SUMMARY:Camden Opera House's Blue Café: Abbie Gardner
DESCRIPTION:Named a “triple threat” by Bluegrass Unlimited\, ABBIE GARDNER has made a name for herself as one of the the only solo dobro troubadours in the country. Don’t let her infectious smile fool you\, beneath that radiant exterior lies the soul of a fierce and fiery slide guitar player. You might know her best from her work with Americana darlings Red Molly\, but Abbie Gardner centered her own gritty\, sweet tales of love and loss on her 2022 solo album DobroSinger. It reached #11 on the Billboard Blues chart. She’s a Kerrville New Folk Finalist (2025) and was nominated for Folk Alliance International’s Artist of the Year (2025). Her live show is truly unique – heartfelt vocals and warm stage presence\, backed up by top notch picking on an instrument that is more typically in the background. Come for the heartfelt\, intimate ballads and stay for the raw\, bluesy picking. Gardner’s got all your musical bases covered. \nBlue Café shows are free to the public and are supported by donations to the Community Arts Fund. Seating is limited. Doors open at 7:00pm at 29 Elm Street; take the elevator to the 3rd floor. FMI\, call 207-236-3154.

SUMMARY:The Power of Thin Places
DESCRIPTION:Explore this Celtic concept with New York Times bestselling writer Eric Weiner. He’s traveled the world in an effort to discover places where heaven and earth seem to collapse together and people find themselves transformed. Name a thin place? Disney World is not one. Neither is Cancun. But what about Powell’s Bookstore? The Empty Quarter in Oman? Perhaps\, he says\, a thin place shows us earth as it really is\, unencumbered. \nThis program is offered through Shannaghe\, Belfast’s residency for writers and environmentalists\, and Belfast Bay Watershed Coalition.

SUMMARY:National Theater Live Broadcast – The Audience
DESCRIPTION:Returning to cinemas for the first time in over a decade\, Helen Mirren plays Queen Elizabeth II in the Olivier and Tony Award®-winning hit production\, directed by Stephen Daldry. \nFor 60 years\, Queen Elizabeth II met with each of her 12 prime ministers in a private weekly meeting. This meeting is known as The Audience. From Winston Churchill to Margaret Thatcher and David Cameron\, the Queen advised her prime ministers on matters both public and personal. Through these private audiences\, we see glimpses of the woman behind the crown and witness the moments that shaped a monarch. \nPeter Morgan’s Netflix phenomenon The Crown was based on this hit play which was captured live from London’s West End in 2013 and went on to become one of the most-watched NT Live productions. \nAdult $18 | Senior $13 | Student $11 | All fees included
