Over the last few months, TCT has been on a path of reorganization and renewal. The spring schedule of plays has been totally revised, and new plays and ideas are in the works. Fiddlers Crossing has brought one-person concert-theatre pieces to Tehachapi, with performances by blues master Guy Davis and Celtic harpist Patrick Ball. With the success of those shows, the venue has been considering bringing in a series of one-person concert-theatre pieces. It's natural, then, that the community...

From the same team that brought you the hilarious comedy "Red Velvet Cake Wars", comes the new TCT comedy production of "Christmas Belles", playing this holiday season. A church Christmas program spins hilariously out of control in this southern farce about squabbling sisters, family secrets, a surly Santa, a vengeful sheep and a reluctant Elvis impersonator. It's Christmas-time in the small town of Fayro, Texas, and the Futrelle Sisters are not exactly in a festive mood. But in true Futrelle...

I never cease to be amazed at the things I find in closets. Recently I had a whole patio full of old timers laughing and talking and remembering. They had all come home for the weekend for the Old Timers Picnic and they always land on my patio when there is nothing else to do except laugh, eat, and maybe have a beer or two. One of my late husband’s friends said he remembered that Ed had some old photos which, of course, everyone had to see. Up on the closet shelf was a box I had forgotten about....

Storytelling in music is as old as melody. Although today's pop music tends to focus more on "beats" than ballads, musical storytelling is still alive and well in acoustic music.

Berkley Hart, returning for their second appearance in the venue Sept. 12, is certainly in the top tier of musical storytellers.

Juni Fisher is no stranger to these parts. She has already given three sold-out concerts in Fiddlers Crossing and will ride into town July 10 for her fourth appearance. Fisher is the real deal – a Western singer who actually IS a cowgirl. Many of her songs are about women rodeo riders of bygone days, and she can be funny and poignant at the same time. Fisher grew up horse crazy on a San Joaquin Valley citrus farm, achieving 4-H and FFA honors, listening to the music of Marty Robbins, Joan Baez and Burl Ives, and learning Western songs from h...
