Strolling through The Find on 6 in Johnston, I came across a beautifully, intricately carved, circular, wooden plaque. It stared at me as I was staring at it, intrigued by its detail, and I picked it up for only $10! I was surprised; the price was a bargain and I just had to have it. […]

The Ten of Stones and the Father of Stones are our messengers for the month of October.

Do you ever have those seasons where you become hyper fixated on a specific interest for a time?

A few years ago, I found myself drawn to the Afrofuturist movement […]
Power to the playwrights who can effortlessly weave together disparate themes and characters, something Ro Reddick manages deftly with Cold War Choir Practice, making its world premiere at Trinity Repertory Company.
