“The Eagle Huntress” tells the story of Aisholpan, a 13-year old girl, who trains to become the first female eagle huntress in 12 generations of her family.

they are witnessing. But that doesn’t, in the end, make ‘The Eagle Huntress’ any less wonderful,” said A.O. Scott, New York Times. Tickets prices are $9-$11.

Feb. 22-25, March 1-3— RUTLAND—Drama critics praise “Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike” by Christopher Durang as a hilarious and unforgettable adaptation of Chekov themes. For the third show of its 13th season, Vermont Actors’ Repertory Theatre will present the 2013 Tony award-winning show in the Brick Box at the Paramount Theatre, 30 Center St., on Feb. 22- 24 at 7:30 p.m., Feb. 25 at 2 p.m. andMarch 1-3 at 7:30 p.m. The story revolves around the relationships of three middle-aged single siblings, two of whom live together, and takes place during a visit by a third, Masha, who supports them. They discuss their lives and loves, argue, and Masha threatens to sell the house. Some of the show’s elements were derived from the works of Anton Chekov, including several character names, the play’s setting in a cherry orchard, and the
theme of the possible loss of an ancestral home. From The New York Times review: “Broad comic acting is raised to the level of high art … deliriously funny … a heedless good time … The show’s a ton of fun even if you can’t tell your seagull from your Uncle Vanya.” A favorite on the regional theatre circuit, Durang’s witty and memorable play will provide an enjoyable evening. The cast for the show features: Bill Cruikshank, Kim Moyer, Julie Reddington, Eric Ray, Dana Haley and Jess Poljacik. Crew for the show includes Director Bonnie Pritchard, Stage Manager Susan Gladding-Heitzman, Producer Sandra Gartner, with costumes by Nancy Ellery and lighting design by David Lane. Tickets are $20 and can be purchased in person at the Paramount Theatre Box Office, by calling 802-775-0903, online at paramountvt. org, or at the door.

Jeff Nugent paints geographic portrait of Grand Tetons in Audubon Society program Thursday, Feb. 22, 7 p.m.—RUTLAND—Wyoming’s Teton Range is arguably the iconic mountain range of the American West. The Rutland County Audubon presents an evening program on Thursday, Feb. 22, exploring the history and geology of this spectacular region, and the challenges facing the National Park Service as it manages visitors and the environment in a time of more visitors and less funding.
The program is illustrated with beautiful photographs and stories by Vermonter Jeff Nugent, an experienced volunteer for the park service. Nugent provides the audience with an insider’s perspective on life in the National Park. His primary role as a volunteer at the Grand Teton National Park was creating a comprehensive place names database. Nugent’s full time job for over two decades has been as the GIS/mapping
specialist at the Windham Regional Commission in Brattleboro. He spends as much time as possible time exploring the outdoors of Vermont and beyond by foot, bike, kayak, and skis. The program will take place at Grace Congregational Church, 8 Court St., Rutland, on Thursday, Feb. 22 at 7 p.m. in the Fellowship Hall. It is free and open to the public.

Woodland tour to focus on wildlife benefits of a timber harvest
Saturday, Feb. 24, 9 a.m.—WALLINGFORD—Join foresters Kathy Beland and Frank Hudson, and landowners Dan and Pat Stone for Walk in the Woods: Wildlife Benefits of a Timber Harvest tour on Saturday, Feb. 24, 9 a.m.-12 p.m. Participants will see an active timber harvest that will benefit woodland bird and wildlife habitat on the Stone’s 132-acre certified tree farm. Learn about their participation in the Woods, Wildlife and Warblers Program. The Stones’ property has been conserved with the Vermont Land Trust. Additionally, some of the trees harvested will be part of the Habitat for Heat program, which will be sent to the Vermont Wood Pellet Company in nearby Clarendon where the wood will be transformed into pellets that will heat a local assisted-living facility. The Habitat for Heat program goals are to incentivize landowners to actively manage their woods while creating new habitat for birds and wildlife, through providing
a sustainable supply of nearby market material to forest product companies keeping the revenue stream localized, thus encouraging strong rural communities and a clean Vermont energy economy. This program is free and open to the public and is intended to provide information and inspiration for other woodland owners to enhance bird and wildlife habitat while accomplishing other goals for their land. Registration is required as space is limited. RSVP online at vtwoodsandwildlife.org/events, email info@vtwoodsandwildlife.org or call 802-747-7900. This event has been assigned three (3.0) Category 1 CFE credits through the Society of American Foresters. The Stone Tree Farm is at 311 Mooney Road, Wallingford. Dress for the conditions with appropriate footwear, and be prepared to walk on uneven terrain to access the harvest site. In the event of severe weather, the event will be cancelled.

