Cardale Evans, frequently referred to as "Mr. Willow Glen," was a well-know icon in the community because of his passion to serve others. He had a contagious energy and spirit that radiated through the downtown area. Evans was a kind heart and a warm smile on Lincoln Avenue who unfortunately lost his battle with cancer at the end of 2010.

Willow Glen in Motion is featuring a memorial video for Evans, which will be airing in our regular time slot, Friday, February 4 at 6:00 p.m. on Comcast Channel 15 and can also be found on our website. This video was created by Brent Haley with Left-Hand-Man Productions and Amy Rueda.

Ravenscroft

Mon, 11 Sep 2006 03:51:05 PDT

Ravenscroft, by Don Nigro, directed by Bryan Freeman. This psychological drama is a thinking person's Gothic thriller, a dark comedy that is both funny and frightening. On a snowy night, Inspector Ruffing is called to a remote house to investigate the headlong plunge of Patrick Roarke down the main staircase. He becomes involved in the lives of five alluring and dangerous women: Marcy, the beautiful Viennese governess with a past; Mrs. Ravenscroft, the flirtatious lady of the manor; Gillian, her charming but possibly demented daughter; Mrs. French, the formidable and passionate cook, and Dolly, a terrified maid. They lead him through a bewildering labyrinth of contradictory versions of Patrick's demise and that of the late Mr. Ravenscroft. There are ghosts on the staircase, skeletons in the closet, and much more than the Inspector bargained for. His investigation leads into own tortured soul and the nature of truth itself. You will not guess the ending, but you will be teased, seduced, bewildered, amused, frightened and led to a dark encounter with truth or something even stranger.

Performances run October, 6-21, 2006 on Thu, Fri, Sat evenings at 8 PM, and Sunday matinees at 2:30 PM. Tickets go on sale September 3rd and can be obtained by calling 408.294.1828, x116 (or in person at CSL.) Prices: $20 for Gala, $15 regular admission, $12 for Senior 65+ and Students
