Written by Tony® Award winner Terrence McNally, It’s Only a Play is a celebration of theatre at its best and theatre people at their not-so-best. The show takes place on opening night of Peter Austin’s new play. At the home of his wealthy producer, Peter is joined by his best friend, the show’s aging starlet, the director, and a drama critic, as the unlikely group anxiously awaits the late-night newspaper reviews. It’s Only a Play promises kooky characters and big laughs in a rare comedy that’s as smart as it is funny!

Jewish wisdom teaches that it takes 40 days to form a habit. The same is true for molding character and how we look at life. In six 45 minute sessions with Esther Becker held on Sunday mornings at 10:30am, “The 40-day Challenge” is an ongoing series providing women with an engaging systematic approach to successfully integrate positive life enhancing attitudes. Our newest program “Make Happiness Happen” begins on Sunday, January 7th. The program is free and open to all women in the Tucson Jewish community.
Jonathan’s Walk4Friendship is a 1 mile walk that raises crucial funds and community awareness for The Friendship Circle – a nonprofit organization for individuals with special needs. Jonathan’s Walk4Friendship begins with an inspirational opening ceremony followed by a 1 mile family walk. Upon reaching the finish line, walkers enjoy a post-walk celebration with entertainment, activities, food and much more!
Jonathan was a participant of the Friends at Home program. Together with his buddy, Adam, he spent countless hours enjoying camaraderie, friendship and true acceptance. Their families connected and became fast friends. Their relationship truly reflects what the Friendship Circle is about. In 2010 Jonathan’s soul left this world after a short battle with cancer. It is in his memory that we dedicate this walk.
