Sonnambula – October 27th at 4 pm.

Blood Relations
By Sharon Pollock
Lizzie Borden took an axe,
And gave her mother forty whacks,
When she saw what she had done,
She gave her father forty-one.
Did you Lizzie? Lizzie did you? Lizzie Borden will not say. Acquitted of the brutal murders of her father and stepmother, for ten years Miss Lizzie has held her tongue, will she finally tell the tale?
This riveting psychological murder mystery is based on the true story of Lizzie Borden, who may or may not have killed her own blood relations in Fall River, Massachusetts, in 1893. The murder remains unsolved.
Blood Relations is an electrifying play that grips you from start to finish.
Directed by: Roxanne Rosenblatt.
Cast: Chrisan Herrod, Brian King, Pam Landon, Lisa Safran, Darlene Sherwood.

Opening Reception at 6 PM.
González Gallo Cultural Center, Chapala

An exhibition of paintings, poetry, drawings, sculptures, and installations presented as a symbolic journey through the inner world. The symbolic surrealism of the work explores archetypal images of the collective psychic world, while also presenting the author’s research into the process of transformation inherent in artistic creativity.
The exhibition is the culmination of a 40-year endeavor, which invites the viewer to discover the psychological and spiritual processes inherent in the creative impulse intrinsic to every human being.
It will include art from three important aspects of its expressions: consciousness, unconscious, and the superconscious
