The Delling Shore by Sam Marks, directed by Associate Artistic Director Meredith McDonough February 27-April 7, Bingham Theatre

From the moment Frank Bay and his daughter Adrianne arrive at Thomas Wright’s secluded lake house, Thomas and his daughter are out to get them. Thomas’ writing has brought him fame and fortune, but fellow novelist Frank still struggles to find a foothold in the literary world for himself and for Adrianne, also an aspiring author. Over the course of one fraught evening, as the men

confront their professional jealousies and personal failures, their offspring are drawn inexorably into the fray—and words become weapons.

Appropriate by Branden Jacobs-Jenkins, directed by Gary Griffin, in association with Victory Gardens Theater March 5- April 7, Pamela Brown Auditorium

When the Lafayettes descend upon a crumbling Arkansan plantation to liquidate their dead patriarch’s estate, his three adult children collide over clutter, debt, and a contentious family history. But after a disturbing discovery surfaces among their father’s possessions, the reunion takes a turn for the explosive, unleashing a series of crackling surprises and confrontations. A play about the trouble with inheritance, memory loss, and the art of repression.

Cry Old Kingdom by Jeff Augustin, directed by Tom Dugdale March 8 – April 7, Bingham Theatre

Haiti, 1964. Francois “Papa Doc” Duvalier’s repressive regime has forced once-successful artist Edwin into hiding, turning him into a walking ghost. When Edwin finds a young man building a boat to escape to America, and persuades him to pose for a painting, he finally feels alive again. But with cries for revolution resounding through the nation and the regime’s death squads on the prowl, no one’s life is safe. Sometimes trying to dream and survive forces impossible choices.

Solo Exhibit by Berndnaut Smilde

Land of Tomorrow is pleased to present a solo exhibition by Dutch artist Berndnaut Smilde. The exhibition opened with a reception on Friday, February 15th and remains on display until March 26th. This show marks Berndnaut Smilde's first solo exhibition in the United States. Smilde draws upon his daily surroundings and spaces to confront the moment of friction between construction and deconstruction, most notably within his cloud creations and artificially recreating meteorological conditions indoors. He analyzes each space and their appearance, breaking them down to work with their details. Choices made in Smilde’s process are often situations that deal with duality, questioning inside and outside, temporality, size, the function of materials and architectural elements. More simply, Smilde has developed a method of creating a small, perfect cloud in the center of a room. To control the weather requires meticulous planning and just the right circumstances; temperature, humidity, lighting, and even mood have to be exact. When the environment is prepared, Smilde summons the cloud, as if by magic. The effect doesn’t last long, but seeing something develop where there was previously only empty space produces a fleeting moment of emotion, one which differs from viewer to viewer. The effect is so unique that Smilde’s cloud-conjuring was named one of Time Magazine’s top 50 inventions of the last year, and it’s here in the States for the first time in Louisville.

WHiGL

In his own words, Berndnaut Smilde describes his cloud creations as an idiosyncratic expression of almost cartoonish proportions: “You could see the cloud as a sign of misfortune. You could also read it as an element out of the Dutch landscape paintings in a physical form in a classical museum hall. At the same time I wanted to make (for once) a very clear image, an almost cliché and cartoon like visualization of having bad luck: ‘indeed, there nothing here and bullocks, it’s starting to rain!” Only seen by a handful of people in their physical state, the fleeting moment of Smilde's nimbus clouds are forever encapsulated in the form of photographs. These photographs serve as documents, the only evidence of the cloud's brief existence. Prints and originals can be purchased from the gallery to freeze the moment of creation forever. Berndnaut’s previous cloud installations include Cukurcuma Hamam in Istanbul, Academy Minerva in Groningen, and Kasteel D’Aspremont-Lynden in Rekem, Belgium. Land of Tomorrow is excited to be included among the institutions and places in which Berndnaut’s installations have taken place. Land of Tomorrow is a project space showcasing experimental work, founded by Dmitry Strakovsky and Drura Parrish. The gallery is located at 233 West Broadway, with 9 am-5 pm hours daily or by appointment. The cloud installation and photographs will remain at Land of Tomorrow until March 26th. Admission is free.

