Weekend to Weekend Pick 9/9/10: The Cafe

The Cafe performed by The FINEST! Youth Performance Troupe. This is a ”dynamic play about a troubled teen who goes to live with “Auntie”, a poetry cafe owner. Music and poetry propel the audience, along with the teen, through interactions with African American poets of the past and present.”

Friday, September 17, 2010 8 – 10:30 PM
Saturday, September 18, 2010 2 – 4:30 PM
F. Scott Fitzgerald Theatre, Rockville Civic Center Park (Information and Directions)
Event Fee: $15 Adult, $10 Senior (60+), $10 Child (12 & under)

Music, dance and the spoken word promise to delight audiences of all ages.

If you are wondering about The Finest! Youth Performance Troupe, it’s “a multicultural youth performance group of actors, dancers and steppers performing plays and appearing in Rockville area parades and community events. But most importantly, The Finest! is a fitness program with an emphasis on healthy, productive and alternative ways for youth to spend non-school hours.”

During the past three years, I’ve often highlighted events in and around Rockville. For a year and a half I researched and wrote the Weekend to Weekend listing of all the happenings in Rockville before we asked Helen Triolo at Rockville Living to automate the process and encouraged everyone to post event announcements on her wonderful calendar. For a while I picked the best of the week to highlight here on Rockville Central. Now I’m back at it again with the W2W Pick.
