DanceBrazil  This globally renowned company offers a uniquely
electrifying fusion of traditional and contemporary Afro-Brazilian dance, modern
choreography, and capoeira, the acrobatic, dance-like martial art form. DanceBrazil’s
vibrant, exuberant concerts are feasts for the eyes and ears, as colorfully costumed,
graceful and powerful dancers perform mesmerizing, often gravity-defying moves to the
infectiously bouncy rhythms of native musical accompanists. As The Washington Post raves,
“There can’t be much anywhere to match the strength, flexibility, speed, and
allure of these fabulous dancers.”

This colorful and dramatic saga revolves
around a strong-willed Virginia farmer who tries to keep his family neutral during the
Civil War. However, the Union troops and the Confederates see things only in Union blue
and Confederate Gray. The family is inevitably swept up in the conflict. Their story is a

the people.

I Remember Mama
by John Van Drufen
Mama, with the help of her husband and Uncle Chris, brings up the children in their
modest San Francisco home at the turn of the century. A sweet and capable manager, Mama
sees her children through childhood, manages to educate them and proudly watches as one of
her daughters begins her career as a writer. Mama's sisters and uncle furnish a rich
background for a great deal of comedy and a touch of tragedy while the doings of the
children keep eveyone in pleasant turmoil. No description can do justice to the rich
characterizations that fill the author's canvas.
