An Evening of “Genius”: Wining and dining with biographer Justin Martin at 610 Magnolia [Books]
It was a perfect evening for a leisurely walk. Hosted a mere stone’s throw away from our humble abode in Old Louisville, The Olmsted Parks Conservancy’s Meet Justin Martin event provided an excellent opportunity for my handsome date and myself to enjoy a stroll through the neighborhood. I’d imagine Olmsted would be pleased; his ideas of calming scenery, urban beauty and reflection through nature converged perfectly for our slow-paced, two block amble. Mature trees drape their heavy heads over the sidewalks; a riot of foliage carpets our path.&nbs

Kentucky Shakespeare Company burglarized; equipment stolen [Old Louisville]
Shakespeare was very prescient when he wrote, “More light and light; more dark and dark our woes!” For overnight, a lightboard and soundboard were stolen from the Kentucky Shakespeare Company tech booth behind the pavilion in Central Park, jeopardizing future performances, particularly those in the evening as night falls.
