SUMMARY:Old Academy Players presents Disenchanted!
DESCRIPTION:Disenchanted! By Dennis T. Giacino\nDirected by Annie Hnatko \nApril 25th\, 26th; May 2nd\, 3rd\, 4th\, 9th\, 10th\, 11th\, 2025\nFriday and Saturday at 8:00 p.m.\, Sunday at 2:00 p.m. \nPoison apples and lost slippers are just the beginning. The original storybook heroines are none-too-happy with the way they’ve been portrayed in today’s pop culture\, so they’ve tossed their tiaras and have come to life to set the record straight. Forget the princesses you think you know — these royal renegades are here to comically belt out the truth. Received an “Outstanding Off-Broadway Musical” nomination (Outer Critics Circle Awards) and a “Best New Off-Broadway Musical” nomination (Off-Broadway Alliance). \nContent Warning: Contains adult language and content.

SUMMARY:America’s Best Wine Region-The Wine Tasting Class
DESCRIPTION:Over the past five years\, one wine region has quietly earned top honors—named the best wine region in America four times. Surprisingly\, it’s not Napa or Sonoma. It’s Columbia Valley in Washington State. \nLong a favorite among sommeliers\, this region is producing some of the boldest\, most compelling wines in the country. If you’re a fan of Napa’s structure\, Paso Robles’ power\, or Sonoma’s polish\, Columbia Valley should be on your radar. \nThese wines are big\, expressive\, and unapologetically delicious—the kind of bottles that American wine lovers reach for again and again. It’s time to discover what the pros already know. \nJoin us for a deep dive into Washington State’s dynamic wine country—a guided tasting that reveals the power and nuance of the Pacific Northwest. You’ll explore a range of exceptional varietals\, each shaped by the region’s striking diversity of climate and soil. \nYour journey will span the vast Columbia Valley\, wind through the fertile Yakima Valley\, and culminate in the acclaimed vineyards of Walla Walla. As the second-largest wine-producing state in the country\, Washington boasts over 50\,000 acres of vines and more than 900 wineries\, offering a rich palette of bold reds and vibrant whites. \nMore than just a tasting\, America’s Best Wine Region is an invitation into the stories\, people\, and places behind the wines. Whether you’re a seasoned wine lover or just beginning your journey\, this masterclass offers a fresh perspective on one of the most exciting and underappreciated wine regions in the world.
