Talented
musician and songwriter Ani DiFranco comes through
town on her solo spring tour. Her style is always evolving,
from the folk punk of her early twenties to later work
with a five-piece band. Now she's playing solo again,
hitting audiences with feminist, political and heart felt
poetry. See Tuesday Calendar. 
Shakespeare's
festive comedy, Twelfth Night, tells of
shipwrecked, cross-gendered and star-crossed lovers.
