Cenicienta – A Bilingual Cinderella Story
2024-03-09 13:00 | Victoria Theatre, 138 N. Main St., Dayton, OH, 45402, United States
Ten-year-old Belinda is a budding poet and loves to tell stories, but when she’s stuck in the basement preparing for a party upstairs that her stepmother and stepsisters will host, she’ll have to get creative. Belinda re-enacts the classic tale of Cinderella, using whatever objects are at her disposal: napkins, teapots, and doilies, to name just a few. With these everyday items, a healthy dose of imagination, and a love of poetry passed down by her father, Belinda imagines a bigger world for herself. She must learn to stand up for herself and take charge of her life and dreams. This captivating bilingual performance is a modern spin on the beloved fairy tale and tackles cultural heritage, family, and the power of language.

Back by popular demand, Sinclair’s Diversity Office welcomes, Guest Speaker: PING YANG, Ph.D.
“The difference between being in command and losing command over emotions is the root of life and death, and the starting point believing and dying”. Mastery of one emotion is an absolute prerequisite for maintaining health and longevity. This seminar will introduce a unique way of emotional healing that echoes the principle first introduced in ancient sources from more than 2000 years ago. The origins of this healing modality are still practiced in China today, and it was introduced to the West in 2004.
Dr. Yang grew up in the Northeastern part of China, and worked as a design engineer in China after graduating from college. Her dream of an advanced degree brought her to Kansas State University for a Master of Science and then to the University of Illinois, where she earned her Ph.D. in Agricultural and Biological Engineering. She also holds an MBA from the University of Dayton. Dr. Yang currently works as a principal research
scientist at Cargill.
Dr. Yang is passionate about maintaining her health in a sustainable way. She has been studying ancient health wisdom and is eager to share her knowledge. Her personal well-being program includes the ancient body-mind connection and energy exercises. She has been sharing her knowledge and experience at UD’s Lifelong Learning Institute since 2016. She also hosts free online classes since 2020 after COVID hit. Her dream is to combine ancient health wisdom with modern-day technologies to benefit more people.

The Rainbow Fish
2024-03-16 13:00 | Victoria Theatre, 138 N. Main St., Dayton, OH, 45402, United States
Mermaid Theatre of Nova Scotia’s elegant show, THE RAINBOW FISH, brings Marcus Pfister’s colorful story (along with Rainbow Fish Discovers and the Deep Sea and Opposites) to life with enchanting puppetry.
The first of three tales introduces the most beautiful fish in the sea, whose scales shimmer in all the colours of the rainbow. He is admired – and resented – by the entire underwater world, until a clever octopus advises him to give each fish one of his scales. Further adventures follow as The Rainbow Fish finds the courage to explore the great unknown deep sea, discovering a new world with wonderful sights and friendly creatures of all shapes, sizes and colours who are eager to make his acquaintance. The underworld wonderland is the setting for an introduction to the concept of opposites. As a fitting finale, the story ends with the most satisfying opposite of all – give and take – as Rainbow Fish shares one of his shining scales with a friend.
Mermaid Theatre has earned international acclaim for its unique interpretations of the works of Eric Carle (The Very Hungry Caterpillar), Leo Lionni (Swimmy, Frederick, and Inch by Inch) and Sam McBratney (Guess How Much I Love You). These widely-travelled productions incorporate innovative puppetry, striking scenic effects, and evocative original music to provide very young audiences with an effortless introduction to the performing arts and the excitement of reading.
