Saw an incredible one woman show by Kathleen Gonzales tonight. Kathleen is from Haiti, and plays many characters in her story about returning to her homeland. It's a really powerful and compelling story. Do check her out.

did we talk about the Harris Teeter possibly opening in Novermber 2010 at First and M ST NE?
see, i add the link properly, then misspell "november". i can't win for losing. LOL.
Who cares about HT? They charge Whole Food prices without the quality. The sheen wears off in three months.
Hmmmm, there's a young "prodigies", or something like that, chamber orchestra today at 4:30. For $5, that sounds like a good value.
As for HT, it's good to have around when you need to move quickly. It's like Target vs. WalMart. Target's more expensive and so lines are shorter and it's less chaotic. It's nice to have that option when you just can't deal with the local Safeway and so are willing to pay the premium.
Thanks for posting this Elise! It really is an amazing festival with so many different types of performances and events...at a range of ticket prices...Really something for everyone...Hip Hop to opera...
If you have yet to visit the Atlas now is the time!
We are running a special today on two shows:
10 tickets to 2/21 7:30pm of Kathleen Gonzales' THE BRIDGE OF BODIES. Use promotion code: READY.
And also:
$20 tickets for the next 20 people to purchase tickets to either performance of AN EVENING WITH MARVA HICKS. 2/21 at 2PM and 7:30 PM. Use promo code: MARVA.
Order online only

I agree with Rob. I'd rather pay more at HT than go to the ghetto Giant or Safeway.
HT also has much faster check-out clerks, and actually staffs more than one person at the deli and other counters so you aren't waiting for 20 minutes. The quality of the fish and meat are way above what you get at Giant, and the prices aren't that bad if you have the HT card.
The promo code doesn't work for the Bridge of Bodies show, and no one is answering the phone at the Atlas.
Anon 6:09. I'm so sorry about that. I'm just seeing this now. I'm not sure what went wrong but I will find out.
!f you didn't get through or get a ticket please let me know offline. We can get you in this weekend or next at that discount...She added show to the final weekend.

Soul Searcher is disruptive and disrespectful.
This is a thread about a terrific arts festival at the Atlas. If he wants to start a discussion about Harris-Teeter or whatever pops into his head, he should start his own blog. It's more work than he thinks.
In the meantime, his stupid intrusions are the obnoxious equivalent of those jerks who walk up to a group having a conversation and interrupt. Why do they always think that they are so damned important or interesting?
Soul Searcher is rude.
Easy. An off topic post isn't going to kill anybody. Besides, the Harris Teeter is definitely in the right geographic region.
