SUMMARY:Goodbye\, Hello: Providing Consistent and Loving Care\, Even if You Can't Be a Stay-at-Home Parent
DESCRIPTION:Goodbye\, Hello: Providing Consistent and Loving Care\, Even if You Can’t Be a Stay-at-Home Parent\nThursday\, May 29\, 7:30 – 9pm \nWe can’t all be stay-at-home parents\, and our kids – even babies – can thrive spending time with several caregivers.

SUMMARY:The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time
DESCRIPTION:The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time\n\n\nFriday\, May 23 – 24 and 30-31\,  8 – 10:30pm\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe play was first produced by the National Theater in the UK and on Broadway won the 2013 Tony Award for Best Play. It tells the story of 15-year-old Christopher\, who has an extraordinary brain: He is exceptional at mathematics but ill-equipped to interpret everyday life. He has never ventured alone beyond the end of his road\, he detests being touched\, and he distrusts strangers. His discovery of the neighbor’s dog Wellington\, speared with a garden fork\, sets him on a journey of “detecting” which goes well beyond who killed Wellington. He uncovers his family history\, learns his strengths in surprising ways\, and also reveals how difficult it can be to live with someone who doesn’t fit our expectations of “normal” behaviour. At a time when the very concept of diversity is being undermined in some places\, recognizing the challenges and potential of a person who would now be labelled as “neurodiverse” is important to us. \nCurious Incident features MCT veteran actors\, Mathew Chipman\, Helene Simkin Jara\, Sonia Motlagh\, Brad Roades\, Wyatt Troxell\, and Jackson Wolffe\, as well as newcomers to MCT\, Mark Matthews\, Molly Meyers\, LeAnne Ravinale\, and Megan Stewart. \n\n\n\n\n\nVisit Event Website \n\n\n Get Tickets  Price:   $20.00 to $25.00\n\n\n\n\nEvent Contact: Mountain Community Theater\, Peter Gelblum\, pbgelblum@gmail.com\,  831-366-4777

SUMMARY:The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time
DESCRIPTION:The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time\n\n\nFriday\, May 23 – 24 and 30-31\,  8 – 10:30pm\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe play was first produced by the National Theater in the UK and on Broadway won the 2013 Tony Award for Best Play. It tells the story of 15-year-old Christopher\, who has an extraordinary brain: He is exceptional at mathematics but ill-equipped to interpret everyday life. He has never ventured alone beyond the end of his road\, he detests being touched\, and he distrusts strangers. His discovery of the neighbor’s dog Wellington\, speared with a garden fork\, sets him on a journey of “detecting” which goes well beyond who killed Wellington. He uncovers his family history\, learns his strengths in surprising ways\, and also reveals how difficult it can be to live with someone who doesn’t fit our expectations of “normal” behaviour. At a time when the very concept of diversity is being undermined in some places\, recognizing the challenges and potential of a person who would now be labelled as “neurodiverse” is important to us. \nCurious Incident features MCT veteran actors\, Mathew Chipman\, Helene Simkin Jara\, Sonia Motlagh\, Brad Roades\, Wyatt Troxell\, and Jackson Wolffe\, as well as newcomers to MCT\, Mark Matthews\, Molly Meyers\, LeAnne Ravinale\, and Megan Stewart. \n\n\n\n\n\nVisit Event Website \n\n\n Get Tickets  Price:   $20.00 to $25.00\n\n\n\n\nEvent Contact: Mountain Community Theater\, Peter Gelblum\, pbgelblum@gmail.com\,  831-366-4777
