Co-writers Matthew Spangler and Benjamin Evett bring us this bold new adaptation of one of the greatest poems ever written. Called “Captivating” by The Boston Globe, it brings us face to face with the Ancient Mariner, doomed for eternity to retell his harrowing story of an old ship, a voyage to the bottom of the world, and a mystical seabird.
 
It’s a rollicking sea yarn, a fascinating character study, a celebration of storytelling, and a spiritual odyssey into the interconnectedness of all living things.

Nominated for three Elliot Norton Awards, including Outstanding New Script, Outstanding Solo Performance, and Outstanding Production. Produced by Poets Theatre.

Workshop: Tips, Tricks & Shortcuts in Microsoft Excel
Presented by: Pioneer Training

This workshop will present our favorite tips, tricks and shortcuts that we have collected and developed over 20 years of teaching and using Microsoft Excel. Topics will include shortcuts for selecting ranges, using Autofill to create a series of dates or numbers, setting the print area, using page break preview, adding headers and footers, and using page layout view.  You’ll learn how to group spreadsheets in the same workbook in order to type or format more than one sheet at the same time, as well as how to create 3-D formulas that calculate across several spreadsheets in the same workbook.  You’ll practice dividing text from one column into two columns, as well as how to concatenate text from two columns into one.  You’ll learn how to use conditional formatting to format cells according to their values, how to protect all or part of a worksheet, and how to paste an Excel spreadsheet into Word as an Excel object that links to the original spreadsheet and updates automatically.  The workshop will also cover a new set of features in Excel 2013 that includes the new Start screen, Backstage View, Flash Fill, the Quick Analysis Tool, and a new set of options related to creating Excel charts.  A set of handy keyboard shortcuts will also be included in the workshop.
Participants are encouraged to bring laptops and follow along with the instructor, but this is not required.

National Geographic photographer Steve Winter’s “On the Trail of Big Cats Tour,” has engaged sold-out audiences across North America and educated attendees about how to help save the world’s big cats. From trekking India’s Himalayas in search of rare snow leopards, to stalking the elusive jaguar through Latin American jungles, to chronicling the nocturnal activities of the “American lion” or cougar, there is nowhere Winter won’t go to come face-to-face with his subjects.
 
“Steve inspires audiences with stories from his assignments, but he also invites them to become invested in what’s happening with big cats,” said Andy van Duym, Vice President for National Geographic Live & Speakers Bureau.