Derby Dinner Playhouse will present the musical Little Shop of Horrors, running through March 30, 2013. For ticket information please call 812-288-8281 or visit www.derbydinner.com. Little Shop of Horrors is an affectionate spoof of 1950s sci-fi movies. A down-and-out skid row floral assistant becomes an overnight

sensation when he discovers an exotic plant with a mysterious craving for fresh blood. The ill-tempered, R&B singing, carnivorous plant offers fame and fortune in exchange for satisfying its growing appetite. Little Shop of Horrors was based on the low-budget 1960 black comedy film directed by Roger Corman. One of the longest-running Off-Broadway shows of all time, this cultclassic has become a house-hold name - thanks to a highly successful film version in 1986 and a score by the song-writing team of Howard Ashman and Alan Menken. The tuneful Little Shop of Horrors score features early 1960's rock n’ roll, doo-wop, and Motown music, that includes songs such as “Grow For Me,” “Somewhere That’s Green,” “Suddenly, Seymour,” “Skid Row (Downtown),” and many more. Little Shop of Horrors is under the direction of Lee Buckholz with choreography by Heather Paige Folsom and musical direction by Scott Bradley. The cast will include Ricky Cona, Jillian Prefach, Kevin Crain, Matthew Bryan Feld, Tymika Prince, Tamika Skaggs, and more. Don’t miss the music, the fun, and the feeding, with Little Shop of Horrors.

St. Patricks Day

St. Patrick’s Day Parade

This spring, the luck of the Irish is with Louisville, as the St. Patrick’s Day parade rolls out for its 40th consecutive year. The parade offers the community an opportunity to celebrate Irish culture and heritage in a visual, engaging way, and is one of the most popular events of the year. Held the Saturday before St. Patrick’s Day, the parade will green up the city on March 9th, with related special events preceding and following the big day. The parade is sponsored and put on by the Ancient Order of Hibernians, the oldest Irish Catholic Organization in America. Because 2013 marks the 40th anniversary of the parade, this year’s theme has been established as “40 Shades of Green.” All participants and floats in the parade will gear their decorations towards this theme, with an eye towards creativity and family fun. Each year the parade draws more than 30,000 to Baxter Avenue and Bardstown Road, which is festooned with shamrocks and Irish flags to celebrate the patron saint of Ireland. Louisville itself has a large Irish Catholic population and is a natural hub of cultural activity, with pubs, restaurants, and shops all proclaiming their Irish heritage for the day. The parade will begin around 3 pm at the corner of Broadway and Baxter, and will continue down Baxter to Bardstown Road over the course of the afternoon. Of course, streets will be closed during this time, but with so much to see and to

do, a leisurely walk or bike ride in, alongside, or following the parade will ensure that the street closures are an opportunity for an entertaining afternoon. Louisville’s Irish (and Irish-for-a-day) population will have ample opportunities for celebration with a week of events leading up to and following the parade. Two days before the parade, on March 7th, downtown locales will host another favorite tradition: the Blessing of the Beer and the Tapping of the Keg. These events begin with a tour of the Bluegrass Brewing Company’s brewery, at the BBC on Main and Clay. The BBC brews a special keg of bourbon barrel stout for the Ancient Order of Hibernians that’s been aged for five years, and which is used in the parade festivities. An Irish Catholic priest then blesses the keg, which is marched behind a piper and all the A.O.H. members over to O’Shea’s, where the Tapping of the Keg party will commence. Then, six days after the parade, on March 15th, a dinner, dance, and fundraiser known as the Wearin’ O’ the Green party will be held at the Mellwood Arts Center. Participants can enjoy hors d’oeuvres, a cash bar, live music, and a silent auction. Tickets are $40 for the Wearin’ O’ the Green Party, but as always, the parade itself is free. Everyone from in town and across the river is invited, as St. Patrick drove the snakes out of Ireland, to drive the last of winter away with the St. Patrick’s Day parade.

