Broad St.). Helena can heal an ailing king, outwit any man, travel across countries, and defy death itself. But she can’t make Bertram love her. In this rarelyproduced late play of William Shakespeare, the comedy seems bittersweet, and the laughter melancholic. In love, and in life, there are no truly happy endings.

The ensemble cast of familiar faces and new talent also includes Monroe Barrick, Damon Bonetti, Akeem Davis, Joel Guerrero, Donovan Lockett, John Lopes, Brian McCann, Laural Merlington, Kirsten Quinn, Melanie Stefan-Watts.

EVEN MORE EVENTS First-Friday Film See free first-Friday film “Where Do We Go Now?” at the Peace Center of Delaware County, December 2, at 7 p.m. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. “Where Do We Go Now?” is a drama/comedy about Muslim and Christian women living together in an isolated Lebanese village who conspire together to keep their blowhard menfolk from being caught up in the region's surrounding violence. Peppered throughout with earthy, village humor and quirky, human situations, “Where Do We Go Now?” delivers its antiwar message with a knowing smile, leaving you with a sense of the wry foolishness and tragedy of war. “Where Do We Go Now?” was a huge success in the Middle East, winning multiple awards on the world stage. But in the United States, it barely caused a ripple of interest. Don’t miss this chance to see a gem of a film about faith, hope, and love. In Arabic, with English subtitles. “Where Do We Go Now?,” 2011. 110 min. Rated PG-13 for thematic drug material, some sensuality, violent images. Director: Nadine Labaki.

“J EWISH I NDIANA J ONES ” TO W EIGH IN ON UNESCO T EMPLE M OUNT C ONTROVERSY NESCO’s resolution regarding the Temple Mount has sparked a furor of indignation from individuals and groups who were horrified to discover that the Jewish People’s millennia-long connection to the site was largely ignored by the international group.

Chabad of Penn Wynne and the Kaiserman JCC invite the public to a definitive presentation by archeologist and scholar, Rabbi Avrohom Stolik. Hailed as “the Jewish Indiana Jones,” Stolik provides a well researched and thoroughly engaging exhibition of the historical evidence of the Jewish People’s continuous connection to the city that dates back at least to the days of David and Solomon.

“In recent years, archaeological discoveries in the ancient city of Jerusalem and throughout the Land of Israel have uncovered key findings that present a powerful and convincing case for the biblical narrative and for the Jewish claim to

Israel,” said Rabbi Moshe Brennan, director of Chabad of Penn Wynne.

Stolik has received wide acclaim as a biblical archaeological scholar. In the presentation, he will share his extensive knowledge of Jewish history, biblical analysis and his passion for archaeology. The unique presentation will include imagery, diagrams and videos that can benefit anyone, whether he or she has been to Israel before or has any background in history or archaeology.

“This is a unique opportunity for people to learn facts on the ground—and underground.”

Stolik will present at the Kaiserman JCC 45 Haverford Road, Wynnewood, PA 19096 on Monday, December 5, at 7:30 p.m.

Lansdowne resident and Philadelphia Orchestra Associate Flute David Cramer, performs two beautiful selections: Howard Hanson’s “Serenade for Harp, Flute and Strings,” and Kent Kennan’s “Night Soliloquy.”

Evoking Northern climes, the orchestra plays from the “Karelia Suite of Sibelius,” and Johann Strauss’ “Fledermaus Overture” is a celebratory romp of a New Year’s party. Also in a celebratory vein, the orchestra continues its American Romantics recording project in collaboration with the Free Library’s Fleisher Orchestra, with Festival Procession by ‘lightly-Wagnerian’ Swiss-American composer Ludwig Bonvin, and also “At Sunset” by the mostly Wisconsin-based Cecil Burleigh.

Playing Leroy Anderson’s “Sleigh Ride,” the orchestra initiates its first-ever guest conductor silent auction. The winner will conduct “Sleigh Ride” in the orchestra’s 2017 holiday concert. The winner will receive a conducting lesson with Reuben Blundell.

Ending with the “Hallelujah Chorus” from Handel’s “Messiah,” there’s truly something for everyone in this ever-popular seasonal concert.

Audiences will be taken back to a simpler time when what was important during the holiday season wasn’t shopping and receiving gifts, but rather, spending time with family and friends.

dents and visitors. Additionally, there will be an artist’s reception on Monday, December 19 at 6:30 p.m. Refreshments will be served.

