anuary. Its a new yearand our fourth for pro-

ducing this magazine.I remember when ourthen publisher Ken Lar-son asked me what Iwould like to see and myresponse was simple an arts and entertain-ment publication to com-plement our two newspa-pers (the Folsom and ElDorado Hills Telegraph).After months of planning,we launched Folsom

Lake Entertainer.Starting our fourth year

of publishing this maga-zine, the response con-tinues to be positive. Lau-ra Newell, who took overas associate editor for the

magazine, has continuedto carry the originalvision of serving the com-munity with this thingsto do publication.

As far as things to do,

our area offers so muchin the way of live per-formances.

The Walking Phoenixesput on a great JohnnyCash tribute show at Har-ris Center for the Arts (see

page 6). There are alsonumerous theatrical

groups such as SutterStreet Theatre, Free FallStage and El DoradoMusical Theatre (per-forming in Folsom).

Since their new sea-sons are still under wrapsas I pen this piece, checkFolsomTelegraph.com fortheir schedules andupcoming shows.

As always, let us knowwhat youd like to see and

how we can improve.

FOLSOM LAKE ENTERTAINER

The Harris Center for the

Arts stage will light up withmovement and color as 25

acrobats display their talentswith props as varied as laddersand giant spinning wheels.

Founded by Lien Chi Changin 1967, the Golden DragonAcrobats have toured interna-tionally for more than 30 years.

With a large cast and colorfulset designs, Cirque Zva isdescribed as a fast-paced, tech-nically innovative and beauti-fully presented new show,based on an art form born inChina 2,500 years ago.

Family shows are some ofthe most popular events at theHarris Center, and this is afresh new show by one of thepremier Chinese acrobat com-panies currently touring the

United States, said Dave Pier,Harris Center for the Arts exec-utive director. What these per-formers are able to accomplish the seemingly impossible isamazing. Its a great example ofhuman creativity, expression,teamwork and excellence;what people can achieve if they

set their minds to it. We expectboth shows to sell out, so peo-ple should buy early to avoiddisappointment.

Cirque Zva was created in2011 for a 10-week engage-ment at Asbury Park Board-walks Paramount Theatre byDanny Chang, artistic director

of the Golden Dragon Acrobats.Dannys approach to the

production was simple hewants to create a show that iseye catching and breathtak-ing, said Jeremy Chang, whospoke on behalf of DannyChang. In order to do so, theproduction was designed so

that the audiences would nothave time to relax between dif-ferent acts.

Cirque Zva will be per-formed at 2 and 7 p.m., Satur-day, Jan. 18, at the Harris Cen-ter for the Arts at Folsom LakeCollege, 10 College Parkway,Folsom. Tickets are $21-$34,with premium seating for $45.
