Alice By Heart On Stage at Selma Arts Center

by Chelsea Jones


I drive past the Selma Arts Center almost every day on my way to work. And yet, I had never been inside. I had always been curious about the building with its imposing modern facade. Selma, CA is not the first city that pops into my head when I think of theater, art, and performance. And yet, here was the Center, and here was my chance to jump in, just like Alice down the rabbit hole. And how glad I am that I jumped.

I stopped coloring my hair six years ago and embraced the journey of joining a silver-haired sisterhood. Having been a loyal client of my hair stylist for over 20 years, I found myself missing our scheduled hair color appointments every six weeks and not just because I knew my silver roots would be disappearing back when I was still coloring my hair.

Rogue Show Previews: Local Performers Marc Gonzalez & Blake Jones

by Marc Gonzalez & Blake Jones


After last year’s Marty’s Turn, I got a hankering to perform my own writing again. But I had learned a few things since Merely a Player, which served as my playwriting and solo show debut in 2020, also at the Rogue Festival: 1) I don’t have the bandwidth to learn and perform an entire, traditional solo play, and 2) I need a team.
