See Absalom Live on Stage!
Da Vinci Arts Middle School presents The Black Mask; an original adventure by Tom Beckett set in Golaria, the award winning Fantasy Roleplaying setting by Paizo Publishing. “On the anniversary of the Gray Master’s Ascension, no child is safe in the Puddles of Absalom.”
In this story four young heroes from the Puddles set out in the dark of night to save a child kidnapped by dark Cultists to Norgorber. Time is short, because the Cultists plan on poisoning the child as a sacrifice to their evil God. The heroes must track the villains through the most dangerous alleys and sewers of Absalom, the City at the Center of the World. In the process, they learn the value of friends and the true meaning of family. Featuring appearances by the Green strumpet, The Proprietor and Grandmaster Torch, himself.
This production follows on the heels of the very first live action play set in the role-playing world made popular by Dungeons and Dragons. The first production, “Burnt Offerings” opened at Da Vinci Arts Middle school two years ago to rave reviews. This time the storyline and characters are original making best use of the talents of the students at hand. This production continues the action with live swordplay, magical spells and hungry ghouls.
The show opens Thursday, March 15th at 7:00 pm for three consecutive nights with a 2:00 pm matinee on Saturday, March 17th. Tickets are now on sale in the da Vinci office. Tickets are $7 for general admission seating; $15 for preferred, reserved seating.
Da Vinci Arts Middle School, 2508 NE Everett, Portland. For more information visit the school website www.pps.k12.or,us/schools/davinci or contact Connie Cheifetz conniec@pps.net

Anyone interested in bringing the Live Theater to PaizoCon?
I am putting out feelers out there for anyone willing to help support the costs of bringing our theatrical production to PaizoCon this year. Or at least some semblance of the show. The full show would cost several thousand to transport and house the actors and production crew, something a Public middle school does not have.
If people are interested, I will spend this Spring fund-raising to make it happen. I believe that if all of us help a little, then it can happen. I may even have some roles for people who would be interested in performing.
Thanks for being such an awesome community.