Frankfort Avenue

Women Make the Avenue Work

To honor International Women’s Day and the more than sixty women who own businesses on Frankfort Avenue, the Frankfort Avenue Business Association will host an all-day celebration on Friday, March 8th from 10 am - 9 pm. Special events include movie screenings that highlight the women’s rights movement, a panel discussion with women business owners and services providers, a happy hour networking event, live music and special retail offers throughout the day. The Frankfort Avenue Business Association (FABA) is a non-profit organization with a mission to enhance Frankfort Avenue as a place to do business. The Association works to stimulate economic development along the business corridor and develop and implement marketing activities that promote and improve the business climate. Frankfort Avenue itself is full of character, with a freight train running parallel alongside the Avenue and dozens of unique and locally-owned boutiques, art studios, galleries, restaurants and attractions lining the street. With more than thirty locally owned restaurants located along a 2.5 mile stretch, Frankfort Avenue is a culinary hub that boasts al fresco dining, many options for international cuisine, and unique flavors of the city. The shopping on the Avenue features a wide variety of independently owned boutiques and shops offering a variety of items –

from vintage and consignment clothing to outdoor gear, imported crafts, antiques, home furnishings, wine, books, coffee, and much more. The neighborhood is also enhanced by libraries, parks, and several unique attractions for families and visitors to explore, like the historic Peterson-Dumesnil House, the Louisville Water Company and the American Printing House for the Blind. The fact that many of these businesses are owned and operated by women is a cause for celebration, which FABA is extending to the whole community! The first national Women’s Day was celebrated in America in 1909, and expanded to become an international celebration of the social, cultural, economic, and political contributions of women in 1911. IWD is now an official holiday in Afghanistan, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Burkina Faso, Cambodia, China, Cuba, Georgia, Guinea-Bissau, Eritrea, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Laos, Madagascar (for women only), Moldova, Mongolia, Montenegro, Nepal, Russia, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Uganda, Ukraine, Uzbekistan, Vietnam and Zambia. The tone and nature of IWD has, for the past few years, moved from being a reminder about the negatives to a celebration of the positives in women’s lives, and the FABA hopes that everyone will come out to see the great ways that women make the avenue work.

Quattro

Quattro - 4th Street Live's Hot New Restaurant Quattro—nestled in the heart of the diamondshaped area that encompasses 4th Street Live!—serves locally-sourced, rustic dishes based on memories from the chef’s childhood. That salt-of-the-Earth flavor, however, doesn’t mean that Quattro is old-fashioned—far from it. The newly-remodeled space gleams like a newly shined penny, and the modern copper tones promote an ambiance that is at once welcoming and energetic. Quattro’s local flavor is dreamed up by a team of local partners. Executive Chef Josh Hillyard and Louisville restaurant legend Bim Deitrich have teamed together to create a new Italian concept downtown, reflecting an independent spirit in both food and design. A lively bar scene offers regional Italian wines, finely crafted cocktails, and artisan beers, including local brews on tap from Bluegrass Brewing Company in Louisville and West Sixth Brewing in Lexington. Of course, an innovative Italian restaurant can’t rest on its libation laurels, and the seasonal, rotating menu is the real star of the show. The menu features exciting dishes ranging from grilled squid with chorizo vinaigrette to chargrilled hanger steak with salsa rossa, and satisfies even the most demanding sweet tooth with house-made desserts like orange budino with pistachio biscotti. Chef Hillyard, who learned his craft through stints at Danielle’s, Azalea, and Equus (under

the tutelage of local master Dean Corbett), has created many fresh and bold recipes that— coupled with Bim Dietrich’s wine and spirits selections—promise to treat their guests to a unique fusion of rustic Italian cuisine with contemporary southern charm. Quattro is the first locally owned and conceived concept on 4th Street Live! “It has always been my dream to own and operate my own restaurant, and Quattro represents an unbelievable opportunity to invest, partner, and operate with a local team of extraordinary individuals,” said Chef Hillyard. “This concept will provide an opportunity to showcase some great dishes that focus on seasonal ingredients that are also locally produced.” Bim Dietrich has designed Quattro to appeal to guests who want to experience an exciting and fresh atmosphere, great food, and great wines within a lively and unique dining environment. An icon of the Louisville restaurant scene with past successes in Myra’s, Dietrich’s in the Crescent, Allo Spiedo, and Primo, Bim has reentered the market with Quattro as the next great experience for the Louisville restaurant scene. Public lunch and dinner service began February 1st. For now, the restaurant offers full service Monday through Friday, with dinner service only on Saturdays.
