GANG Features Photographers

April 19, 6:30-8:15 p.m.

Photographers Penny Orr and Gus Zimmerman will be the featured artists at the Geauga Arts Network Group (GANG) program at Heinen’s Cafe, 402 Center St. in Chardon. The program is free and open to the general public. No reservations are necessary.

The husband and wife team combine Orr’s love of gardening with Zimmerman’s life-long dedication to commercial photography to create dramatic close-up photos that capture the natural wonder we all feel when confronted with the exquisite complexity of flowers.

Their program will include a slide show of some of their images, as well as a sample “set-up” demonstrating some of the processes they use to control the photographic environment. To see more examples of their work, visit www.photosbypennyandgus.com.

Spamalot Opens at Geauga Theater

The Geauga Lyric Theater is closing its season with the zany Monty Python’s “Spamalot.” Based on the movie “Monty Python and the Holy Grail,” this hilariously irreverent comedy has gained a large following over the years.

The energetic show will run from April 15 through Mother’s Day, May 8. There will be no shows during Maple Festival Weekend, April 22-24, so be sure to enjoy the festival and to park in the Geauga Lyric Art Center’s lot at 106 Water St. The GLTG and CCAT get to split the proceeds for their organizations.

Tickets are $18 for adults, $15 for students and seniors, and $10 for children 12 and under. Call the box office at 440-286-2255 or visit www.geaugatheater.org.

The historic Geauga Theater is located at 101 Water St. Chardon.
