The Collaboration Center's 4th annual family fall festival and community resource fair promotes inclusion and disability awareness while bringing together families, service providers, and community members. There will be a community resource fair, family fun activities, a petting zoo, delicious food, and great music.
This annual event is a wonderful way to connect, learn about the many disability resources available in Southern Nevada, and celebrate together in a festive, welcoming atmosphere. No charge but they'd like you to reserve your spot. Do that at "Get Tickets," where you can also make a donation.
The College of Southern Nevada's Jazz Singers present the 50th edition of Vocal Jazz Solo Nights. There will be selections performed by the ensemble and each member will get to, you guessed it, solo. Swing, bebop and R&B will be featured. According to Dr. Mark Wherry, the tradition of VJSN began in the fall of 2000 as a way for jazz students to sharpen their solo singing and gain a greater appreciation for jazz music.
"In any given semester, we work on six or seven songs to perfection. With every member singing solos, the ensemble is exposed to at least an additional twelve compositions. That's quite a few songs over the course of many semesters," Dr. Wherry said. "Some of our alumni are hosting their own shows on the Strip, performing on cruise lines, and even touring in Europe. In many cases, Vocal Jazz Solo Nights is where they got their start,"
Performances will be in Jay Morrison Recital Hall (Building H, Room 122) located in the Fine Arts Department on the North Las Vegas campus.
Experience a profound and deeply intimate journey through the ordinary moments that make up an extraordinary life. Thornton Wilder's Pulitzer Prize-winning masterpiece, set in small town Grover’s Corners, is brought to life by students, staff, and faculty. The classic drama asks us to truly see and appreciate the fleeting beauty of "everyday life."
Under the visionary direction of CSN Theatre Faculty member, Adrienne Showker, this staging transcends traditional theatre. Showker explores non-traditional and metatheatrical performance devices, deliberately breaking the "fourth wall" and employing stark, unconventional techniques that draw attention to the act of performance itself. This raw approach promises to create a powerful bond between the performers and the audience, resulting in a truly unforgettable viewing experience that refreshes a timeless classic.
There's a matinee performance on November 16th at 4 p.m.
From the creators of ABANDON, Urban Death Vegas marks the 20th anniversary of the original Urban Death, a long-running cult classic created by Zombie Joe and Jana Wimer at Zombie Joe’s Underground Theatre in Los Angeles. An ensemble cast takes the audience on a provocative, yet wordless, theatrical journey through the lens of all that is horrifying about Las Vegas and the times we live in.
