Polly Klaas Community Theater 417 Western Avenue, Petaluma, CA, United States

She’s never been to Florida.“The best example I have seen of a Neo-Trad band's sound being authentically anchored in old time music but extending it into new and entertaining directions.” —Founder, Clifftop Appalachian Stringband Festival Arts Alive is a free and family friendly event, concessions will be sold and all […]

West Side Stories Presents “In A Nutshell”

Polly Klaas Community Theater 417 Western Avenue, Petaluma, CA, United States

Description: Everyone has a story and now it’s your chance to tell it.  Every month there is a theme, hopefully that sparks a memory for you.  You put your name in a hat (an actual hat!) and 10 people’s names are drawn at random.  When your name is pulled you get 5 minutes to tell your personal true story.  At the end of the evening everyone votes by text for their favorite story of the night. If that’s you, you get $50 and will join the other monthly winners in December for our GrandSlam at the Historic Mystic Theater.  Sounds like fun, right?
