KIDBIZ©: Small Business Takes on a New Meaning
The KidBiz© Market is returning this summer as a project of the Buffalo State College Small Business Development Center and Forever Elmwood. The KidBiz© program is a small-scale entrepreneurial and educational program for 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders, which culminates in an open air market along Elmwood Avenue. Anyone interested in participating must take part in a Get Ready for KidBiz© training session, where children learn how to serve customers, how much supplies might cost, and how much to charge. Upon completion, young entrepreneurs will receive a KidBiz© Startup Kit and a KidBiz© Certificate! Kids can sell anything that will fit on the 4-foot tables, rented for $2 per day – old toys, sports cards, books, crafts, homemade food and drinks, crafts, or clothes they have outgrown are all suggested. Sales days are June 16, July 14, and August 11.
Training: May 19, 9:30 AM – 10:30 AM Free Buffalo State College Classroom Bldg C122, 1300 Elmwood, 14222, 878.4030

Rock and Roll Theatre
French satire from the 1600's feels like falling asleep in high school english class. But classic French satire with a rock and roll band? That sounds better. We can thank Andy Liegl for this bold modernity on December 26th when his production of Such Foolish Affected Ladies opens at the Alt Theatre. The original play calls for violinists but this role has been liberally opened up to local band The Nepenthe.

A Souvenir From Alleyway Theatre
It’s funny how history seems to repeat itself. Florence Foster Jenkins was in the elite member of society, but terribly eccentric and utterly convinced that she was a great coloratura soprano – despite the fact that she couldn’t carry a tune for even a few notes. She even managed to hold a sold out concert, even though she couldn’t sing! Sound familiar? Remember William Hung?
Jenkins’ story happened over 50 years ago. She would hold annual recitals in the Ritz Carlton h … - Dec 18th 2008, 6:51am
