    logo_redearththeatreSedona AZ (April 9, 2019) – Red Earth Theatre is thrilled to be back in the beautiful arches of Tlaquepaque with live theatre at 7.30pm on Thursday April 18th at the Patio de las Campanas.  ‘Earth Delight’ is a collage-piece of poetry, prose, music and thoughts celebrating our beautiful planet and home, drawn from a variety of cultures and eras, and featuring many of Red Earth Theatre’s regular performers.

    Under the stars and graced by the ivy-covered walls of Tlaquepaque, this is one the Earth Month offerings around Sedona and Verde Valley this month. Visit www.VVearthday.com to see what else is happening.

    20190409_earth1‘Earth Delight’ features original words from Connie Patrick, Sharron Porter, Martha Entin and Sedona’s favorite story teller, Gary Every. Other readers include Mary Gladieux, Terra Shelman, Karla Stamp, and Larry Rosenberg who share the words of Dylan Thomas, Edward Abbey, Joanna Macey, Cheif Seattle, Naomi Klein, Pablo Neruda, Rachel Carson, Thomas Berry, Alice Walker and Evelyn Ames among others. We also hear a unique view of our earth from an astronaut.

    Sharron Porter displays some of her stunningly rich earth art pieces with their matching poems.

    Musicians Leah Bee, Trish Jahnke and Dan Dagget color the words with music and song including the beautiful ‘Gentle Arms of Eden’ anthem by Dave Carter and Tracey Grammer.

    Wendy Lippman (Tlaquepaque owner and property manager) and Kate Hawkes (Red Earth’s Producing Artistic Director) sat down last summer and brainstormed how to get some regular theatre orientated performance back to Tlaquepaque, adding to the current roster of live music and other events. Since September 2018 live performances have happened in the Patio de las Campanas or the Chapel on the third Thursday of each month.

    The simple stripped-down theatrical performances, featuring local performers and a variety of live forms, offer a range of spoken word materials from short plays, scenes, monologues, poetry, improv, music, dance and live art.  Future dates include May 16 and June 20, with a full production of Shakespeare’s Midsummer Night’s Dream in September.

    Find us at the Patio de las Campanas, behind the fountain in front of El Rincon Restaurant at 7.30pm on Thursday 18th. (Suggested donation $10.) Dress cozily, visit one of the restaurants nearby, and come bask in about 70 minutes where we can gather together to honor our planet, the only home we will ever know.  “The earth has music for those who listen.”-William Shakespeare – join us when we offer the music and words of those speaking for and of the earth.

    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.
