SUMMARY:An Evening with Peter Stark
DESCRIPTION:Join us as we welcome Peter Stark to the store for an author talk and book signing! We can hardly keep copies of his previous book Astoria on the shelves. This new book promises to engage readers as well. \n\n \n\nTHE LOST CITIES OF EL NORTE: CORONADO’S QUEST\, THE UNCONQUERED WEST\, AND THE BIRTH OF AMERICAN INDIAN RESISTANCE.\n\nWith the backing of the Spanish empire in 1540\, Francisco Coronado set out for El Norte Misterioso to subjugate its people\, steal its gold\, and seize the land. Instead\, Coronado encountered the true power of the American West––complex Indigenous societies\, brutal deserts\, starvation\, cold\, and countless other hardships that claimed 90% of his party’s lives. \n\nCoronado and his people traversed 2\,500 miles of unmapped terrain\, ranging across the present-day U.S. states of California\, Arizona\, New Mexico\, Texas\, Oklahoma\, and finally Kansas. They were the first Europeans to gaze upon the Grand Canyon and the Rocky Mountains; made first contact with the Puebloan peoples; crossed the Sonoran Desert and the Great Plains\, where they encountered endless herds of bison and the nomadic tribes who followed them. After leading the largest exploring cavalcade ever assembled in the New World\, wearing his gilded armor and bobbing plume\, Coronado retreated back to Mexico City two years later accompanied only by a hundred or so hangers-on and carried on a litter\, a broken man. America’s Southwest and Plains would remain unconquered for the next 300 years.\n\nAuthor of NYT bestseller Astoria\, Peter Stark puts his thrilling and diligent historical narration towards Coronado’s quest and some of the earliest examples of Indigenous resistance. He is a National Magazine Award nominee and contributor to Outside\, where he originally chronicled his Lugenda adventure. His work has also appeared in Smithsonian and The New Yorker. He is the author of Last Breath and Driving to Greenland and the editor of an anthology\, Ring of Ice. Stark lives in Missoula\, Montana.

SUMMARY:Late-Night TV Comedy Writing: Monologue Jokes Workshop
DESCRIPTION:For the first time\, TC Media (Thurston Community Media) is bringing a professional television writers’ room to Olympia. The organization announces its Spring Comedy Writing Intensive led by veteran television writer\, director\, and producer Brian Kahn. \nThe first in-person class\, “Late-Night TV Comedy Writing: Monologue Jokes\,” drops students directly into a fast-paced\, working writers’ room. Participants write topical monologue jokes based on current events\, learn formal joke structure\, and experience real-time punch-up. Selected jokes are performed and recorded in TC Media’s studio. \n“Joke writing is a craft\, and craft can be taught\,” says Kahn. “When students understand the mechanics\, why a setup earns a laugh\, why a punchline lands or doesn’t\, something clicks. Then they see their own material performed and recorded\, and the learning accelerates fast. I’m all about education by doing. I’m also all about baked goods\, so if anyone brings scones to class\, you’re getting an A.”

SUMMARY:Theater Artists Olympia presents "Anna Considers Mars"
DESCRIPTION:In Ruben Grijalva’s Anna Considers Mars – a play part science fiction\, part family drama\, and part hilarious comedy with a dark streak – Anna faces the possibility of a life-long dream to go to Mars while bumping up against a host of moral dilemmas here on earth. Anna is hopeful that there\, with a human species attempting to start over\, she can start over too. Now she just has to get her hands on a golden ticket. Anna Considers Mars is a crazy\, compelling\, complicated\, and comedic view of where we may be headed\, in the not-so-distant future\, when human habitability on Earth is critically threatened by climate change.  \n\n\nWHERE: The New Oly Theater at 412 Jefferson St SE (In the former Johansson Dance Center) \nWHEN: April 24th to May 9th\, Friday/Saturday at 7:30 p.m.\,  (Saturday May 9th 2:00 p.m. & 7:30 p.m.) Sundays at 2:00 p.m. Tickets $20. at olytheater.com – Friday April 24th is $20. or Pay What You Can.
