August Art Walk scheduled at the Sidney and Berne Davis Art Center
Artwork of Carol McArdle featured
The Sidney & Berne Davis Art Center presents the More Crinoline Production of "Final Stage" for August's Art Walk. The one-act performances will be at 7 p.m. and 8:30 p.m. Friday, Aug. 7. The plays are free and open to the public. Also on display will be the landscape and abstract art of local artist Carol McArdle (www.carolsheart.com).
The August Art Walk's free theater at the Sidney and Berne Davis Art Center premieres "Final Stage," an adaptation of Anton Chekhov's "Swan Song," by local playwright and actor Louise Wigglesworth.
After celebrating her final performance, her "swan song," a little too heavily, the aging diva Leda Largo has fallen asleep on stage. When she wakes deserted by her friends in a dark, cold theater, she finds herself alone with only her life's triumphs and disasters, her ghosts, and a cheeky homeless woman who secretly lives in the Green Room. In this company, Leda takes on the fact of her mortality, and deals with it in the only way a true artist can.
Ms. Wigglesworth plays the role of Leda and Mahli Howell appears as Celeste.
