5/3 Sat 8 pm Encore Performance of the Play
"My Name is Rachel Corrie"
– Monona. At
St. Stephens Lutheran Church, 5700
Pheasant Hill Road.
http://www.oliveolive.org/directions.html#ststephens. The play had a hugely successful,
filled-to-capacity four-night run in Madison
in March, so we have decided to offer another performance to accommodate
the many people who had to be turned away. UW drama student Brittany Jordt will
again portray the part of Rachel Corrie. Admission is free; donations are
welcomed, with half going to the costs of producing the play and half to the Augusta Victorial
Hospital in East
Jerusalem. The play will be
preceeded by a benefit dinner at the church, from 6 - 7:30 pm, catered by the
Dardanelles Restaurant, featuring Kefteh (Lamb Meatballs), Rice Pilav, Spinach
Borek, Coban Salad, Baklava, Hot & Spicy Tea, Iced Thai Coffee, and
Regular/Decaf Coffee. Tickets for the dinner are $25 single or $40 for a
pair. Dinner seating is limited. For tickets please contact 608-222-1241. All proceeds will benefit Augusta Victorial Hospital.
AND you are encouraged to
arrive early in order to view (and bid on) the O-Live! O-Live Silent Art Auction with many wonderful
donated pieces of artwork. The auction will close the following day,
Sunday May 4, with music, refreshments & reception at 6 pm, and
final bids taken at 8 pm. High bidders can pay and leave with their new
art work. (If not in attendance, winning bidders will be notified and can pay
and pick up their artwork from the church during regular church hours.) 100% of
proceeds from the auction benefit Augusta
Victoria Hospital.
