| The roster of performers
for Tilaran's third monthly Pena Cultural was indefinite as we submitted
this report to the Tico Times, but, if this Pena is anything like
the first two, it is bound to provide a pleasureable evening. We know
for sure it will occur at 6 pm on September 19 and is likely to be
in the high school auditorium in Tilaran. The cultural association,
named with less than great verbal economy Asociación de Desarrollo
Específico Pro Rescate y Estudio del Folclor, el Arte y La
Cultura del Cantón de Tilarán, is inviting not only
impressive local singers, musicians, and poets, but as before will
import impressively talented performers from other areas. Among those
being invited are Alex Piedra, who is a singer, and his brother, who
writes poetry, as well as Capoeira dancers from San Carlos. (Capoeira
is a Brazilian kind of martial art) Among several fine local performers
will be a typical dance group from Tronadora, and |
some reggae singers. I personally
hope that some of the performers we saw in September will be back.
However, it appears that there
is so much talent available that the program will be quite changed
each month.
So, at six pm this evening
(Oct. 19), you can find yourself very enjoyably entertained at the
high school auditorium (or wherever they direct you from there).

Another book exchange is planned
for the regular Wednesday social at Hotel Tilawa on Oct. 24, according
to B'ryan, the resident event organizer and author, who urges attendees
to finish up and bring back all those borrowed thrillers and add
