Copper Country Home Educators ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"A Harpo" presentation at the Portage Lake District Library this Monday evening.

On Monday, October 27, at 6:30 p.m., the young and young at heart will be treated to an original Vaudeville style performance by singer and composer Ariel in "A Harpo."

The show is based on the original Vaudeville and Broadway Theatre entertainer Harpo Marx (1893 – 1964). Ariel invites audience participation as the history of the famous performer is explained and demonstrated through skits, costumes, props, and live harp music. A short video scene from an original Harpo movie will also be shown, and participants may play the harp after the presentation.

Ariel wrote this family friendly act and performed it at the Calumet Theatre Vaudeville event for six weeks. She has appeared at various community events, fairs, parades, fundraisers, nursing homes, grand openings, and private events. This interactive program is for the fun loving of all ages.

Everyone is invited to attend library events and presentations are free.
