$20 Adults, $18 Seniors/Students, $10 Youth
The Odd Couple
Neil Simon’s classic comedy opens with a group of the guys assembled for cards in the apartment of divorced Oscar Madison. And if the mess is any indication, it’s no wonder that his wife left him. Late to arrive is Felix Unger who has just been separated from his wife. Fastidious, depressed and none too tense, Felix seems suicidal, but as the action unfolds Oscar becomes the one with murder on his mind when the clean-freak and the slob ultimately decide to room together with hilarious results as THE ODD COUPLE is born.

Jacqueline Nicholson
Jacqueline is a Wisconsin singer/songwriter with Iowa roots. She performs at bluegrass festivals, pubs, churches, art fairs, galleries and coffee shops in Wisconsin, Iowa and Colorado and enjoys creating music at informal jam sessions. Jackie’s sound, a mix between old country, bluegrass and folk with a June Carter flair, has been influenced by the music of Emmy Lou Harris, Michael Martin Murphey, Dolly Parton, Joni Mitchell, John Hartford, The Carter Family, Keith Yoder and Bob and Christi Black, to name just a few. She has recorded one CD with Keith Yoder called “Wrapped Up in a Song” in 2012. Her latest original single is called “Trapper’s Daughter” recorded in 2015 with Jon Peik, her guitar teacher and mentor. Jackie draws inspiration from being in nature, history, art and her family. Jackie’s music provides a healing experience for her audiences and “she really knows how to deliver a song”… her music is from the heart!
The Stellanovas
January 29 @ 4:00 pm – 6:00 pm
at the Delafield History Center – 426 Wells Street, Delafield, WI 53018
The Stellanovas play “cafe jazz”–intimate, swinging, original, dynamic music accompanied by unique instrumentation… violin, accordion, cello, ukulele, hawaiian guitar, drums, electric guitar, and vocals. Originals plus inventive interpretations of classic jazz standards and eclectic pop. Chris Wagoner, Mary Gaines, Ed Fila, and Erik Radloff are The Stellanovas.
“Multi-instrumentalist Chris Wagoner and his wife Mary Gaines are masters of string swing music. They call it “cafe jazz”, but that seems too calm. Their music is equal parts Hawaiian luau and Parisian wedding party. The love they bring to their music is as apparent as the precision with which they make it.” Andy Moore, producer of WI Public TV’s “30 Minute Music Hour.
Refreshments will be available prior to the concert and during intermission.
Tickets are $17 for adults. $15 for seniors at the door. (Note – There is a $2 discount for advanced sales – online or at our office).
