You Can't Take it With You
Tycoon Anthony P. Kirby fully
expects that his son Tony will
follow in his footsteps, but Tony's
only real interest is in his
secretary and fiancée Alice. His
parents are appalled that he
wants to marry a stenographer but to humour
him agree to dine with her family. This is
doomed from the start, as they are a collection
of free spirits with little visible means of support

The Curious Savage
The Curious Savage, written
by John Patrick, is a comedic
play about Ethel P. Savage, an
elderly woman whose
husband recently died and left her
approximately ten million dollars. Contrasting
the kindness and loyalty of psychiatric patients
with the avarice and vanity of "respectable"
public figures, it calls into question conventional
definitions of sanity while lampooning celebrity
culture.

-----ROAD TRIP-------- Thursday April 13 (7:30 P.M.) $20 ROAD HOUSE SERIES….Memphis Soul Meets Chicago Blues. A Tribute to Stax and Chess Records. Featuring the artistry of Chuck Berry.
The evening will be dedicated to the late-great Father of Rock 'n' Roll, Chuck Berry. There will be a special musical tribute to the rock 'n' roll icon as a highlight of the show.
When the icons of Sun Records in Memphis left the label bound for major national success, the authentic and inventive feel of the rock 'n' roll movement went across town in Memphis to Stax records and studios where neighborhood artists would find a home. They included Aretha Franklin, Otis Redding, The Staple Singers, Rufus Thomas, and rock's first fully integrated band, Booker T and the M.Gs. Meanwhile, throughout the 50s and into the 60s, Chicago's Chess Records became home to Sun Records discovery, Howlin' Wolf. Muddy Waters, Etta James and Chuck Berry were creating records that would soon influence the likes of The Rolling Stones, The Beatles, Cream, Janis Joplin and Jimi Hendrix. Chess was the cradle of not, only Chicago blues, but of the next step in rock 'n' roll that would forever change the sound during the turbulent 60s. Join us for an evening celebrating the great music that came from this near forgotten era of rock 'n' roll. Some of California's finest Americana and roots artists will be joining us. They include the Roadhouse's artist-in-residence and host, Patrick Carrico, Nick Berk, Aireene Espiritu, Coyote Moon, Duane Thorin, Levi Petri, Pam Loe, Chad Watson, Ed Tree, Neil Rosengarden and Debra Dobkin Reservations: (626) 798-6236 between 10 A.

Rea Nagel – Mixed Media Artist
As a native of very flat Illinois, my fascination
with mountains and the ocean grows daily since
I moved to California many years ago. Since
Southern California has a growing season that
is 12 months long, the variety of flowers and
plants I can paint is endless.
Many of my paintings are watercolor, but I also
mix the use of acrylics, inks, collage, and
pastels. Most of my paintings are a combination
of all these media. whatever gets my vision
across to the viewer
I love to draw and have many, many sketch
books filled with the things I have seen from the
passenger seat of the car. I usually use my
sketches as the basis of a painting. I enjoy
blending colors and believe that nothing is a
solid tube color and mix my colors on the paper
to get the wanted results. Most of my paintings
have several versions of the same scene done
until I decide on the composition. To me
composition and values are the what makes a
painting worth looking at.
I am involved with many art club and Topanga
Canyon Gallery being involved in multiple art
shows at a time.
After retiring from many years of teaching in
Burbank, I missed the contact with students and
began teaching part time at an adult school in a
community centers and Beverly Hills Adult
School. I was teaching at Viva Gallery until it
closed and now I teach at Carter Sexton Art
Supply Store.

When local educator Brian Leff took over the GO Jazz Big Band, he gave it a unique, three-part identifier. For their spring concert this year, the band takes its slogan literally as the GO Jazz Big Band presents: Basie, the Beatles, & Beyond.
The band invites you to swing hard through Basie favorites like Blues in Hoss’ Flat and Fancy Pants, revel in the great melodies of Beatles hits like Norwegian Wood and Can’t Buy Me Love, and explore the mysterious outer
limits of Beyond. But just what is Beyond? According to Leff, it ranges from Bobby Darin to Bjӧrk, with side trips to wild Celtic dance and a severe phobia of rotary
telephones. The GO Jazz Big Band is a Santa Clarita Valley treasure featuring some of the best musicians in Southern California. This is a hard-charging ensemble in the tradition of the Buddy Rich Band and the Tonight Show Orchestra that also keeps an eye toward the exciting future of Big Band music. Terrific soloists, a great rhythm section, blazing horns, and vocalist Steve Lively all combine to make this a truly special event.

A fundraiser for The Domestic Violence Center of SCV in honor of Sexual Assault Awareness Month. Kelly’s Lot is donating their
performance for this event. You don't have to come from Memphis or the Mississippi delta or New Orleans to be a killer blues band. One of those blues bands hails from Southern California. Kelly Zirbe is a fantastic vocalist and her band is called Kelly's Lot. Their new CD Bittersweet opens with "About Her," which begins with percussion, and there is a brief moment at the beginning that makes one think of Los Lobos' "Kiko And the Lavender Moon." It's a cool tune, with an interesting vibe, and it
features some wonderful work by Bill Johnston on clarinet. Yes, it's quite a bit different from earlier work by this band, but the blues are still present in Kelly's vocals. Your ticket proceeds will help will help those who have lost nearly everything regain a sense of independence and stability. Musical performance by Kelly’s Lot FREE Cd with ticket purchase.
