Live at the Five Spot is the Contemporary Art Center's music event featuring the best regional talent performing jazz, blues and more. It is a smokeless, nightclub atmosphere that is a great way to end a busy week with your friends. While the music fills the building, one can stroll through our three fine art galleries. Consult the calendar to learn what bands will be playing.

You may order food & drink from the Rhythm Kitchen yourself and bring it up or bring your own food and drink. Remember to bring your own plates, silverware and cups. After the performance, go downstairs to enjoy more live music at the Rhythm Kitchen.

The Buckle brothers, Billy and Tom, are in big trouble.  Tom's bad luck playing the ponies has drained away Billy's savings and he has borrowed from loan shark Pizza Face Petrillo, who wants his money back or else.  Grandfather Buckle had plenty of money, but these two black sheep are out of the will. What else to do but dress Billy up as their cousin, which is a nun who is to inherit the entire fortune.  Throw in a stuffy lawyer, a hard drinking, man-hungry housekeeper and a trio of beautiful young women, and you have the recipe for a laugh-packed farce of twists, turns, puns and pratfalls.
