Ravens and Wolves at the Library, Oh My!
Sunday, January 04, 2009
The Westport Library has two terrific theatrical events happening this week:
On Thursday, watch as Mark Shenker brings the poetic magic of author and legend Edgar Allen Poe to life. Stepping into character as one of the most celebrated and prolific American authors, Mr. Shenker will paint an animated portrait that thrills, chills and teaches.
On Saturday, the University of Connecticut's Opera Theater will wow the younger set with their musical version of Little Red Riding Hood. Enhanced by the music of composer Seymour Barab, this show is a perfect way to dress up a drab winter afternoon. Stick around afterward for a chance to chat with the performers!
