Enjoy the Show
September 29, 2022
There is nothing like nature showing off: wild waves, crazy cloud formations, yellow goldenrod and purple aster swaying in a roadside field. From the treetops a cacophonous burst of birds taking off in unison, on the pond a pair of swans and three cygnets gliding towards sunset. The show is free, the hours are friendly (open all day and night) and the location is the best, bar none: The Island. We hope you enjoy the show this weekend, and that you take advantage of a few other productions with limited engagements — including a new staging of Rodgers & Hammerstein’s Cinderella. For more on that and other events, keep reading, and be sure to visit The Complete Martha’s Vineyard Calendar for all the events coming up soon.
Island Theatre Workshop

Rodgers & Hammerstein’s Cinderella take place at 7 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 29 through Sunday, Oct. 2 at the Performing Arts Center in Oak Bluffs. There’s also a matinee performance on Sunday at 2 p.m., after which audiences can meet the cast.
On Thursday, Sept. 29, PathwaysARTS and the MV Public Charter School will present a
performance of Senegalese music and dance featuring master percussionist Aba Diop and dancer Bakary Fall. The setting is as unique as the cultural traditions: it takes place at the Tisbury Waterworks starting at 5 p.m.
The Martha’s Vineyard Poets’ Collective celebrates its 12th year with
a reading at the Martha’s Vineyard Museum in Vineyard Haven on Friday, Sept. 30, facilitated by MV poet laureate Jill Jupen. Members will read from works written in a variety of forms. The event will be held in the Rose Styron Garden at 5:30 p.m.
