HOW TO WALK IN HIGH HEELS With proper lessons and a lot of practice learn how to walk, sit, climb stairs with grace and confidence. This workshop will address many "high heel" pitfalls like walk‐ing on uneven sidewalks, subway grates, cobblestones without stumbling, twisting your ankle or worse yet, fal‐ling down. Other issues, such as avoid walking "knock kneed" or "stomping" with a flat foot. We have all wit‐nessed the H.S. graduations where young women cannot walk in their high heels and we watch hoping none of them will fall down. Here is a perfect opportunity to share mommy and daughter time together. I propose that you bring a good sense of humor and the desire to master your high heels for that job interview; H.S. reun‐ion; prom; wedding; and just because you like to wear heels. This program is open to women of all ages. Participants must provide their own heels; 3 inch heels or taller are ideal, and workout clothes for floor exercises ` Instructor: Mary Del Vecchio Day: Tuesday Time: 6:00‐7:00pm Location: Performance Space

Ballet dancers have the most lovely arms, stomachs, legs and feet.

THEATRE “”THE TRIAL OF THE BIG BAD WOLF”

by Joseph Robinette Grades 4‐7

Director: Fay Gerbes Assistant Director: Tom Kelley Day: Wednesday Time: 6:00‐7:00pm Location: Philipstown Depot Theatre Start Date: September 10 Fee: $295 Resident / $310 Non– Resident

TONS of great parts for older kids as well as younger ones! The Wolf: Villain or victim? The Three Pigs: Innocent or at fault? The Jurors (Miss Muffet, Bo Peep, Rapunzel and Humpty‐Dumpty, to name a few): Solid citizens or characters with a past? And what about Judge Wise O. Al? Is justice on his side—or does he have a secret to hide? Then there’s the media—a reporter, newscaster and town crier. Have they come to accurately report the proceedings—or to turn the courtroom into a media circus? And don't forget about the spicy Lawyers and the clever Prosecutor. And who is that surprise witness at the end? The answers to these profound questions and even more are revealed once and for all in this rollicking, fun‐filled, action‐packed trial‐of‐the‐century.

This popular play examines the guilt (or innocence) of the accused from different points of view, arriving at a surprising yet eminently satisfying conclusion in which no one escapes unscathed. It all ends happily ever after, of course, with the newly bonded Wolf and Pigs, along with the colorful characters of the jury and all of the others heading for a post‐trial party at the castle of Old King Cole.

Students will use improvisation and imagination to develop their characters. A true ensemble piece, this delightful comedy, with its intriguing story line and vivid characterizations, will appeal to audiences and performers of all ages.

ADULT PROGRAMS HOW TO WALK IN HIGH HEELS With proper lessons and a lot of practice learn how to walk, sit, climb stairs with grace and confidence. This workshop will address many "high heel" pitfalls like walk‐ing on uneven sidewalks, subway grates, cobblestones without stumbling, twisting your ankle or worse yet, fal‐ling down. Other issues, such as avoid walking "knock kneed" or "stomping" with a flat foot. We have all wit‐nessed the H.S. graduations where young women cannot walk in their high heels and we watch hoping none of them will fall down. Here is a perfect opportunity to share mommy and daughter time together. I propose that you bring a good sense of humor and the desire to master your high heels for that job interview; H.S. reun‐ion; prom; wedding; and just because you like to wear heels. This program is open to women of all ages.

Participants must provide their own heels; 3 inch heels or taller are ideal, and workout clothes for floor exercises
