The Magnetic Theatre presents Riveted, a staged reading with song of a new folk musical by local playwright and musician Deborah Silverstein, directed by Erin McCarson, January 21st, 2023 at 7:30pm.
As a family packs up all of the memories in the matriarch’s attic, secrets and history unfold to change their lives and relationships forever. Through three generations, Riveted explores how each woman learns from or bucks against the traditions of her mother, and her mother before her, to create her own life and make her own place in the world.
By special arrangement, patrons may choose to attend this staged reading of Riveted either in person or online as a live-stream.

This 6-week workshop series is inspired by Richard Rohr’s, “Breathing Under Water: Spirituality and the Twelve Steps”. Throughout this series, we will explore The Twelve Steps as described in this powerful book and how they connect with Spirituality and Yoga. Join instructor, Rosie Mulford, as she takes you on a journey to gain a deeper understanding of how the ancient principles in the Gospels and the modern-day Twelve Steps can help to free those who struggle with addiction.
Interweaving yogic philosophy and asana to “connect the dots,” this 6-week workshop will include discussion, movement, pranayama and relaxation.
This course is open to all recovery paths or anyone affected by addiction and no prior yoga experience is required.
We will unpack 3 major principles of addiction:
1. We all have a universal addiction to the way we think 2. We must recognize that we are already that which we seek to become and we already have that which we desire 3. We need to rid ourselves of the heaviness of the ego in order to see what we are and what we have

Palimpsest: A Live Podcast Performance
In celebration of the podcast Palimpsest’s fifth anniversary, join creators Jamieson Ridenhour and Hayley Heninger for an intimate live performance featuring three complete stand-alone episodes from 2022’s Visitations series.
Palimpsest is a single-voiced horror audio drama about memory, identity, and the things that haunt us. Each 10-episode season is a self-contained story exploring the spaces between horror, fantasy, and psychological realism. Recently wrapping up its fourth season with over half a million downloads, Palimpsest has critics calling it “audio fiction’s best foray into the Gothic” and “a masterclass in atmosphere.”
