The Fly Fishing Show

Catamounts, Feed: Après. A Theatre Adventure for All of Your Senses
Sunday, February 19, 5 p.m.
Dairy Arts Center, 2590 Walnut Street, Boulder
Some kind of food or drink offering turns every Catamounts event into a celebration, but the company’s ongoing Feed series takes things to the next level. The latest edition, Après, ponders the best way to re-enter the world after the last few bad years; a script written in collaboration with writers Jessica Austgen, Felice Locker and Peter Trinh and performed by Catamounts core members will unlock answers over a four-course chef’s meal with live music and lots of bonding. The production runs weekends through March 5, and tickets are $84.75 here.
Stories on Stage: Peter Heller
Sunday, February 19, 2 p.m.
Su Teatro, 721 Santa Fe Drive
In this latest edition of Stories on Stage, Timothy McCracken and Allison Watrous will perform stories from local author Peter Heller’s books, which include The River, The Painter, Celine and The Guide. Heller himself will read from his critically acclaimed novel The Dog Stars, then stick around for a post-show discussion. Tickets are $24, and there will also be a virtual showing on February 23. Get the details here.
