There’s nothing like the circus to make us feel like kids again, as the smiles on our residents’ faces clearly show while attending the Cirque Du Soleil show “Luzia” playing in nearby Oaks!

Getting into the spirit of the fast-approaching 250th celebration of our country’s birth, a group of residents recently attended “1776 The Musical” at Walnut Street Theatre. In addition to enjoying this revolutionary show, residents were there to see and support vocalist and actor Ben Dibble who performs frequently on the Shannondell stage as part of our seasonal Broadway Series. For tickets, before the show closes May 31st, visit walnutstreettheatre.org.

It’s an abstract world in the Shannondell Art Gallery these days! Hanging through May 28th, this engaging “Abstract: An Artists Among Us” exhibit showcases our talented resident artists’ boundless imagination in creating multi-medium works that mercifully leave the real world behind. In the words of Warhol, “Art is anything you can get away with.”

What a fun(ny) group we had attending the musical “Hairspray” recently playing at the Fulton Theater in Lancaster. Surprising everyone with bouffant props certainly set the stage for this big, bold show that took home 8 Tony awards when it debuted on Broadway in 2002. Directed and choreographed by Kenneth Ingram, this local production delivered the same high energy and powerhouse vocals the musical is known for. Bravo to a superb cast, including our resident ‘dos!

Known as the “City of Murals,” Philadelphia claims more than 4,000 such works. Enjoying a tour of a selection of these public art projects, residents recently learned about the collaborations that gave rise to these grand-scale creations, the artists themselves, and the impact on youth art education within these communities. A big “thank you” to Mural Arts Philadelphia!

How do your friends and colleauges see you? We recently posed this question to members of our employee Ambassador Program, which showcases the culture at Shannondell and promotes our community as a great place to work. To break the ice in answering this month’s question, Ambassadors were paired off with the task of painting portraits of each other. Not only did the results bring “kicks and giggles,” but also closer connections that aren’t constrained by a six-inch screen. We give them all an “A!”

This “Carousel” took us for the ride of our lives, well actually of “Life.” Directed by Julianna Schauerman, our Actors Studio pulled out all the stops in this rollicking show celebrating life and love through comedy, dramedy, humor and farce. Adding well-placed (and played) song and dance, our resident thespians simply outdid themselves on stage for this recent production in the Performing Arts Theater. A great big “standing O” to the cast and crew, behind the scenes’ cheerleaders, Sue with MCT, and the Activities staff ... bravo!

Residents discovered where Rock meets Bach thanks to the recent TAKE3 concert in the Performing Arts Theater. Energizing not only the stage, but the entire theater, violinist Lindsay Deutsch, cellist Mikala Schmitz and pianist Jason Stoll lived up to pre-concert hype of a “must-see show unlike any other of our winter season.” Fantastic show ladies ... you rock, no Bach, no rock!

If our residents have anything to say about it, every day should be a “Sundae” at Shannondell. Enjoying a surprise pop-up ice cream bar with all the sweet fixings are a few residents and staff members caught in the act with their personalized Sundaes. We’ll take ours with Reese’s pieces, whipped cream and a cherry on top, please!
