Amarillo entertainment briefs for the week of Aug. 28 – Amarillo Globe-News

Exhibit, “Quinceañera Traditions,” now open at PPHM

CANYON — Experience the historic and symbolic meaning of the quinceañera at the Panhandle-Plains Historical Museum during “Quinceañera Traditions,” the newest textile exhibit on display at PPHM now through February 2023. It will feature stories from those in the Panhandle region about the tradition and three generations of ‘quince’ celebrations.

“As a rite of passage, a quinceañera, is a celebration of food, family, and faith that encompasses both the old and the new. Quinceañera Traditions celebrates the traditions surrounding a fifteen year old’s journey from girl to woman,” a news release says.

“PPHM is excited to celebrate the quinceañera and its unique importance to the people of our area.” said Deana Craighead, Curator of Art. “Quinceañera Traditions tells stories from our community and has been met with tremendous enthusiasm. Over these many months of planning, I have been overwhelmed by the people I have met and their incredible openness and generosity. We would especially like to thank our exhibit sponsors Dean Boyd, Los Barrios de Amarillo, Telemundo and Amarillo National Bank. I encourage the public to visit the museum to experience it for themselves.”

Located on the campus of West Texas A&M University, PPHM features more than 285,000 square feet and over 2 million artifacts dedicated to preserving this area’s past.

‘Fantastic Visions’ exhibit on display at AMoA

The exhibit, “Fantastic Visions: Surreal and Constructed Images,” is on display at the Amarillo Museum of Art (AMoA) now through Sept. 4. 

Drawn from private collections, this exhibition showcases the work of artists and photographers who embrace the surreal and challenge reality through creatively constructed images and unique perspectives. Real and imaginary figures inhabit worlds that hover between the sublime and visceral, according to a news release. 

“Shana and Robert ParkeHarrison’s images offer a mysterious narrative filled with constructed mechanical devices and architecture that investigate human interactions with nature. Israeli artist Michal Rovner pushes her ethereal images of anonymous individuals and non-specific locations to the point of near abstraction that are saturated with emotional resonance,” the release says. “The works from Dutch photographer Teun Hocks exist between photography and painting. His large-scale, hand-colored gelatin silver prints are humorous and surreal scenes that are staged self-portraits. The artist often portrays himself in tragic, but comic situations resigned to acceptance and defeat within the constructed narrative. Photographs from Vik Muniz’s series’ Pictures of Junk and Pictures of Chocolate are compositions of ordinary materials transformed and reconfigured into an image that is then photographed by the artist.”

Additional artworks by artists such as Matthew Brandt, Nick Simpson, German photographer Elger Esser, and Russian-born American artists Rimma Gerlovina and Valeriy Gerlovinj, among others, are included in this exhibition.

AMoA is located at 2200 South Van Buren on the Washington Street campus of Amarillo College. Museum hours are 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Wednesday through Saturday and 1-5 p.m. Sunday. For additional information, visit www.amoa.org, email amoa@actx.edu, orcall 806-371-5050 or 806-371-5392 (weekends).

Parking is available in the #5 (north) and #6 (east) lots. Handicap parking

ALT presents ‘Guys and Dolls’

Amarillo Little Theatre, 2019 Civic Circle, presents “Guys and Dolls” Sept. 8-25.

Hailed as the perfect musical comedy, this award-winning classic gambles with luck and love under the bright lights of Broadway.

Set in Damon Runyon’s mythical New York City, Guys and Dolls is an oddball romantic comedy. Gambler, Nathan Detroit, tries to find the cash to set up the biggest craps game in town while the authorities breathe down his neck; meanwhile, his girlfriend and nightclub performer, Adelaide, laments that they’ve been engaged for fourteen years. Nathan turns to fellow gambler, Sky Masterson, for the dough, and Sky ends up chasing the straight-laced missionary, Sarah Brown, as a result.

“Guys and Dolls” takes us from the heart of Times Square to the cafes of Havana, Cuba, and even into the sewers of New York City, but eventually everyone ends up right where they belong.

Earle & the Dukes to headline at Starlight

Steve Earle & the Dukes with Ray Wylie Hubbard will be live at Starlight Ranch at 8:30 p.m. on Sept. 2.

One of the most celebrated singer/songwriters of his generation, Steve Earle first won an audience as a country artist, though it didn’t take long for him to demonstrate that designation was too narrow to embody all he had to say. Earle’s songs and his approach to performing them run the gamut from country to bluegrass to rock to folk to blues, and his populist lyrical stance, literate yet down to earth, finds room for the personal and the political, writing about the stuff of everyday lives as well as the forces that shape and define their existence.

He staked his claim to country stardom with 1986’s “Guitar Town”, and took on a harder rock sound on 1988’s commercial breakthrough “Copperhead Road”. He re-emerged in the mid 90’s stronger and healthier with two of his most critically acclaimed albums, 1995’s “Train A Comin'” and 1996’s “I Feel Alright”. Earle celebrated his love for bluegrass on 1999’s “The Mountain”.

Ray Wylie Hubbard. Poet. Trickster. Songwriter. Hubbard has twisted the mystic, the quixotic and the profane into songs for more than half a century on a journey that has crossed paths with the most acclaimed and quirky artists of our time.

With a love of life, characters and a certain funky beat, the Oklahoma-born, Texas-dwelling creative took part in the embrace of 2020’s “Co-starring” – the all-star project that included Don Was, Joe Walsh, Ringo Starr, Ronnie Dunn, Peter Rowan, Larkin Poe and Aaron Lee Tasjan, among others.

Tickets for this concert range from $27 to $65 (plus taxes and fees).

Friends of Fogelberg set for Sept. 9

The annual Friends of Fogelberg concert is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. Sept. 9, in the Globe-News Center for the Performing Arts, 500 S. Buchanan St.

