Pastimes Arts & entertainment High school presents Once Upon a Mattress The Red Bluff High School Theatre Department's spring musical production is Rogers and Hammerstein's Once Upon a Mat- tress. If you thought you knew the story of The Princess and The Pea, you may be in for a walloping sur- prise. Did you know, for instance, that Princess Winnifred actually swam the moat to reach Prince Dauntless the Drab? Or that Lady Larken's love for Sir Harry provid- ed a rather compelling reason that she reach the bridal altar post haste? Or that, in fact, it wasn't the pea at all that caused the princess a sleepless night? Carried on a wave of wonderful songs, by turns hilarious and rau- cous, romantic and melodic, this rollicking spin on the familiar classic of royal courtship and comeuppance provides for some side-splitting shenanigans. Chances are you'll never look at fairy tales quite the same way again. Performances are scheduled for 6 p.m. Friday, Feb. 14 and Satur- day, Feb. 15 at the school's Per- forming Arts Center on campus. Tickets are $5. Looking for polymer clay artists The Green Room Community Art Studio is looking for people who are interested in exploring the possibili- ties of using polymer clay for a vari- ety of projects, including jewelry, sculpting, mosaic and other art forms. Organizers would like to get a group together who would meet once or twice a month to share ideas, tech- niques and a common love for poly- mer clay — people of all ages and all skill levels. A Facebook and Pinterest group is creating polymer canes each week to improve skills in this medium. Check it out at 52 Weekly Cane Projects. The first meeting will be at the Green Room, 331 Oak St., next door to the State Theatre, 6-8 p.m. Friday, Feb. 14. Bring your own clay and tools. The first meeting will be free.
