Lee Street Cafe presents
“SONGS FROM THE STAGE”
November 19-21, 2009
Doors Open @ 6:45 pm Show Begins @ 7:30 pm

Lee Street Theatre will be transforming the Black Box at the Looking Glass Artists Collective into a night club for three evening of theater songs from seven of Salisbury’s finest singers. Lee Street Cafe presents “SONGS FROM THE STAGE”. Last February, we presented ‘Songs from Long Ago’ to Standing Room Only crowds over two nights. So for this production we’ve added an extra night and ask three gentlemen to join the ladies to sing some of your favorite stage songs. Joining the incredible voices of Becky Lippard, Carol Harris, Patsy Parnell, and Mary Ann McCubbins, will be the well known and highly talented gentlemen John Brincefield, Kent Bernhardt, and Bradley Padavick. Accompanying the singers will be pianist Matthew Brown. There will group numbers, as well as duets and solos.
Beer and wine will be available.
Lee Street Theatre is not set up to take reservations. So come early and enjoy the art gallery, or shop in the LGAC’s Artists Store.

Rowan Blues and Jazz Appreciation Night Nov. 13
On Friday, Nov. 13, the Rowan Blues and Jazz Society will be hosting an “Appreciation Night” to showcase Salisbury talent. Poets, musicians, and special guest performers will gather at the Looking Glass Artist Collective, 405 N. Lee St., from 7:30-10:30 p.m. Admission is free to the public.
Here is Friday’s line-up:
• Tony “T-lelo” Bowers will be playing an acoustic guitar set for the evening. He is from Mooresville, and sang with Vonica and the Mighty Blazing Stars for 15 years. He’s now pursuing a solo career.
• Tenisha Peek was born and raised in Salisbury, and graduated from Salisbury High. She began singing at the age of 3 in local children’s choirs, and began writing songs at the age of 13. She will sing a few solo songs and possibly a duet with T-lelo.
• Nathan Jones will share some of his poetry. He has performed in New York City and other well-known venues.
• Peace Logan was born in Chesapeake, Va.
“As a first-time performer and writer, I am growing under the wings of favor and learning to accept that my gift is not given to me to be used in vain, but to share, grow, and teach what God has scripted for me,” Logan says.
• Desere Cross is a senior at West Rowan High. She is the editor of the school’s newspaper, and is involved in community service, National Honors Society, student government, basketball, and track. In her down time she finds time for what she considers her passion: poetry. She has been writing poetry since elementary school and has been recognized as poet of the month at Central Library in Winston-Salem.
• Poet Linda Patterson was born and raised in Salisbury and has travelled the United States. She is the oldest of three chldren, and she collects turtles. She considers writing to be her passion.
