Recital Series presents Pennington at play
What: A solo recital from FLC Professor of Music John Pennington
Where: The Unitarian Universalist Church, 419 San Juan Dr.
When: Fri., Feb. 15, at 7 p.m.

When John Pennington plays a little night music, it’s time to buy a ticket.

Professor of music at Fort Lewis College, Pennington will give one of his extraordinary solo recitals at 7 p.m. this Friday night, Feb. 15, at the Unitarian Universalist Church. The inimitable director of percussion studies will perform works by French, Spanish and American composers plus three pieces that celebrate the night: “Moonchild” by Keith Jarrett, the aria from Bach’s Goldberg Variations, and “Night Music,” by Sean Daniels.

Pennington’s range of instruments includes simple frame drums on which he’ll play works from the Middle East, Ireland and Egypt. He’ll also play the Concerto for Vibraphone and Orchestra by Emmanuel Séjourné. If you haven’t heard Pennington use extended techniques on the vibraphone, you’ll be introduced to the otherworldly sounds via a violinist’s bow and other unusual striking instruments. Pennington will play Ravel’s Vocalise-Etude, two songs by Manuel de Falla, and an arrangement for vibraphone from Suite Española by Albeniz. Three children’s songs for vibraphone and piano by American jazz great Chick Corea will have special appeal to the young and round out a varied program.

Pennington will be accompanied by pianist Marilyn Garst. Mary Pennington, a superb violinist in her own right, will play glockenspiel.

This is the second recital in a series sponsored by the Unitarian Church, where Garst is music director. For information call 385-8668.There’s plenty of parking in the church’s lot – and it’s plowed.

Acclaimed comedian
What: Rober Dubac’s “The Male Intellect: an Oxymoron?”
Where: The Community Concert Hall at Fort Lewis College
When: Sat., Feb. 16 at 6 p.m.

returns to Concert Hall

“Getting dumped has never been funnier,” or so says the advance notice for the acclaimed comedy stage show, “The Male Intellect: an Oxymoron?” Comic Robert Dubac brings the “Male Intellect” to the Community Concert Hall at Fort Lewis College this Sat., Feb. 16.

In a tightly written and skillfully enacted 90-minute comedic show, playwright and actor Robert Dubac attempts to answer the

age-old question, “What do women want?”  The show has played to sold-out houses throughout the country – including Durango in 2002 - and is lauded for its poignant, yet outrageously funny look at the battle between the sexes. 

“Although much of his act can’t be explored in a family newspaper, Dubac’s adventure through the mine field of male and female relationships is imaginative, hilarious and as refreshing as a tall, cold drink on a hot summer day,” wrote Sandra Dillard-Rosen, of the Denver Post.

As the show opens, the audience meets a very confused “Bobby.” He’s found the girl of his dreams, to whom he proposed, but she has dumped him. Why? Unable to answer this question he recalls some not-so-wise, but nonetheless hilarious, advice he received from five chauvinistic mentors. With a shrug of his shoulders, a hooding of his eyes or a crook of his neck, Dubac seamlessly transforms himself into these five alter egos, each of which offers their own brand of misguided advice.

Tickets for “The Male Intellect: an Oxymoron” are available on the web at www.durangoconcerts.com, by calling 247-7657, or at the Ticketing Offices in Durango at 7th and Main Ave. behind Magpies. Showtime is 7 p.m., with doors to the Spotlight Lounge opening at 6 p.m.

‘The Vagina Monologues’ return to Durango
What: Three performances of Eve Ensler’s play
Where: The Smiley Theatre, 1309 E. Third Ave.  
When: Feb. 14 & 16 at 7 p.m. and Feb. 17 at 3 p.m..

After yet another successful performance before capacity crowds last year, “The Vagina Monologues” are returning to Durango for three benefit performances. The “Monologues” take the stage at the Smiley Theatre on Feb. 14 & 16 at 7 p.m. and Feb. 17 at 3 p.m.

“The Vagina Monologues” have been performed in cities and college campuses across America. They have also inspired a dynamic grassroots movement (V-Day) to stop violence against women. Eve Ensler’s Obie Award-winning play gives voice to women’s deepest fantasies and fears, guaranteeing that no

one who reads it or sees it performed will ever look at a woman’s body, or think of sex, in quite the same way again. O Magazine lauded the “Vagina Monologues” saying, “By the end of the show, the audience has moved from slightly embarrassed to highly engaged, sometimes enraged and ultimately enlarged.”

Proceeds from the local performances will go to the Sexual Assault Services Organization, group that aids sexual assault victims, and other local crisis centers and shelters. The play will also be staged in conjunction with V-Day.

Last year, “The Vagina Monologues” raised more than $4,000 for local causes and sold out each night. Tickets for this year’s performances are available at the door and at the Fort Lewis College Union Building.
