On the Arts Scene
New show opens at Masterworks on Friday
Jacqui Wooley is the latest artist to be featured in the Masterworks Foundation's current 'Artists Up Front...Street' series, and her show opens at its Bermuda House Lane gallery tomorrow. Her chosen media are acrylics and oil pastels, and she will exhibit approximately 20 pieces. The themeless show will include predominantly Bermudian subjects, as well as scenes from the artist's recent travels in Canada, New York, Mexico, and Munich, Germany. Ms Wooley's participation in Masterworks' Festival in the Garden art show last year, in which she won the People's Choice award and third place in the Adults category, led to her current exhibition. For further information see the Bermuda Calendar or call 295-5580.
Hansa Productions play at City Hall
Hasana Productions play, 'Just Say It', is now underway at City Hall theatre. Written, produced and directed by Patrice Frith Hayward, its last performance is on Saturday
Set in the early summer of this year, the plot involves a married couple who allow their unmarried friends and neighbours to live with them while renovations are being carried out on their house. They all quickly learn that making assumptions results in things being taken for granted, and the creation of major problems in friendships and relationships. They are constantly surrounded by friends and relatives, and everyone gets a lot off their chests by the time the renovations are completed.
The cast includes popular comedian Bootsie, Lauren Perinchief, Tyrone Smith, Roddy Nesbitt, Tina Duke, Nikita Robinson, Ryan Bean and Gina Davis.
Evening performances begin at 8 p.m. sharp, and Saturday's matinee begins at 4 p.m. sharp.
Due to the mature theme of the production, children under 16, including babies, will not be admitted under any circumstances. Anyone turning up with a ticket and attempting to bypass this rule will not be given a refund.
Tickets ($25) are available at True Reflections, Cessi's Boutique in Somerset, and City Hall box office from 12 noon to 2.30 p.m including Saturday. For further information see the Bermuda Calendar.
