The Adirondack Regional Tourism Council announces the 2012 summer arts festivals and cultural events schedule. From annual heritage celebrations, to inaugural events rooted deep in Adirondack tradition ? discover the artistic side of the six million acre Adirondack Park this summer.
Take part in a revolutionary kind of play ? one where the audience participates in the actual story creation. Eric Lane, an award-winning playwright, will open his latest play, Filming O?Keeffe, up to the audience for comment on July 21 and 22 at the Charles R. Wood Theater in Glens Falls ? one of the region?s top Adirondack attractions. Audience members are invited to provide feedback during July?s readings via a post-show discussion and survey, which will be incorporated into Lane?s working script. The play follows Georgia O?Keeffe and Alfred Stieglitz?s often tumultuous relationship echoed in the lives of a modern artistic family who happens to live in Stieglitz?s former estate on Lake George.
This script-in-hand reading offers a rare glimpse into 2013?s My Summer Place ? a series of events, exhibits and activities planned in coordination with The Hyde Collection?s 2013 exhibition entitled Modern Nature: Georgia O?Keeffe and Lake George, June 14- September 15, 2013.
