Calendar

DEC. 20

This is your last weekend to see “August: Osage County,” a grand, gripping new play which tells the story of the Westons, a large extended clan that comes together at their rural Oklahoma homestead when the alcoholic patriarch disappears. It’s playing at the Mad Cow Theater Dec. 20-22 at 7:30 p.m. and final day Dec. 23 at 2:30 p.m.

DEC. 21

“Rare Exports: A Christmas Tale” tells a dark tale of Christmas. It’s the eve of Christmas in northern Finland, and an ‘archeological’ dig has just unearthed the real Santa Claus. But this particular Santa isn’t the one you want coming to town. It’s playing two nights only at the Enzian, at 11:59 p.m. on Dec. 21 and 22.

DEC. 22

It’s a Gallery Walk with “Power of Two” artists Martha Lent and Larry Moore. This group exhibition highlights some of Central Florida’s most renown visual artist couples. Explore with us what it is like to have two creative minds living and working together. Are these artists influenced by their partner’s works? Do they create collaboratively or individually? Regular museum admission applies. A&H members receive free admission.
