4 - See the Henhouse Prowlers perform live in Homer
Eleven years in the making, Chicago’s Henhouse Prowlers have built a reputation for hard work and non-stop touring, playing music inspired by the roots of bluegrass while branching out into a sound uniquely their own. From lightning fast picking, to sentimental ballads—playing storied original material, traditional songs, and contemporary covers—The Prowlers’ live show leaves no one wanting.
Date/Time: Saturday, Aug 8, 8 p.m.
Location: Center for the Arts of Homer, 72 South Main St, Homer

A despicable theatre critic has been murdered and there's no end to the list of suspects! This funny and very theatrical who-dun-it has been called "a dashingly funny play...two hours of sophisticated fun!" by NY Newsday. A great night out for theatre and mystery lovers alike!
