Okay, Elvis fans, how would you like to see the #1 tribute act in the country? Well, Peter Alden will be “in the house” at the Wayne Densch Performing Arts Center on Saturday, October 30.
Performing music from all Elvis’s eras in a dynamic, fast-paced, Vegas-style show, Alden is accompanied by a 7 piece band called “Suspicious Minds.” Appearing around the world and with the “Legends in Concert” for over 12 years, this act has Elvis walking and singing among us once again. So, if you love “The King,” then this is the place to be Saturday night!
If not, you better check out Ain’t Misbehavin’ at the Wayne Densch Performing Arts Center in Sanford. The show opens tomorrow and runs through September 19.
Built in 1922, the theater is the perfect place to go for a date night. Perhaps have dinner at one of Sanford’s fantastic restaurants (Hollerbach’s Willow Tree serving German fare or Two Blondes and a Shrimp) before hitting an art gallery such as the Jeanine Taylor Folk Art Gallery or even one of the numerous antique stores. Then mosey over to the theatre to catch the show.
Did you see Studio One Young Beast Society last night on America’s Got Talent? Did you vote for them? Well, you should have because they’ve got Orlando connections: The group placed second in January’s Seminole’s Got Talent at the Wayne Densch Performing Arts Center, and Parramore Kidz Zone’s DaQuan Barnes Williams is part of their dance group.
The Parramore Kids Zone (PKZ) is part of the Mayor’s Children and Education Initiative and is modeled after the well-known Harlem Childrens Zone. Here’s what the PKZ website says is their mission:
“PKZ aims to lower teenage pregnancy, juvenile crime and child abuse rates among children in this neighborhood, and also improve their school performance. How will PKZ do this? By investing in things that make a difference in children’s lives – such as quality early childhood education, after school programs, programs that build family economic success, youth development programs for teenagers, access to health care, mentoring, and more. PKZ will make Parramore a GREAT place for kids.”
So, now that you know, perhaps you will vote for them! Go Studio One Young Beast Society!