SVM to host WWI re-enactment in recognition of Centennial Saturday, Feb. 24, 2 p.m.—GRANVILLE, N.Y.—The Slate Valley Museum will host “A New Yorker Enlists in the First World War,” a re-enactment by historian Glenn Lunde on Saturday, Feb. 24 at 2 p.m. Lunde offers an inside look at the experience of immigrants to America who also chose to serve their country during World War I. Lunde has had a lifelong passion for history, which began at the age of 12 when he volunteered as the printer’s apprentice at Richmondtown Restoration, Staten Island, N.Y. As an adult, his interest in history continued as a re-enactor specializing in 18th Century military and social history. He has participated in re-enactments from the Caribbean
to Canada. In 2005, Lunde expanded his re-enacting activities to include early 20th Century history, specifically the World War I era. He has studied and given numerous discussions/presentations on both the American and British experiences in the Great War. “This event will be meaningful and educational for all ages,” said Krista Rupe, executive director of SVM. “We hope veterans, their families, and all interested in U.S. history come out to learn about the Great War.” The lecture is free to the public. Light refreshments will be served. Slate Valley Museum is located at 17 Water St., Granville, N.Y. For more information, visit slatevalleymuseum. org.

Bookstock seeks volunteers for summer festival WOODSTOCK—This summer Woodstock will host the 10th annual Bookstock celebration of all things literary July 27-29 and the organizers are seeking help to make this free event happen. “Bookstock is one of the major cultural events of the Woodstock calendar. About 1,200 people attend the more than 40 readings and other literary activities,” Jordan Engel, Bookstock 2018 coordinator, said. With three days of events featuring authors, presenters and performers, as well as a huge book sale on the Green, it takes many volunteers. Events range from author talks, to poetry slams, music, play reading, art projects and much more. The organizing committee is seeking volunteers to help with making signs, coordinating volunteers, raising funds, writing grants and organizing books. In the past a local church and the library have worked together on the book sale on the Green. The
JONES DONUTS
church is no longer able to participate so the organization is seeking another local organization that would like to take on the collection and storage of books for the event. The organization who steps up to do this will reap at least half of the profits from the book sale which is usually between $6,000-9,000 each year. If someone has a dry storage location (no heat necessary), they could donate for use between now and July for books, that would be greatly appreciated. This summer’s festival will feature, among many others, the poet Robert Pinsky, former Poet Laureate Consultant in poetry to the Library of Congress, author of 19 books of poetry, who also had an appearance on “The Simpsons.” Those that love books and have a bit of time to spare, this is the right volunteer activity.

Sunday, Feb. 25, 7 p.m.—RANDOLPH—The winners in Chandler’s 2017 competition for new plays on current social issues written by Vermont playwrights are Emily Rosenbaum of Stowe, Margot Lasher of East Montpelier, and Maura Campbell of Burlington. On the last Sundays of February, March, and April, the three prize-winning scripts will be produced in staged readings in Chandler’s Upper Gallery, as the Issues Play Series. With a 7 p.m. start, each reading will be followed by a talkback for actors and audiences to give feedback to the authors, who will attend. Complimentary refreshments will be available
between the readings and the talkbacks. On Sunday, Feb. 25, Emily Rosenbaum’s play “Precession,” directed by Mike Backman, tells of two young men caught up in an interrogation program just after World War II. Based on an historical incident, it poses the age-old questions of science vs. humanity, and leaves the audience asking both how these questions pertain to our age and if these will ever be resolved. Sunday, March 25 sees Margot Lasher’s play “I Belong Somewhere,” directed by Jeanne Beckwith, a small group of homeless people and animals gather in a vacant lot. They have all been affected by war, and they
are protective of each other. Death is always close to their lives, and they struggle to understand what is happening and to stay together. The final play will be read Sunday, April 29. In Maura Campbell’s play “Cross Talk,” directed by Richard Waterhouse, 19-year-old Grassie is just out of detox and compelled to go to a Narcotics Anonymous meeting where he meets others like him, who are trying to get through each day without picking up a drug. Hope and love are manifested in their struggles to stay clean by relying on each other.

Friday, Feb. 23, 8 p.m.—RUTLAND—For 68 years, ski families have cheered on the official kickoff to winter with the ski film company that started it all — Warren Miller Entertainment. While winter has been in full swing already, Warren Miller’s “Line of Descent,” that premiered in the fall of 2017, is still a hot ticket to see. Catch it bigger than ever, on the huge screen at Paramount Theatre, Friday, Feb. 23 at 8 p.m. Make it an even more special event by paying homage to the legendary Warren Miller, who recently passed away in January 2018. This will have been the last film presented during his living years. If there’s one thing Warren Miller Entertainment has learned in seven decades of making ski films, it’s that snow riders are a family — one big tribe comprised of many smaller ones. Familial rites are passed down through generations. Skier roots grow deep in high mountain soil. As the family grows, the traditions grow richer. And this year, it’s deeper and fresher than ever. Find out more at warrenmiller.com. Tickets are $16 available at paramountvt.org. Paramount Theatre is located at 30 Center St., Rutland. For more information, call 802-775-0903.

