Catherine at Open Stage
This is always a fun event; members of our community, and sometimes someone just passing through, play music or do a reading to hone their skills and entertain the audience.
At Clementine’s you can enjoy a delicious vegetarian dinner and/or dessert made by Stephanie while you support the performers with your quiet attention.
Many of the performers are professional, including well-known poets and musicians who choose to live in the Flathead, but you don’t have to be a professional to perform at Open Stage.
I am one of the reader/writers, reading chapters from my memoirs. Poetry, screen plays, journals and other writings can also be heard at Open Stage.
Joe Zambrano is usually the MC , accompanying his folksy-bluegrass on guitar, mandolin and harmonica. Folk, bluegrass, blues, jazz, Broadway, and classical can all be heard at Open Stage.
See ‘Contact’ above, to get on the performance list for an evening. Reservations for dinner are required.
