"Miracle Tomato," an original play by Connecticut native Jessica Cerullo, drew a responsive crowd to the A.A. Fredericks auditorium Saturday night. Her poetic play shed light on the tomato's journey through history, as well as its many connections to everyday life.

The Maryhill Museum of Art celebrated the work of one of its founders Saturday with “Dancing with Loïe,” an all-day event ending with an evening of dance at The Dalles Wahtonka High School.
LoïeFuller’s experimentation with costume and lighting design produced mesmerizing choreography that is still reconstructed by artists today.
The performances included productions of the dances “La Noir” and “Dance of the Elements” by Jody Sperling and her company, Time Lapse Dance.
Sperling, a Fuller interpreter and dance scholar, gave a lecture at Maryhill and showed several slides with images of Fuller — a whirling mass of fabric, a woman’s form concealed by sheer white silk and colored beams of light. Sperling’s presentation showed the evolution of Fuller’s work from frivolous entertainment to captivating spectacle.
