I am pretty sure @billkirby13 is the only theater person in Omaha who could come up with this many baseball/theater crossovers for a tweet. Dance Nation was great, GO SEE IT
More into Baryshnikov than baseball? Would you rather talk Stanislavski than slugging percentage? Know more about Pinter than pitchers? You're in luck - Dance Nation is running on the BLUEBARN stage through June 25! Visit bluebarn.org/tickets to learn more. #DanceNation #CWS

Omaha is a GREAT food city. I’ve enjoyed 32 of these.
Always a fun day when a new @eater Omaha essentials list comes out! I’ve updated my Omaha 38 with new spots and old favorites that make up Omaha’s best for 2023. Check it out at the link and live on Eater.com. sarahbakerhansen.com/2023/05…

When the state tries to lure big businesses they show them your art, your diversity, your inclusion, your work as examples of Nebraskans. They don’t use your vile racist uncle or your angry neighbor. But that is who they legislate for.

I have now lived same city as my sister and our best friend for 5 years. My life is innumerably better and friendships are why. I will never be able to ignore that knowledge again. I work in a field that favors nomads, but happiness is more important.
1) It's hard to make new friends in your 30s 2) People report being 25% happier when they live close to friends 3) Family isn't enough to provide the robust safety net we crave So why don't we live closer to our friends? Some theories: annehelen.substack.com/p/you…

Welp, we’ll see if post is the alternative for me as it seems more and more folks I like are flying away. post.news/?r=mquQR

I had five years of working down the street from my best friend and it was the best. (Mostly because she’s the best.)
Today is Youth Collection Development Librarian Kendall Munch's last day with OPL. Thank you, Kendall, for your service to OPL, the youth collection, and the community. We wish her all the best in the next chapter of her life! #omahalibrary #farewell #team

Day 1 of @OutlandiaFest was excellent. @TheNational was a fantastic show. And @bandofhorses played all their songs I still rock out to in my car.

Kicking off #OperaCon with Quodesia Johnson and @kaokaliayang certainly sets an exciting tone I’m looking forward to what the next few days have is store.

Very proud of the 5th year of @operaomaha’s Poetry & Music Project in partnership with @NebraskaWriters.
Celebrating nature and its beauty was the focus of an operatic showcase held Sunday near downtown. #Omaha 3newsnow.com/news/local-news…