“Vanishing Vermonters” is a recording of 23 Vermonters and how they cope in the state.
Author Peter Miller talks on new book “Vanishing Vermonters” in Rutland
Thursday, Feb. 22, 6:30 p.m.—RUTLAND—On Thursday, Feb. 22 at 6:30 p.m., Phoenix Books Rutland will host Peter Miller for a talk on his new book, “Vanishing Vermonters: Loss of a Rural Culture.” “Vanishing Vermonters” is the newest and most important of Miller’s five books on his home state. He recorded 23 Vermonters on how they cope in one of the most expensive states in the Union. The book includes 168 pages and 91 photographs that display life in Vermont rather than its iconic beauty. This book came about due to the number of letters and emails Miller received after writing a short history of the changes he had noticed while photographing Vermont between 1950-2013. Peter Miller began his career in 1959 as a reporter for LIFE Magazine. He left LIFE to move to his home state of Vermont where he became a freelance photographer and writer. For 20 years he was a contributing editor to SKI Magazine and a freelance writer for The New York Times, Smithsonian and many travel magazines. He became a stock photographer for The Image Bank, Iconica and Picade, a cooperative stock photographer agency. He has authored nine books including “Vermont People,” “Vermont Farm Women,” “People of the Great Plains” and “The First Time I Saw Paris.” He has won numerous awards for his books, his photography, and was named Vermonter of the Year and honored by the Vermont Legislature for his work in documenting the culture of Vermont. He has had exhibitions of his work in New York, Paris, and Tokyo. He lives in Colbyville, Vt. This event is free and open to all. Phoenix Books Rutland is located at 2 Center St., Rutland. Copies of the book will be available to purchase and have signed. For more information, visit phoenixbooks.biz.

TOM RUSH
Folk legend Tom Rush returns to Chandler Music Hall Friday, Feb. 23, 7:30 p.m.—RANDOLPH— Tom Rush, one of the most celebrated folk and American roots musicians of our time, returns to the Chandler Center for the Arts for one night only on Friday, Feb. 23 at 7:30 pm. One of the most popular artists with central Vermont and Upper Valley audiences over many years, Rush will be joined on the Chandler Music Hall stage by his longtime accompanist, Matt Nakoa. Rush, a New Hampshire native, has been delighting audiences worldwide for more than 50 years with signature hits such as his own “No Regrets” and “Driving Wheel,” as well as iconic covers of acclaimed singer-songwriters such as Joni Mitchell, whose “Circle Game” and
“Urge for Going” have been staples of Rush’s repertoire since the folk revival days of the 1960s. Folk enthusiasts also cherish his sensitive renditions of Jackson Browne’s “Jamaica Say You Will” and Eric von Schmidt’s “Joshua Gone Barbados.” Tom Rush continues to assert a profound influence on a new generation of artists, remaining as vital and engaging as ever. Chandler musiclovers can discover this for themselves when they reconnect with the renowned folk musician at “An Evening with Tom Rush.” Chandler Music Hall is located at 71 Main St., Randolph. For tickets and more information, call 802-728-6464, visit chandler-arts.org, or stop by Chandler weekdays between 12-4 p.m.

RCHS offers low-cost spay/neuter clinic

Strawberries are shown growing in a hydroponics system, which allows the crop to be grown at any time of the year, indoors.
Cavendish to sponsor hydroponics workshop
Tuesday, Feb. 27, 6 p.m.—CAVENDISH—The Cavendish Energy Committee will sponsor a workshop on Tuesday, Feb. 27 at 6 p.m. to be held in the Cavendish Town Office meeting room on the subject of hydroponics. Casey Hodge of Southern Vermont Hydroponics in Mount Holly will present the workshop. He will discuss suitability for southern Vermont climate, and practicality of growing our own fresh food year round. His presentation will include a general overview of the different types of hydroponics and the most used and useful growing methods for the home. Also, he will address the reasons why we should grow this way, including the economies and advantages over traditional agriculture. He will also include examples of plants and equipment.
An underlying reason for our concern with energy is the state of our natural environment and the need for people to live more sustainably. Hydroponics is a method of growing plants without soil. While the practice of hydroponics has been around for hundreds of years, the issue of sustainability has taken on new meaning in our world today and hydroponics is one way of helping to feed us. NASA is studying hydroponics for future space missions, and countries such as Holland and Canada have many acres of hydroponic systems producing a variety of crops. Anyone from any town may attend the workshop. The Cavendish Town Office is located at 37 High St., Cavendish. Light refreshments will be served at the workshop. For more information, contact Karen Wilson at 203-550-7430.
