SUMMARY:Gloucester Stage presents BAD BOOKS by Sharyn Rothstein
DESCRIPTION:When a concerned mother finds her son with an “inappropriate” book\, an attempt to reason with the local librarian erupts into an explosive\, town-wide confrontation. As tensions rise and consequences escalate\, we learn that these women have more that connects them than what meets the eye.

Bevin O’Garaº. Running from June 4 to 27\, all performances are at the Natti-Willsky Performance Center – 267 East Main Street\, Gloucester. Showtimes are Wednesdays – Saturdays at 7:30pm\, with matinees Saturdays & Sunday at 2:00pm.

SUMMARY:United Flamenco presents Live Music and Dance
DESCRIPTION:Each summer United Flamenco creates a living space for flamenco to be experienced\, developed\, and shared. Rather than presenting a fixed production\, they offer something more immediate: an encounter with flamenco as it is practiced\, tested\, and shaped in real time. The evening brings together two complementary dimensions of the art form with live music\, singing\, and dance: a new creative work in development that stretches the boundaries of traditional flamenco and a tablao-style cuadro performance. Together\, they offer a view into both creation and real-time practice.
