THEATER&ARTS

FRIDAY, JULY 23

Creative Cauldron Concerts

in Cherry Hill Park. Creative Cauldron is hosting two concerts this weekend in Cherry Hill Park near the park's tennis courts (right by the community center). On July 23 at 7:30 p.m. Roz White will be singing at the park. White is a vocalist, actress, motivational speaker, and teaching artist. She starred in and received stellar reviews for her self-penned cabaret "Pearl Bailey... by Request.” This concert is inspired by the warmth and nostalgia of White’s personal record collection and her early music inspiration gazing at albums and reading the liner notes on Gladys Knight and Luther Vandross. Expect those familiar hits, paired with Roz's soulful voice and musicianship. On July 24 at 7:30 p.m. The Kennedy’s will be performing at the park. Hear Pete & Maura Kennedy perform songs from this album and a mix of your favorites and requests from their vast catalog. Celebrate all that makes the Kennedys The Kennedys: their harmonies and instrumental prowess, blending elements of country music, bluegrass, Western swing and “janglepop,” and a homecoming for these local legends. Tickets are available for $30. Bring your own seat.
