The Calamari Sisters will be taking the Barrows-Civic Theatre over for their clam bake this weekend.
Sisters Delphine and Carmela will be instructing, informing and entertaining audiences with the intricacies of the Italian tradition. This Franklin show, full of culinary-inspired song and dance, will begin at 7:30 p.m. Friday. There will also be another showing at the same time on Saturday. Tickets cost $20 and can be purchased by visiting the theater website at www.barrowtheatre.com or by calling (814) 437-3440.
These crazy performers first graced the Franklin stage back in 2012 with “Cooking with The Calamari Sisters.” Audiences back then were first introduced to their blend of musical comedy and live cooking. Interaction with the audience became a staple of their shows too, which followed suit with 2013’s “Christmas with The Calamari Sisters.”
It’s likely that if you go, you could get a sample of the food as well as the comedy. Jim and Cathe Miller, of the Main Street Market in Polk, will provide all of the ingredients and supplies actors Dan Lavender and Jay Falzone will use on stage.
Over at 3973 State Route 257, the Christian Life Academy will be hosting its art show and open house from 6:30 to 8 p.m. Friday. It’s free to the public. You’re welcome to visit the classrooms and talk with teachers too. A small fee will only be required if you would like to participate in the ice cream social portion of the event. More information for the open house and art show can be obtained from Tracy Walter at tracywalter15@gmail.com and (814) 676-9360.
CU Movies on Main will be bringing Star Wars to the university theater this weekend! “The Force Awakens,” the seventh installment in the beloved sci-fi franchise, will be showing at 7 and 10 p.m. Friday and Saturday.
For Family Day and to celebrate the Little Sibs program, a double-header of movies will take place Saturday afternoon. “Hotel Transylvania 2” will air at 1 p.m. and will be followed by “The Force Awakens” at approximately 2:45 p.m. These two films are for one ticket price for kids and adults alike.
