The undisputed king of electric
blues is scheduled to play to a
packed audience Friday night at
Centennial Hall.

BB King is one of the most well-
known living blues musicians in
the world, and certainly the most
famous person to ever come out
of the tiny town of Itta Bena,
Miss.

The 2000 census pegged Itta
Bena's population at about 4,000
residents living within a 1.5
square mile area.

Yet the town still managed to
make it into the 2000 Coen
brothers film, "O Brother, Where
Art Thou?"

In the movie, a notorious
gangster terrorizing the the
Deep South stops George
Clooney's character Everett and
his crew and asks them how to
get to Itta Bena.

Name the gangster and the
actor who played him for a
chance to win a set of three
cookbooks.

Aisle seats: Arts picks for the week

Tucson, Arizona | Published: 07.25.2008
Theater
What happens when your best friend is a 6-foot-tall white rabbit no one but you can see?
That's the premise of Mary Chase's classic play "Harvey," which Top Hat Theatre brings to life today through Aug. 24.
The comedy stars James Gooden as Elwood P. Dowd, the eccentric and lovable best friend of the imaginary rabbit. Other stars include Courtney Davis as Myrtle Mae Simmons and Terra Thompson as Veta Louise Simmons.
The production previews at 7:30 p.m. today and opens Saturday at the theater, 3110 E. Fort Lowell Road. Performances will be at 7:30 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays and 3 p.m. Sundays through Aug. 24. Cost: $10 for tonight's preview; $18 general admission, $15 for students and active military for regular performances. Reservations: 326-6800.
Music
The Gypsum Ensemble apparently is as comfortable at home performing folk classics as it is classical gems.
From the sound of it, the group — comprising some of some of Tucson's most respected musicians — creates a musical melting pot.
The Gypsum Ensemble is Michael G. Ronstadt on cello, guitar, charango and vocals; Sandy Suskind on flute, alto saxophone, guitar and vocals; Petie Ronstadt on bass, guitar and vocals; and Jim Hill on drums and percussion.
The group will perform a program of works by Bach and Telemann, folk and jazz tunes and original compositions at 3 p.m. Sunday at St. Philip's in the Hills Episcopal Church, 4440 N. Campbell Ave., at River Road. The concert is presented by Friends of Music at St. Philip's, and admission is by donation. For details, call 299-6421.
