ONLY AT CCG
In this beautiful world, each early morn
I open my eyes at break of dawn.
When the sun rises in the horizon,
My heart fills with contentment and satisfaction.
On each glorious day eagerly I come
With vigor and spirit, with enthusiasm.
The pounding of chisel is all I attend to,
Creating, sculpting, wood pieces ever new.
Each day that I spend in this engaging hobby
Carving, chiseling, sculpting hardwood tree
And then there is filing, sanding, varnishing
My arms tingling from insistent rubbing.
Deadlines to meet push me to complete
To finish two sculptures, trim and neat.
I know they will be judged by tough jury
At the carvers’ show sponsored by CCG.
So many pieces displayed at the competition
Give judges a tough time to make a decision.
No matter what place my entries receive
The verdict is fair and just, I believe.
Some pieces are tiny, tall, slender and shiny.
Others, big and rounded, their sizes vary.
Although carvers may disagree, and often they differ,
They always present the best they can offer.
And now my golden years have come at last,
I continue to carve, as I have in the past.
It is never too late to learn and to dare
To create something new, beyond compare.
—Jose Z. Sabroso

MUSICAL THEATER WEST PRESENTS DIRTY ROTTEN SCOUNDRELS
Broadway’s musical hit “Dirty Rotten Scoundrels” cons its way onto the Carpenter Center Stage via Musical Theatre West (MTW) for 13 performances July 8-24.
The production stars Broadway veterans Davis Gaines (“Phantom of the Opera,” “Camelot”) and Benjamin Schrader (“Book of Mormon,” “Avenue Q”) and Ovation Award nominee Rebecca Ann Johnson.
The show earned 11 Tony Award nominations, including “Best Musical,” “Best Book,” and “Best Score” and the Drama League Award for “Best Musical.”
Tickets are available at www.musical.org or by calling 856-1999, ext. 4. Tickets are $20 and up.
Dirty Rotten Scoundrels centers on two con men living on the French Riviera—the suave and sophisticated Lawrence Jameson (Davis Gaines), who makes his lavish living by talking rich ladies out of their money; and Freddy Benson, a small-time crook who swindles women by waking their compassion with fabricated stories about his grandmother’s failing health. After meeting, they unsuccessfully attempt to work together only to find that this small French town isn’t big enough for the two of them.
“Dirty Rotten Scoundrels” opened on Broadway in 2005 to rave reviews.
