    logo_redearththeatreSedona AZ (November 5, 2018) – Red Earth Theatre returns to Tlaquepaque on 7.30pm on Thursday November 15th with a special ‘Gratitude Show’ in the Chapel at the Patio de la Camilla, a collage-piece of poetry, prose, music and thoughts about gratitude drawn from a variety of cultures and eras, and featuring many of Red Earth Theatre’s regular performers and some new faces.

    Performers include Sandi Schenholm, Carmen Bedoya, Connie Patrick, Janie Rian, Joan Westmoreland, Terra Shelman, Cathy Ransom, Nancy Melmon, Kate Hawkes, Dave Belkiewitz, Dylan Marshall, Michael Cosentino, Murray Archimedes and musicians Jeanie Carroll, Riley Whitaker, Steve Keiffer and Leah Bee.

    Back in July, Wendy Lippman (Tlaquepaque owner and property manager) and Kate Hawkes (Red Earth’s Producing Artistic Director) got together to add live theatre to the current roster of live music and other events. The third Thursday of each month brings a series of simple stripped-down theatrical performances, featuring local performers and a variety of live forms. Future dates include: Dec 20 – a new take on ‘A Christmas Carol’ and in 2019 in Jan 17, Feb 14, March 14, April 18, May 16 and June 20. If you are a theatre performer with an idea for a show please contact Red Earth Theatre at info@redearththeatre.org or by phone at 938-399-0997.

    A nonprofit company founded in 2013, Red Earth Theatre provides a platform to inspire and nurture many voices through live performance, and encourages dialogue exploring the human experience in our diverse communities throughout the Verde Valley. Producing new work, old favorites, reader’s theatre and working collaboratively with many organizations to include the performing arts in creative forms, Red Earth Theatre aims to provide opportunity for everyone to experience live performance.

    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.
