This long-running Off Broadway production that brought stardom to Bernadette Peters is a campy show based on the nostalgia of Hollywood musicals of the 30s. The New York Times called it “A Winner! A gem of a musical!” and NBC New York says “It’s delightful, and doesn’t take itself seriously for a minute…”
Dames at Sea is a tap dance-filled musical parody of the golden era of Hollywood musicals! Ruby heads to New York to become the next Broadway star, but after landing a job in the chorus, her dreams are almost shattered when the theatre is set for demolition. With the help of two sailors, the show is moved to their ship and when the leading lady becomes sick, Ruby has the chance to jump in and save the day! Hear Broadway Baby, Choo-Choo Honeymoon, Dames at Sea and more!
Based on the Academy Award-winning film of the same name, Finding Neverland tells the incredible true story behind the creation of one of the world’s most beloved characters: Peter Pan. Playwright J.M. Barrie struggles to find inspiration for his next work until he meets a beautiful widowed mother and her four young sons. Spellbound by the boys’ enchanting make-believe adventures, he sets out to write a play that will astound London theatergoers. With a lot of faith and a little bit of pixie dust, Barrie shares his journey to Neverland, where nothing is impossible and the wonder of youth lasts forever.

Wicked Walk is a collaborative project between the Foundation for Lee County Public Schools, the Sidney and Berne Davis Arts Center and Lee County Public Schools. The project highlights the talents of students and teachers within the arts programs in Lee County. The project is also being used to help develop funding, support and awareness for arts programs in our public schools.
Wicked Walk creates a tour through the Sidney Berne Davis Arts Center where participants interact and experience the visual and performing arts right before their eyes. The historic arts center is transformed for the event as high school fine and performing arts teams create site specific work exploring the theme for the year. This year’s theme gives teams the opportunity to explore movie, literature, musical theatre and music visual and performing art surrounding classic tales of horror. Interpretations may run the spectrum from comedic to melodramatic to romantic.
During the Wicked Walk event, students will perform in various areas of the Center as the audience tours through. Tours start at 15-minute intervals and groups perform either 5- or 10-minute presentations. There will be 13 building tours during the event.
All schools participating will receive a portion of the proceeds from the event based on the number of students and teachers involved.
Join us for our first Distinguished Speaker Event: ‘Alcohol – A History’ on October 24th! Our first topic will be on prohibition since October 28, 2019 marks the 100th year since prohibition was enacted.
We will journey from the beginnings of civilization and review how alcoholic beverages grew up across the world. We will explore alcohol consumption across the world and the how alcohol effects human behavior. We will also review the various constraints that over the years have been introduced to restrict the use of alcohol. Some have been successful and others, like prohibition in the US from 1920 to 1933, not only failed but gave rise to perhaps something worse; the growth of organized crime. For local lore, we will look enjoy stories of Whiskey Creek’s moonshiners and Caribbean rum runners. Local Distillery, Wicked Dolphin, will offer a signature cocktail to sip during the event and rum tastings for all attendees.
October 24th
6:00pm to 8:00pm
Light refreshments provided. The museum will also be open for exploration.
Cost: Members: $15
Non-Members: $20
Our Guest Speaker Adrian Kerr:
Born in England, Kerr is a Professor of Ancient Civilizations and Cultures and is the Associate Dean of Continuing Education at Edison State College. He has spent the last thirty years researching, writing and broadcasting on the Ancient Civilizations of Turkey, Greece, Venice, India, Persia, Afghanistan, Egypt, Iraq and Iran. Professor Kerr is described as “a leading historical populist”; he is a published author and regularly appears on television and radio, contributing to programs which focus on ancient history, culture and comparative religion. He is also in demand as a moderator for topical historical/political televised events and television/radio phone-ins. His work also regularly appears in the press particularly historical and travel journals and he provides the voice over for many museum tours.
Kerr is particularly well known and respected for the interactive popular talks he gives to inquiring audiences around the world and has been acclaimed for being able to present complex historical, political and religious issues in a straight forward, balanced and enjoyable manner. He is particularly noted for his ability to compress thousands of years of complex history into an enjoyable, often humorous, summary which leaves audiences focused on the main events. He is a guest lecturer at universities which include Columbia and Harvard, and museums internationally.
Kerr graduated from Leeds University before going on to conduct research in Iraq, India and Egypt. Earlier in his career he lived full time in India for three years and in Saudi Arabia for two years conducting research on the ancient history and religion of the great civilizations of the Middle East and Indian sub continent. He is a specialist on the development and interaction between these ancient civilizations and cultures. Kerr has a particular passion for the development of the architectural style and function of ancient temples, tombs, forts and palaces.
He is a published author; his recent books include “Ancient Egypt and us” 2008 and “KV-63, the untold story of the new tomb in the Valley of the Kings” 2010. He is currently working on his new book “The ascent of man” which revisits the major steps that led humans from cave dwellers to the space age.
