    logo_sedonamuseum2Sedona AZ (October 16, 2018) – The Sedona Heritage Museum presents poet and author Michael Peach in a special and spooky performance of “Haunted History” on Sunday October 28 at 3:00 p.m. in the historic Fruit Packing Shed.

    Come spend an autumn afternoon at the Museum and hear ghostly tales – some of which have their origins right in our own back yard!  Peach will share true stories about ghostly encounters and Halloween fun.  The show will include an original piece called “Peoria’s Runaway Pumpkin”, based on Peoria, Arizona’s Halloween surprise of a 25-foot-tall, 300 pound pumpkin gone rogue. 

    photo_michaelpeach9Also on the play bill are four of Mike’s original poems: “Little Bill” about the unsolved alleged murder of Bill Fredricks at the Van Deren cabin; “The Hauntings of the Red Ghost”, a true story about a 19th Century Arizona monster; “The Cactus Killer”, a true story of murder and revenge in the Arizona desert; and “The Ghosts of Wilson Canyon” based on the death of bear hunter Richard Wilson in 1885. Plus, Mike always throws in a surprise or two and new works.

    An award-winning actor, playwright and historian Michael Peach is especially good at bringing to life history and his subjects.  But, he isn’t afraid to also spin some tall tales, too.   Informative and entertaining, Mike’s shows have long been a favorite of university, state and national parks, and historically-oriented audiences.

    The Symbolism of Jan. 6

    By Tommy Acosta
    Don’t mess with symbols. Just ask author Dan Brown’s character Robert Landon. The worth of symbols cannot be measured. Symbols make the world-go-round. Symbols carry the weight of a thousand words and meanings. Symbols represent reality boiled down to the bone. Symbols evoke profound emotions and memories—at a very primal level of our being—often without our making rational or conscious connections. They fuel our imagination. Symbols enable us to access aspects of our existence that cannot be accessed in any other way. Symbols are used in all facets of human endeavor. One can only feel sorry for those who cannot comprehend the government’s response to the breech of the capital on January 6, with many, even pundits, claiming it was only a peaceful occupation. Regardless if one sees January 6 as a full-scale riot/insurrection or simply patriotic Americans demonstrating as is their right, the fact is the individuals involved went against a symbol, and this could not be allowed or go unpunished.
