painting? Would it matter who the painter<br />

was? Would it be art? One of Marc’s<br />

best friends, Serge, has just bought a very<br />

expensive painting. To Marc, the painting<br />

is a joke, but Serge insists Marc doesn’t<br />

have the proper standard to judge the<br />

work. Another friend, Ivan, allows himself<br />

to be pulled into this disagreement, which<br />

escalates to often hilarious proportions.<br />

THE MAGIC FLUTE<br />

Mozart’s Magic Flute was an instant hit<br />

at its premiere in 1791 and its popularity<br />

and success has kept it on opera stages<br />

throughout the world with growing love<br />

ever since. The opera tells the story of<br />

Prince Tamino’s quest to rescue Pamina,<br />

the daughter of the Queen, from the<br />

high priest, Sarastro. A powerful magic<br />

flute and bells help Prince Tamino and<br />

his friend Papageno the bird catcher<br />

survive the trials of fire and water while<br />

learning about brotherhood and justice.<br />

This is Mozart at his comic best—rife<br />

with an outpouring of famous melodies<br />

cascading one after the other, packaged<br />

in an irresistible opera perfect for both<br />

opera aficionados and families of all ages.<br />

DANNY COME HOME<br />

Enjoy an original musical written<br />

by Michael Kaplan and Mark Pietri,<br />

inspired by San Luis Obispo headlines<br />

from 8 years ago (Annie the Dog). It<br />

is a homegrown Central Coast story<br />

that playfully investigates the way the<br />

animals we adopt help us awaken as<br />

human beings. This event is part of the<br />

<strong>2018</strong> Coastal Awakening.<br />