Susan Stefanski studied art at Villanova University and local art centers since 1999.

Painting is spiritual and serene and promotes a feeling of contentment and joy to be shared with others. When asked to describe her art, Susan said, “Painting has made me see the world differently paying attention to shadows and colors like never before. I am more aware of my surroundings and most drawn to painting outside. Fields, streams, flowers in the landscape, and shorelines call me to take brush and knife to canvas capturing light, air, and space. I get lost in the cool and warm colors, the soft and hard edges of my representational, slightly impressionistic work. I hope to convey to the viewer feelings of peace, contentment and serenity.”

“The idea of exhibiting “Blessings” was so appealing to us,” said Linda Sterthous, Executive Director of Wesley Enhanced Living Main Line. “Given the upcoming holiday season, it seems appropriate to show appreciation for the beauty that surrounds us.”

The Artist Spotlight Series remains a popular community benefit since its introduction in 2012. It was originally created to enable Wesley Enhanced Living Main Line residents to experience art right in their own community. The program has since grown into a robust and highly anticipated community event each month.

To reserve a seat at the reception on December 19, or for information on Wesley Enhanced Living Main Line’s Artist Spotlight Series, contact program coordinator, Amy Blum at 610-353-7660 ext. 254 or email ablum@wel.org.

Opera Company Presents Seasonal Classic “Amahl and the Night Visitors” Performances in Manayunk and Media he Delaware Valley Opera Company presents “Amahl and the Night Visitors,” Gian Carlo Menotti’s family-friendly holiday opera twice this Christmas season at two different venues, once in anticipation of Christmas, and once in honor of Three Kings Day! This holiday classic has been charming audiences since 1951.

The opera’s story is Menotti’s notion of what might have happened in Bethlehem during the three kings’ journey as they followed the Christmas star. Amahl, a crippled shepherd boy, and his mother entertain three kings who are journeying to deliver precious gifts to a miraculous and mysterious child. During their short stay with the family, the visitors impart their wisdom to the boy and his mother, and a miracle results.

Stage Director Sandra Hartman is taking a traditional approach, keeping the action set in the time and place originally set out by Menotti. She has a unique perspective on the story, however.

“The way I look at it, the opera may be called Amahl and the Night Visitors but it is about the mother’s story of love and redemption. It is the story of her desperation that causes her to steal. Then she hears the message of the three kings, and she gives back the gold she has stolen. The three kings and Amahl help her to go through a journey, and she gets through the other side with faith and belief, and a miracle happens.”

Hartman is very pleased with the cast, most of which are performing roles with the Delaware Valley Opera Company for the first time. She is especially pleased with the combination she has in treble Nile Andah and mezzo-soprano Ashley Colabella.

Andah has appeared in several productions with DVOC, including “Max” in Werther and “The Second Spirit” in The Magic Flute, but “Amahl” will be his first leading role with the company. He has performed many leading musical theater roles in his school’s theater program, and he has performed with the Keystone State Boychoir for the last 2 years.

Musical Director Gabriel Rebolla will interpret the piano score for all performances.

The production’s talented cast includes treble Nile Andah as Amahl, mezzo-soprano Ashley Colabella as the Mother, tenor David Price as Kaspar (12/10 and 1/7), tenor Robert West as Kaspar (12/11 and 1/8), bass Evan Thomas as Melchior, baritone Anthony Sharp as Balthazar, and baritone Mark Rohland as the Page.

Performances at Venice Island Performing Arts and Recreation Center in Manayunk are on December 10 at 7 p.m., and December 11 at 3 p.m. and 6 p.m. Performances at Stage One Performing Arts Complex in Media are on January 7 at 4 p.m. and 7 p.m., and January 8 at 3 p.m.

Tickets are $20 for adults and $10 for children for all performances at all venues.

Venice Island Performing Arts and Recreation Center is located at 7 Lock Street, Philadelphia, PA 19127, surrounded by a public metered parking lot. Additional parking, metered and free, can be found throughout the neighborhood. For directions contact VIPARC at 215685-3583.

Beloved Toy Rabbit Teaches All About Love fter a young girl becomes ill with scarlet fever, a toy rabbit rounds up his friends to save her. Forced to choose between becoming real and saving the girl, the velveteen rabbit embarks on a remarkable journey, finding out what it truly means to love.

