    1. Coronado Community READ Event: Peter Sprague Beatles Tribute Band Celebrate the finale of the 2023 Coronado Community READ with guitarist Peter Sprague as he leads his quintet on a magical mystery tour of Beatles classics along with Sprague’s unique jazzified arrangements, which start with the familiar and then sonically travel to new frontiers of jazz and improvisation. Melt when the intro guitar figure for “And I Love Her” kicks in, tap your toe to the funky vibe that “Norwegian Wood” takes, and sing along to the chorus of psychedelicized "Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds." The Liverpool Four goes polytonal! It’ll be a special afternoon! Project Hail Mary author Andy Weir is a huge Beatles fan; in fact, he dedicated the book to The Beatles! The band also plays a small but significant role in the book.

    1. San Diego Shakespeare Society Staged Reading: "Henry VI Part 2" King Henry is a child, so everyone tries to control him; Plantagenet and Somerset hate each other; after a war, Henry marries a woman he has never met; oh, and Joan of Arc is in it too. After Henry V’s death and while Henry VI is young, nobles rule England and fight the French, including Joan of Arc. As Henry VI becomes King, the noble houses begin to divide and take sides between York and Lancaster. The war with France winds down, and the nobles try to find Henry a wife and disagree about who Henry chooses. Kim Keeline is a writer and teacher who fell in love with Shakespeare when she was 12 and her parents took her to a production of Twelfth Night at the Old Globe. She eventually earned her Ph.D. in English Literature, specializing in Shakespeare and his time period. She gives lectures on the history and literature she loves through various groups and otherwise keeps busy.

    1. How to Make Orchids Rebloom We've all been there. We receive a beautiful orchid in full bloom as a gift. Then the flowers die, and there are no more blooms, and we wonder - do I hang on to this stick in a pot, waiting for it to re-bloom, and how long will it take, until we tire of waiting and toss the plant out. Well, good news - orchids can and do re-bloom, and attendees at this program will learn the secrets. Led by orchid expert Chuck McClung, who will also sell and sign copies of his book, How Orchids Rebloom. McClung holds a master's degree in botany and has worked in commercial greenhouses and retail nurseries to learn everything he could about plants. These days he leads seminars and workshops on gardening topics and advises people via garden and landscape consultations. His self-professed life's mission is to help others solve their gardening dilemmas.
