Putumayo's
Latinas: Women of Latin America hits the Silva Concert
Hall this week. This will be a hot evening of soulful,
inspirational Latin American music, with contemporary
and traditional tunes, sung with mucho gusto by
three divas – Totó la Momposina from Columbia,
Mariana Montalvo from Chile and Beló Vellosa (pictured)
from Brazil. Guaranteed to
make you feel good! See Sunday calendar.
From
three women to one, locally-born singer/songwriter Elizabeth
Cable presents a one-woman show in celebration of
the 9th anniversary of Tsunami Books. Free music + a
great performer = a wonderful time. See Saturday calendar.
Think
you're up to re-writing Shakespeare? Tempest, being performed
this month at the Lord Leebrick Theatre, is an original adaptation
of the Bard's last play. Haunting, lyrical, with themes as diverse
as love and mortality…who could resist? See Friday calendar.