Wolf Performing Arts Center (Wolf PAC)’s “The Velveteen Rabbit” takes the stage this fall at Rosemont College’s Rotwitt Theater for three consecutive days. Shows are December 9 (7 p.m.), December 10 (11 a.m., 3 p.m., 7 p.m.) and December 11 (3 p.m.).

Wolf Performing Arts Center Tickets are $15 for adults and $10 for chil(Wolf PAC)’s “The Velveteen dren, students, and seniors.

Rabbit” takes the stage this Wolf PAC’s production features two fall at Rosemont College’s unique casts; the ‘Velveteen’ cast and Rotwitt Theater for the ‘Rabbit’ cast.

December 9 - 11. Wolf PAC The performance tackles universal is offering a sensory-friendly themes of acceptance, friendship, and performance on December love. Ruthie Cohen, who plays the vel10 at 3 p.m. veteen rabbit, ‘Rabbit’ cast, feels this role came her way at the perfect time.

“I was so ready for the kind of heartwarming, emotional rollercoaster The Velveteen Rabbit is. I love coming to rehearsal, becoming my character, and feeling so many different things all at once: excitement, elation, heartbreak, and tranquility,” she said.

Haley Garecht, who plays the velveteen rabbit, ‘Velveteen’ cast, thinks the performance has not only impacted her life but will impact the audience’s lives as well.

“The Velveteen Rabbit is a hard-hitting play about a child’s love, and I think it’s hard not to be affected by that. I hope the audience leaves with the thought that love is powerful, more even than death,” she said.

This year, Wolf PAC is offering a sensory-friendly performance of “The Velveteen Rabbit” on December 10 at 3 p.m. The show is specially designed for audience members who have PHILADELPHIA autism, developmental differences, or other sensory sensitivities.

“Theater is for all children. That’s what it really comes down to,” said Bobbi Wolf, Executive Director of Wolf PAC. “The Velveteen Rabbit shares the message of acceptance, a message which we live by at Wolf Performing Arts Center."

“I think it’s super great that Wolf PAC is bringing theater to people who don't usually get to experience it,” said Nina Aagaard, who plays toy soldier cast ‘Velveteen.’ “One of my cast mates informed me that a boy we both knew from camp, who had autism, would be coming to our show. She said his mom had actually started crying when my cast mate told her about this opportunity.”

Sensory accommodations include lower sound and light levels, reduced strobes and lighting focused on the audience, designated “Take a Break” areas in the lobby, additional guidance and sensory supports, trained staff to assist with needs, and flexible house rules.

“I have really been changed by the process of learning to play this character,” said Garecht.

“The Velveteen Rabbit can teach everyone so much about learning to love, even if you don’t think you can.”

The concert opens with Overture to the Magic Flute by Wolfgang Mozart.

The concert continues with guest soloist Kimberly Reighley, flute, performing Concerto for Flute and Orchestra by Lowell Liebermann.

This dramatic and Romantic flute concerto is one of the most important twentieth-century additions to the repertory of the instrument. In 1994 the National Flute Society of the United States named it as the best new work for the instrument. The concerto is in three movements and begins with a devoted light and lyrical theme. The middle movement, Adagio, creates a hypnotic effect with a pulsing off-beat accompaniment that continues throughout offering up a mood that is Romantic and tender. The finale is fast paced and demands from the artist virtuosity, technical brilliance and endurance.

Ms. Reighley, Professor of Flute at West Chester University, is the Principal Flutist with the Delaware Symphony, Opera Delaware and the Bay-Atlantic Symphony, and Piccoloist with the Reading Symphony. In addition, she is the Co-Artistic director of the chamber ensemble, Mélomanie, an ensemble that pairs early and contemporary works performed on both period and modern instruments. Kim is also a member of the Quintsylvania Winds.

The concert concludes with Ancient Aires & Dances, Suite No. 1 by Ottorino Respighi and Symphony No. 2 in B Minor by Alexander Borodin.

Concert tickets are $18 or $15 for seniors/students. Children under 12 (one child per paying adult) are admitted free. Upon presentation of the Delaware County or Montgomery County Library card two tickets may be purchased for the price of one at the ticket table the day of the concert. There is ample free parking adjacent to the theatre and the Life Center is handicapped accessible. For info, call 610-879-7059 or visit www.dcsmusic.org.