Dan Fogelberg died from prostate cancer on Dec. 16, 2007. We miss him dearly.

It was Dec. 17, 2007 when Joe Ed Coffman (in pain of losing his favorite singer/songwriter to cancer) started calling musicians – Bob Hopkins and Woody Key – about putting together a concert benefit to play Dan’s music, and raise money for prostate cancer awareness.

Their first tribute concert was 2008 at the Globe News Center for the Arts. The concerts and dream continues raising over $300,000 in 12 years, and hosting Free PSA Blood Test to men in the Amarillo Panhandle. This allows men to be flagged – early detection for prostate cancer can save men’s lives.

All proceeds benefit Harrington Cancer and Health Foundation to provide FREE prostate screenings and prostate cancer awareness.

Tickets for this special benefit concert are $21 and available online at panhandletickets.com

Sublime with Rome to perform at Starlight

Sublime with Rome takes the stage at 8:30 p.m. Friday, Sept. 9, at Starlight Ranch.

“What I Got,” “Santeria,” “Wrong Way,” and “Doin’ Time” remain innovative staples from the ’90s alternative boom. But they accomplished even more: In less than a decade within the national limelight, the laid-back Long Beach trio spawned an entire genre — fusing reggae grooves, punk grittiness, ska energy, back porch folk introspection, and hip-hop swagger.

Selling more than 18 million albums to date, the music remains timeless — a rite of passage for misfit listeners who refuse to color within the lines of conventional genre.

Sublime with Rome came back with “Blessings”, their 2019 album. With Rome Ramirez on lead vocals and original Sublime bassist and co-founder, Eric Wilson anchoring the group, Sublime With Rome is armed with a new album, along with drummer Carlos Verdugo, that makes a real statement… their statement.

Tickets for this show range from $40 to $125 (plus taxes and fees).

Trevino brings comedy to civic center

Steve Treviño brings his America’s Favorite Husband tour to the Amarillo Civic Center at 8 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 10.

Treviño shares hilarious observations on fatherhood, husband-hood, and modern life-hood at large.

He locks into an undeniable rhythm fueled by straight-shooting honesty and a whole lot of heart. He appeals to audiences on the most relatable level by fitting right into their families.

Among many skills, he can “speak wife” fluently. He takes pride in his ability to assemble his own swing sets, slides, and backyard playground projects—neglecting to “call the guys” Amazon offers at $500 a pop.

This identifiable approach affirms his status as one of the country’s fastest-rising comics, viewed over 175 million times, selling out shows coast-to-coast, amassing over 1.1 million social media followers, and headlining specials for Amazon, NETFLIX, Showtime, and more.

Tickets to the comedy show range from $30 to $37 (plus taxes and fees) and are available online at panhandletickets.com

Queen tribute benefits Family Care Foundation

Join us as Queen Legacy, a tribute to Queen, takes the stage at Starlight Ranch at 8:30 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 10.

Queen Legacy has been dubbed the most authentic Queen tribute in Texas with all the vocal power and raw energy of the real band. You’ll feel like you’re back in the 70s watching Queen work their magic – delivering the full package: the vocal power, the raw energy, and the stage persona & theatrics of the legendary Freddie Mercury.

Join in for a night of fun and live music benefitting the Family Care Foundation.

Tickets for this benefit concert range from $15 to $35 (plus taxes and fees) and are available for purchase online at https://ift.tt/hKFr27v

Toadies return to Starlight Ranch

Toadies with special guest Drakulas are set to perform live at Starlight Ranch at 8:30 p.m. on Sept. 15.

Best known as the creators of the 1995 grunge staple “Possum Kingdom,” Fort Worth’s Toadies found success during the alternative rock boom of the ’90s with crunchy yet hooky guitar-based music that put a fresh spin on hard rock. With tunes influenced by the Pixies and guitars that were powerful but melodic, the Toadies made a splash with their major label debut, 1995’s Rubberneck.

On Sept. 15 at Starlight Ranch, the band will be playing its entire “Rubberneck” album from start to finish.

Tickets for this outdoor concert are range from $20 to $40 (plus taxes and fees).

The Beach Boys are led by Mike Love and Bruce Johnston, who, along with Jeffrey Foskett, Christian Love, Tim Bonhomme, John Cowsill, Keith Hubacher, Christian Love and Scott Totten continue the legacy of the iconic American band.

John Stamos will be playing with The Beach Boys on their Amarillo date, it was announced this week. A gifted drummer, singer and musician, Stamos has occasionally performed with the Beach Boys since 1985, making this show extra special. With a career spanning 30 years, Stamos has become one of the most revered television stars of his generation. Stamos won the 2016 People’s Choice Award for “Favorite Actor in a New TV Series” for his role on FOX’s Grandfathered, and was awarded TV Land’s ‘Timeless Icon’ Award, presented to him by long-time friend and mentor, Garry Marshall. Also in 2016, ‘Fuller House,’ a multi-camera comedy spin-off of iconic comedy ‘Full House,’ premiered, with Stamos serving as a producer and guest star. The series which has been reported by Symphony Advanced Media to be the most watched TV program anywhere on streaming or traditional TV was recently renewed for its third season.

Grammy-winning songwriter Bruce Johnston joined The Beach Boys in 1965, replacing Glenn Campbell, who filled-in for Brian Wilson, on vocals/bass, when he retired from touring. Highly regarded in his field, Johnston’s vocal work with such legendary artists as Elton John and Pink Floyd firmly established him among rock’s elite artists.

Captained by Mike Love, The Beach Boys play an astoundingly busy schedule of concerts, averaging 150 shows a year, ranging from sundrenched summer festivals to gala New Year’s celebrations and special events across the globe.
