Hans Schmitt-Matzen
Presented by Cheekwood Botanical Garden & Museum of Art at Cheekwood Botanical Garden & Museum of Art March 24-May 27, 2012 In Cross-Reference Hans Schmitt-Matzen and his collaborator Gieves Anderson pay tribute to the spatial experience of being in a library.

THE ODD COUPLE by NEIL SIMON
Presented by Chaffin's Barn Dinner Theatre at Chaffin's Barn Dinner Theatre April 26-May 27, 2012 Simon's play centers on a pair of desperately mismatched roommates--one sloppy and one neat--who are arguably the most memorable pair of characters that the successful playwright has ever written. Felix Ungar, a neurotic fusspot news writer, and Oscar Madison, a slovenly sports journalist. The laughs are non-stop in this classic hit from one of America’s greatest comedy writers.

The Trishas with Ruston Kelly
Presented by 3rd and Lindsley Bar and Grill at 3rd and Lindsley Bar and Grill May 27, 2012 THE TRISHAS
The four principal members of Austin’s The Trishas would have you believe that they’re not blood related. But a DNA test might be in order. True, their individual bios may support their claims of having all had separate lives before meeting each other; but to hear them sing together, you’d swear they were harmonizing from the womb.
Then again, sometimes luck and fate sing in perfect harmony, too, and uncontested magic just happens...
