Beginning in 1988, Michael Kenna photographed the Nazi concentration and extermination camps. His goal was to convey what he himself found impossible to forget about the camps: the inexpressible suffering of the victims that can only be hinted at by the haunting emptiness of the camps. These 88 images resonate a greater truth that challenges our collective conscience to avoid repeating this dark and sinister part of human history.

Granny can’t remember what year it is, and Alma’s mom is terrified of desserts –including the wedding cake. Ike, the wedding coordinator, is determined to keep everything running smoothly, but when a surprise guest makes an appearance, it all falls to hilarious pieces. Be prepared to dance the chicken dance, catch the bouquet, or carry out a corpse during this deadly reception.
Peddler’s Pub is open to receive guests at 7:00 p.m. while guests should arrive by 7:30 for dinner. Act I, of the show, begins at 8:00—dinner is served during intermission—followed by Act II—and dessert. Guests arrive in the lobby of the Cock ‘n Bull Restaurant and are taken to the Pub.

"Not Playing the Fool" - Singer Eddie Skuller pays tribute to jazz legend Jimmy Scott in new revue
March 11, 2005 |
Add to Itinerary |
Times: 8 pm
http://www.bobegan.net
Location: Odette's on South River Rd. in New Hope, PA
Phone: 215-862-3000
Admission: $15 cover, $10 food or drink minimum
It is the crooners’ art to give epic voice to intimate sorrow, but who speaks for the singer? On his forthcoming album of jazz standards and sophisticated pop makeovers, Somebody’s Fool, vocalist Eddie Skuller sends a valentine to an often-unsung jazz great, Jimmy Scott.
Skuller's dramatic delivery strikes a key with all generations, and he draws from the famous hits and out-of-the-way favorites of each, with a classic yet hip lonely heart lounge that points a new direction for the jazz-club canon while nodding to a lineage both lauded and overlooked.
