Nelson County's own Molimo (Kevin Crowe, Jim McAvoy, RW Smith & Tom Serrano) From Molimo's myspace page: *Molimo* is a ritual in which music is used to heal a group that feels themselves to be out of balance with nature. It also describes the sacred instrument played in the ritual. The mythical white elephant embodies the spirit of *Molimo* - the possibility of redemption, the return of "soul." In this spirit we play songs that call us to engagement to community - to stand against the madness......stand with us! Kevin Crowe - songwriter, bass, vox, guitar: a childhood divided by Japan and Virginia...English degree leveraged a life of songwriting, carpentry and wood fired pottery....favorite color: wood ash Jim McAvoy - songwriter, guitar, harmonica, vox: native Virginian from Maine who builds things that work. RW Smith - producer, bass, guitar, keyboard, vox: Texas roots and a musician since the age of 10... from Africa, Europe and 'round to Asia working the oil fields and absorbing a myriad of musical influences.

07 / 6 (event) Romeo and Juliet : A CSI Start: 6:30 pm Start: 07/06/2007 - 18:30 End: 07/08/2007 - 13:00 Romeo & Juliet: A Crime Scene Investigation, A Deconstruction/Exploration of the Most Excellent and Lamentable Tragedy of William Shakespeare, an original work conceived & directed by THEATREWORKS Artistic Director, Patricia Finn Rapiejko. THEATREWORKS Repertory Company presents a new play based on William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. Although *Romeo & Juliet : A CSI* is based on William Shakespeare's beloved text of passionate discovery and young love, romance is not the primary focus. This reorientation of the text follows the format of a crime scene investigation, beginning at the tomb at the end of Act V. Here, the Royal collects testimony from the survivors to illuminate the details of the final days and to explore the question, "What led these young people to choose suicide?" The audience is also questioned, "Would you recognize the signs of depression and suicide ideation (thinking about it) in a son, a daughter, or a friend?" The concept of this original play is not to rewrite or abandon Shakespeare, but to find in his words a microcosm of modern life. 1027 reads more info
