Laurel Canyon, California has long been synonymous with some of the greatest songwriters of the late 1960s and early 70s. Among the artists living there and inspiring each other were Joni Mitchell, Carol King, Mamas and the Papas, Jackson Brown, Linda Ronstadt, Buffalo Springfield, and Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young. You’ll be treated to performances by Rob Brereton, Nick Patrone, Noelle Chave, Emily DeMasi, Missy Alexander, Bill Petkanas, George Mallas, and Susanna Marker. Feel free to don your love beads for this special evening of music and nostalgia.

“Frank Rosen a nontraditional woodworker who also uses wood for painting and sculpture. His work moves in different directions: geometric to flowing, flat to textural, colorful to subdued. Surprise and humor are also media in which he dabbles.”

Based on the beloved animated film, "Shrek the Musical" follows the journey of a cynical ogre who reluctantly embarks on a quest to rescue Princess Fiona for the villainous Lord Farquaad in exchange for reclaiming his swamp, which has been overrun by fairy tale creatures. Along the way, Shrek befriends a talkative Donkey and discovers that true beauty comes from within, as he and Fiona gradually fall in love. With clever humor, heartwarming songs, and a message of self-acceptance, the musical transforms the original story into a vibrant stage production that celebrates individuality, friendship, and the idea that everyone deserves to be appreciated for who they truly are.
