From the sensual Bolero, to the ethereal La Bayadere, to the fun of Somebody with music by Queen, this show has something for everyone.

Good Theater’s production of Underwater Guy
April 2-13
Writer/producer, Steve Underwood describes:
“I love being underwater. Something called to me seven years ago, at age 50, to learn more about free diving, so I took some classes with world champion Martin Stepanek. I was surprised to discover that I have really big lungs! Back in Maine, I started filming in lakes, ponds, rivers and streams. I immediately got hooked. Eighty bodies of Maine water later, I’ve gathered some beautiful HD footage, and my travels have taken me as a far as Hawaii and the Caribbean. This show mixes underwater footage and other visual elements with my own “underwater stories”, as told by a number of colorful characters. I’ve had a lot of fun creating this show. I hope you’ll drop by the theater and dive in with me…”

John Gorka, St. Lawrence Arts benefit concert
April 6
“John Gorka is an honored icon of folk tradition. Energetic acoustic music that is not a trend, not a fad, but an expression of everyday life, is his trademark. John’s rich baritone voice and unique songcraft weave a magical spell that can only be described as ‘Gorka.’ Now with this, his 11th studio album, he returns to his roots with So Dark You See, his most compelling and traditional album to date. It has been widely praised as some of John’s finest work.”
