Conceived and performed byTheChemistryof Lime TreesDaniel Burkholder/The PlaygroundSaturday, November 198:00 p.m.Arts & EventsWhat divides us? How do we negotiate the various borders in our lives? Inspired by these questions, Daniel Burkholder/ThePlayGround explores the impact of real or perceived borders through two factual, historical stories in a premiere theatricaldance piece. Part One focuses on a story from the Ellis Island archives about a young Russian woman abandoned on herway into America by her fiance. Part Two, drawn from the Bosnian War, focuses on Bosko and Admira, a real-life Romeo andJuliet, and how their struggle against societal, religious and political borders eventually lead to their deaths. Through therealistic theatre motifs and the physicality of dance, The Chemistry of Lime Trees combines athletic movement, live singing,text and provocative images to create a work both lush and stark, straightforward and layered, and concrete and abstract.Damian’s note: Daniel Burkholder is one of the Washington DC area’s most important and talented choreographers andperformers.

Arts & EventsWHITE LIKE ME: A Honky Dory Puppet ShowCreated and performed by Paul ZaloomWednesday, April 11, 8:00 p.m.Renowned puppeteer and political satirist Paul Zaloom unleasheshis latest solo comic puppet extravaganza at the CenterStage. Theevening will consist of two parts:In Adventures of White-Man, Zaloom employs the old school,drawing room medium of toy theatre to tell the story of thearchetypical “white man” and his universe. We see White-Manleave his planet Caucazoid, travel through space, discover and“civilize” the earth (populated with aliens), become a philanthropistand savior, and finally, get really scared and angry as hell abouthis approaching minority status. The puppet cast of the show isdrawn from the gigantic collection of knick-knacks and brick-a-braccollected by the artist over the years: action figures, toy cars, dolls,found objects, weird junk, and more.Just Another Other is a dangerous and combative dialog betweenZaloom and a ventriloquist dummy. Zaloom bought the puppetsight-unseen on eBay, the box has just arrived, and the puppeteerunpacks the dummy in front of the audience. Since he’s been instorage for 60 years, the dummy will be brought up-to-date byZaloom on what’s been going on in the intervening years: theInternet, medical marijuana, face transplants, gay marriage, and,in particular, a black president. The dummy will flip out, particularlyabout the latter, as he turns out to be an unapologetic racist.Damian’s note: Paul Zaloom is one of the most importantperformance artists in the country and I am pleased that I canbring his satirical work back to the CenterStage. This is an eveningof adult language, themes and material.Featuring Zoë KeatingAn Evening ofSarah LipstateNew MusicLow End String QuartetSaturday, April 148:00 p.m.Zoë Keating is a one-woman orchestra.

The LowEnd String Quartet is a re-imagining of theclassical string quartet. The instrumentationdiffers, adding a bass, dropping a violin, andswapping in an electric guitar for the viola.Damian’s note: In one evening, these threeartists will create what I believe will be one ofthe highlight concerts, not just of our series,but anywhere. Join us and explore some ofthe most interesting and engaging work beingcreated today.22For more information, call 703-476-4500.

Infant/Kindergarten Learn to SwimThe goal of the Reston Community Center’s Learn to Swim Program is to prepare participants for a lifetime of waterpleasure and to promote water safety. All lessons are taught by the Aquatics staff of the Reston Community Center. Staffmembers are certified in CPR and further trained by the RCC Aquatics School. If the class level you want is not availableat a convenient time, please ask to be put on the Interest List. When possible, classes are created to meet special timeand day requests. If you are unsure of class placement, a water test can be arranged by calling the Aquatics Departmentat 703-390-6150. Parents of Level 1, Level 2, Rookies, and Skippers classes are highly encouraged to attend a free1-hour orientation designed to teach parents how to provide guidance, care, supervision, motivation, and supportas their children participate in our swim lessons program. Parents are reminded that after the first day of class, theyare requested to observe their swimmer’s class from the pool overlook. It cannot be over-emphasized that participation inany swim lesson program will not “drown-proof” your child. It is only the first step in developing your child’s water safetyand swimming skills. Year-round practice, regular exposure to water and positive encouragement are the tools needed fordeveloping your child’s comfort level in water and improving their abilities.AquaticsInfant/Kindergarten Class RequirementsCLASSES AGES PREREQUISITES: EQUIVALENT LEVELWATERINTRO.AQUA TOTSSKIPPER ISKIPPER II(WithInstructorApprovalOnly)ROOKIE IROOKIE IIRANGERMARLIN6–18 months19-36 months3 year olds3 year olds4–5 years4–5 years4–7 years4–7 yearsNo swimming skills required.Parent/caregiver must accompany child in the water.No swimming skills required.Parent/caregiver must accompany child in the water.No swimming skills required.Must be ready to follow simple instructions and be comfortable withan instructor.Enter and exit water independently.

AquaticsYouth Learn to SwimThe goal of the Reston Community Center’s Learn to Swim Program is to prepare participants for a lifetime of waterpleasure and to promote water safety. All lessons are taught by the Aquatics staff of the Reston Community Center. Staffmembers are certified in CPR and further trained by the RCC Aquatics School. If the class level you want is not availableat a convenient time, please ask to be put on the Interest List. When possible, classes are created to meet special timeand day requests. If you are unsure of class placement, a water test can be arranged by calling the Aquatics Departmentat 703-390-6150. Parents of Level 1, Level 2, Rookies, and Skippers classes are highly encouraged to attend afree 1-hour orientation designed to teach parents how to provide guidance, care, supervision, motivation,and support as their children participate in our swim lessons program. Parents are reminded that after the firstday of class, they are requested to observe their swimmer’s class from the pool overlook. It cannot be over-emphasized thatparticipation in any swim lesson program will not “drown-proof” your child. It is only the first step in developing your child’swater safety and swimming skills. Year-round practice, regular exposure to water and positive encouragement are the toolsneeded for developing your child’s comfort level in water and improving their abilities.Youth Class RequirementsCLASSES AGES PREREQUISITES:YouthLevel 1/2YouthLevel 1/2Youth Level 3Youth Level 46-9 year olds • No swimming skills required.10-12 year olds • No swimming skills required (Call 703-390-6149 for availability).6-12 year olds6-12 year olds• Step from side into chest deep water, move into a front float for 5 seconds, rollto back, float for 5 seconds then return to standing.
