And thanks to our many MAG sponsors, the community gets to experience this great group Friday night and at a great price.<br /><br />From past experiences, the play is suitable for the whole family. The cast takes time at the end to introduce themselves and answer questions (which the younger kids take advantage of!). <br /><br />Every year I've walked away thinking, "what a great performance". I'm sure this year will be no difference. <br /><br />Friday April 27th, 7pm at the Millbrook High School Auditorium. Cost: $10 adults. Students / Seniors are free.

Michael Sassano (mandolin) is from Mahopac.</div><div> </div><div> </div><div></div><div></div><div>"Joan's clear and compelling voice brings new interpretations to standards from Patsy Cline to Bill Monroe, and creates new vocal stylings for Too Blue's original songs. Betsy's award-winning guitar playing has been featured in "Flatpicking Guitar" magazine, and she is one of very few female performers in this demanding bluegrass style of "flatpicking". Jamie is the newest addition to the Too Blue crew. (Jamie) attended the Jazz and Contemporary Music program at the New School University in New York City. (Michael) has been playing the mandolin for over 25 years and has been greatly influenced by his first teacher, the renowned Jay Ungar, as well as Andy Statman. A founding member of the eclectic string band 'Out To Lunch', Michael has been performing throughout the Northeast and Canada for the last 2 decades."</div><div> </div><div> </div><div></div><div>Bios and clips are available at: <a href="http://www.toobluemusic.com/">http://www.toobluemusic.com/</a></div><div></div><div></div>John Duxhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02385365978208459928noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6037567081694519098.post-88601496245125890552010-04-20T05:30:00.000-07:002010-04-20T05:41:18.496-07:00Friday April 30th: A Mid-Summer's Night's Dream<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjEu4X3J-sqmnOALGIWLbepTKkflLBcWAoB3TUNnNtc-fIv4qOIRv5LmZas7wE7XPNBI5pOju8_Ibhgo8_mRIQyKfvPs3zQJrueKult4wtunflQTciHOq32yR_agE-U-gIrmcqrwJSmjv0/s1600/Midsummer+a.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5462198810703913938" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 180px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjEu4X3J-sqmnOALGIWLbepTKkflLBcWAoB3TUNnNtc-fIv4qOIRv5LmZas7wE7XPNBI5pOju8_Ibhgo8_mRIQyKfvPs3zQJrueKult4wtunflQTciHOq32yR_agE-U-gIrmcqrwJSmjv0/s200/Midsummer+a.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div>Friday April 30th, MAG is pleased to host the the Hudson Valley Shakespeare Festival for a second year.
