City Stage celebration
hits Greensboro streets
By Felicia Fogleman
Arts Editor
It’s educating and entertaining. You can see it, taste it, hear it
and feel it. What is it? It's the Greensboro City Stage Celebration on
Oct. 1-2.
The City Stage is a combination of arts, music, craftsmanship and
international flavors held annually on the streets and in several
buildings in downtown Greensboro. It’s underwritten by the Miller
Brewer Co. and co-sponsored by the United Arts Council of Greens-
Eye Catchers
You can make your eyes dance as you watch the Frank Holder
Dance Company. Or perhaps the Linda Bryan Hula Dancers and
Belly Dancers will put a sparkle in your eye. Other groups will
dazzle you too.
Near the Greensboro Historical Museum crafts will be demons
trated. This will include sheep-shearing, wool-spinning and natu
ral dyeing.
Such crafts as basketry, applehead dolls, woodcarving and hide-
tanning will be on exhibition and to clean things up a bit, there’s
soap making.
While you’re using your other four senses on the Greensboro
streets, open your ears to bluegrass, swing music, beach music and
rock ’n roll.
Six groups headline the festival: the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, Bo
Thorpe and His Generation II Orchestra, the Chairman of the
Board, the Band of Oz, Oingo Boingo and the Spongetones.
Mixing country with rock, the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band will perform
two shows each day.
The Band of Oz will perform twice Sunday. Chairman of the
Board will perform twice Saturday.
And then the Spongetones will blast music at the party Friday
and twice Saturday featuring music from the ’60s British rock inva
sion.
Tastebud Tinglers
Let the fudge hit your sweet tooth or the pinto beans and corn-
bread hit your tummy as the festival gets underway. Forty-five food
vendors will be at your convenience with such foods as: egg rolls,
meatball sandwiches, falafel in pita bread or plain ole ham bis
cuits that can be washed down with soft drinks, coffee, spiced teas
or beer (only in two beer gardens).
