SUMMARY:The Wisdom of Eve
DESCRIPTION:The Wisdom of Eve\nThe Lord Stirling Theater Company will perform “The Wisdom of Eve” in the English Barn Theater at the Farmstead Arts Center\, 450 King George Road\, Basking Ridge\, NJ. “The Wisdom of Eve” will open on Friday\, June 7\, at 7:30PM\, with additional performances on June 8 at 7:30PM\, June 9 at 2:00PM\, June 14 at 7:30PM\, June 15 at 2:00PM and 7:30PM. Tickets are $25 general admission\, $23 for seniors (65 and over) and students\, $20 for Farmstead Arts members\, and $15 for children under 12. Tickets may be purchased online at https://farmsteadarts.org/what-we-do/theater.html or at the door (cash only).\nThe Wisdom of Eve is a tale of ambition\, jealousy\, and fame in New York’s theater world. Adapted from the story by Mary Orr\, on which the film All About Eve and the hit musical Applause were based\, The Wisdom of Eve is an engrossing story of an unscrupulous ingenue’s rise to Broadway stardom. When we first meet Eve Harrington\, she is standing in the rain by the stage door of the theater in which the renowned Margo Crane is starring in her latest long-run hit. Before you know it\, she’s inveigled Margo’s best friend\, Karen\, to get her an invitation to meet the great actress herself. From there\, it’s a short step for the clever Eve to become Margo’s personal secretary and then her understudy. Did we mention blackmail? Yes\, that’s in there\, too! Eve is determined to achieve Broadway stardom and then a Hollywood career\, no matter what\, even if it means leaving the wreckage of her friends’ trust behind her.

SUMMARY:Monty Python's Spamalot
DESCRIPTION:Monty Python’s Spamalot\nLovingly ripped off from the classic film comedy Monty Python and the Holy Grail\, MONTY PYTHON’S SPAMALOT retells the legend of King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table\, and features a bevy of beautiful show girls\, not to mention cows\, killer rabbits\, and French people. Did we mention the bevy of beautiful showgirls? The 2005 Broadway production won three Tony® Awards\, including Best Musical\, and was followed by two successful West End runs. The outrageous\, uproarious\, and gloriously entertaining story of King Arthur and the Lady of the Lake will delight audiences as they search for the Holy Grail and “always look on the bright side of life.”

SUMMARY:Hand-Drawn Photo Lithography with Victoria Beck
DESCRIPTION:Hand-Drawn Photo Lithography with Victoria Beck\nSaturday\, June 8th\, 10am-2pm \nMembers: $130\, Non-Members: $145\, Materials: $37 \nPhoto-lithography or ‘photo litho’ uses aluminum plates coated with a UV-sensitive emulsion to reproduce an image. The plates are simple to process and store and an easy way to print an edition of lithographs as compared to ball ground plates or stones. This technique is excellent for capturing detail in drawings with subtle shading and also painterly watercolor/wash effects without the need for etching. During this course\, participants will learn the various materials used for drawing onto a transparency\, exposing the drawing onto a plate\, plate development\, and how to print their plate. \nAbout the Instructor: \nVictoria Beck is a Lehigh Valley-based artist whose lifelong interest in drawing led her to pursue a career in the arts. She received her BFA from Kutztown University\, where she discovered a love of printmaking and had the opportunity to study lithography under Master Printer Tim Sheesley. She has been awarded several research grants to explore printing with both traditional and experimental techniques. Since graduating in 2016 she has spearheaded collaborative print projects while printing professionally for artists such as Faith Ringgold and Ify Chiejina through Raven Editions\, MK Kabrito\, and Evan Summer. \nRegistration deadline is Sunday\, June 2nd at Midnight. \nAbout Frontline Arts: \nFrontline Arts is 501(c)(3) non-profit organization located in Central NJ with a mission to connect communities through socially engaging arts practices rooted in papermaking and printmaking. The organization supports in-house and mobile educational programs and provides a communal space with shared equipment for printmakers and papermakers across the State of New Jersey and larger regions. The organization also offers community-building events\, a variety of artist studio services\, and groundbreaking exhibitions.

SUMMARY:The Wisdom of Eve
DESCRIPTION:The Wisdom of Eve\nThe Lord Stirling Theater Company will perform “The Wisdom of Eve” in the English Barn Theater at the Farmstead Arts Center\, 450 King George Road\, Basking Ridge\, NJ. “The Wisdom of Eve” will open on Friday\, June 7\, at 7:30PM\, with additional performances on June 8 at 7:30PM\, June 9 at 2:00PM\, June 14 at 7:30PM\, June 15 at 2:00PM and 7:30PM.

Tickets may be purchased online at https://farmsteadarts.org/what-we-do/theater.html or at the door (cash only).\nThe Wisdom of Eve is a tale of ambition\, jealousy\, and fame in New York’s theater world. Adapted from the story by Mary Orr\, on which the film All About Eve and the hit musical Applause were based\, The Wisdom of Eve is an engrossing story of an unscrupulous ingenue’s rise to Broadway stardom. When we first meet Eve Harrington\, she is standing in the rain by the stage door of the theater in which the renowned Margo Crane is starring in her latest long-run hit. Before you know it\, she’s inveigled Margo’s best friend\, Karen\, to get her an invitation to meet the great actress herself. From there\, it’s a short step for the clever Eve to become Margo’s personal secretary and then her understudy. Did we mention blackmail? Yes\, that’s in there\, too! Eve is determined to achieve Broadway stardom and then a Hollywood career\, no matter what\, even if it means leaving the wreckage of her friends’ trust behind her.

SUMMARY:Monty Python's Spamalot
DESCRIPTION:Monty Python’s Spamalot\nLovingly ripped off from the classic film comedy Monty Python and the Holy Grail\, MONTY PYTHON’S SPAMALOT retells the legend of King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table\, and features a bevy of beautiful show girls\, not to mention cows\, killer rabbits\, and French people. Did we mention the bevy of beautiful showgirls? The 2005 Broadway production won three Tony® Awards\, including Best Musical\, and was followed by two successful West End runs. The outrageous\, uproarious\, and gloriously entertaining story of King Arthur and the Lady of the Lake will delight audiences as they search for the Holy Grail and “always look on the bright side of life.”
