June 13: Salon! You’re On!

Last Salon Until Fall

Attention: If you’ve been wishing, intending, hoping to come to one of the Salons someday…better come to this one June 13. It’s our last of the Winter-Spring season as we take a break for the summer and present again in the fall.  This line up is a fine array of literary, storytelling, singing and physical theater performers.

Featured Performers:

Al Manalo, Fil-Am Stand up Comedian:
Back from Metro Manila malls, killer punch lines in the form of Mongolian throat singing, he’ll perform feats that have never been attempted…until now!

Elaine Muray, Storyteller:
Beneath the cloth, behind the mask: one body, one thousand characters.

Nanci Gaglio, Screenwriter/Playwright:
“Jose Comin’ This Way”.  It’s about a hurricane, Jesus and who saves who?

Gary Lapow, Singer/Songwriter:
From the deeply moving to the hilarious, from the New York folk music scene, to SNCC Freedom Singers (Civil Rights Era), to Malvina Reynolds, Gary offers a musical perspective of an older, seasoned lover of life.

Eth-Noh-Tec, Kinetic Story Theater
Ancient metaphor, modern messages.

FEATURED ARTISTS:

RUTH FRASER: a world traveler, weaver of wit and wisdom, entwines and envelops our listening with the richness of language and the gifts of the world through storytelling.

VALERIE SOE: an image maker, moving us through thoughts, statements of culture and the challenges of identity as she explores the Asian American experience through her film-work.

GABE JOHAL DOMINGUEZ: whether strumming his guitar or pedaling his bike, he brings alive the message of Green Activism with movin’, groovy and singing. Hearing him, you can’t help but to “Shake Your Peace!”.

BELMONDO: Musician Songwriters Nicholas Ng and Slaven Svetinovic conjured the title for this acoustic pop duo one random evening, inspired by the French Actor, Jean Paul Belmondo. They will share original music with such lyrics as:  ”my body is a cage that keeps me from dancing with the one i love but my mind holds/not holds the key”

…And, of course, ETH-NOH-TEC will weave moving bodies, telling voices, theatrical stories of ancient Asian myths, metaphors with modern messages!
