Performing View By Kaye Osborn
March is full of theatrical opportunities for the whole family. The Stanislaus Literacy Center’s Spotlight of Reading Fundraiser was a smash hit! It was wonderful to raise awareness and support for a worthy cause. I enjoyed the chance to perform with a talented cast and crew. The performing arts make our city vibrant and exciting and arts in the school create talented and high performing students.
So let’s see what is being offered in our area this month.
