SUMMARY:“Earthly Elements: The Building Blocks of Creation” Exhibit with Debra Bucci & Brian Evans
DESCRIPTION:Art in Bloom Gallery is excited to pair the creations of painter Debra Bucci and ceramicist Brian Evans in their elementally inspired exhibit. After surviving an action-packed year\, Debra’s newest acrylics uncover the “calm” in nature\, featuring rippling waters\, radiant light\, and abstract textures. Meanwhile\, Brian’s altered vessels emerge from nature’s fundamental building blocks. Formed from soft\, wheel thrown clay\, Brian’s glazes emulate the water erosion\, oxidation\, and scorched surfaces of nature. \nJoin us in the gallery on Sunday\, September 21st\, 2-5pm for our Artist Reception. Enjoy special refreshments\, meet our artists\, and enjoy live music by jazz guitarist Roger Davis!

SUMMARY:Riot Grrrls: Measure for Measure 
DESCRIPTION:Shakespeare’s most provocative play takes the stage in an all-female production that lets the original text speak—sharp\, witty\, and uncomfortably timely. When Vienna’s long-ignored morality laws are suddenly enforced\, a young novice named Isabella finds herself caught between silence and sacrifice.   \nUNCW Theatre is producing an all-women’s version of Shakespeare’s Measure for Measure as part of the Riot Grrrls series. The production takes on patriarchy\, justice\, and abuse of power — themes that feel especially urgent right now — with women playing every role.  \nWhat makes this especially compelling is that it gives young women the chance to play roles they wouldn’t normally get to touch in Shakespeare — judges\, dukes\, corrupt officials\, and even clowns. Seeing those female voices and bodies in parts written for men changes the way the story lands.  \nPerformances are 7:30pm Thursday-Saturday\, and 2:00pm Sunday\, from September 25-28\, and October 2-5\, 2025.\n

SUMMARY:Thalian Association Presents The Rocky Horror Show
DESCRIPTION:The Rocky Horror Show\nhttps://www.thalianhall.org/tact-rocky-25\nShowtimes\nDates: Friday September 26\, 2025 – Sunday October 5\, 2025\nFriday – Saturday Time: 7:30 pm\nSunday Time: 2:00 pm\nLocation\nMain Stage Thalian Hall\n310 Chestnut St.\nBook\, Music and Lyrics by Richard O’Brien In this cult classic\, sweethearts Brad and Janet\, stuck with a flat tire during a storm\, discover the eerie mansion of Dr. Frank-N-Furter. As their innocence is lost\, Brad and Janet meet a houseful of wild characters\, including a rocking biker and a creepy butler. Through elaborate dances and rock songs\, Frank-N-Furter unveils his latest creation: a muscular man named “Rocky.” That “Sweet Transvestite” and his motley crew did the “Time Warp” on Broadway in a 25th anniversary revival. Complete with sass from the audience\, cascading toilet paper\, and an array of other audience participation props\, this deliberately kitschy rock ’n’ roll sci-fi gothic musical is more fun than ever! The original London production of The Rocky Horror Show\, directed by Jim Sharman\, premiered at the Royal Court Theatre on June 19\, 1973 and won the 1973 Evening Standard Theatre Award for Best Musical. Later transferring to several other locations in London\, the show ran for a total of 2\,960 performances. On March 10\, 1975\, The Rocky Horror Show opened on Broadway at the Belasco Theatre\, starring Tim Curry and featuring Meatloaf and “Ritz” O’Brien. In 2001\, the show returned to Broadway at Circle in the Square Theatre\, starring Raúl Esparza\, Tom Hewitt\, Alice Ripley and Jarrod Emick. Directed by Christopher Ashley\, the revival ran for 437 performances.
