This Saturday the Penticton Tune-Agers are back with their spring concert, Anything Goes.

This Saturday the Penticton Tune-Agers are back with their spring concert, Anything Goes.

This concert will include songs and orchestral pieces that will evoke many memories, and you will likely find yourself singing along and tapping your feet.

The concert is at Penticton United Church at 2 p.m.

Coming to the Cannery Stage next Thursdays is Many Hats Theatre second production of 2015.

Shooting Star opens Thursday, April 9 and will run until May 2. Shooting Star is a bittersweet romantic comedy about the middle days of our lives, and how we got there.

Snowed in overnight at a middle-America airport, college lovers Elena Carson and Reed McAllister have an unexpected and life-altering reunion.

Elena has stayed true to her hippie-ish, counter-culture path, while Reed has gone predictably corporate and conservative. As the night gives way to laughter, banter, remembrance and alcohol, Elena and Reed revisit a past that holds more surprises than they imagined — and a present that neither of them could have predicted.

Showtimes are 8 p.m. Thursday, Friday and Saturday with a 2 p.m. Sunday matinee. Tickets are available at the Wine Country Visitors Centre or by calling 250-276-2170. You can find out more about the rest of their 2015 season by visiting their website www.manyhatstheatre.com or “liking” them on Facebook.

Later in April the Penticton Chamber Theatre, who are well-known for their annual productions of Shakespeare, will be presenting Twelve Angry Jurors at the Shatford Centre.

The Shatford Centre has a great calendar of events on their website, www.shatfordcentre.com and this calendar is a great source of information of cultural and artistic events in Penticton and Summerland.

Our own local Arts Council also has an event calendar on the News page of summerlandarts.com.

David Finnis is the publicity chair and past president of the Summerland Community Arts Council, P.O. Box 1217, 9908 Main St., Summerland, B.C. V0H 1Z0.
