The Boise Bard Players presents Shakespeare’s Much Ado About Nothing! All the wedding drama. None of your crazy family members. This is Shakespeare like you’ve never seen before—Much Ado stripped down to its rebellious, fast-talking heart. Six Actors. One Hour. No Stage.&nbsp;

The story: When war heroes Claudio and Benedick return home, they expect a victory lap. Instead, they find themselves caught in a crossfire of wit and wicked schemes. While the young and naive fall for shadowy plots, the legendary witty Beatrice and Benedick wage a “merry war” of words that might just be the greatest love story never told.

This touring play is brought to life all around you, at your table, barstool, or booth. We are jumping off the stage and right into your lives—in fact, we won’t even HAVE a stage this time.&nbsp;

The ultimate “enemies to lovers” story written 400 years ago takes new life as we drop the fourth wall and bring you, wherever you are, into the action. Each performance is site specific and unique.&nbsp;

NOTE: 9 pm shows are 21+ performances. Ever hear how Shakespeare is just “bawdy” jokes? Yeah. It is. Adult Night performances are where we really get to lean into it.&nbsp;

Come be part of the wacky magic.

The Dry Creek Historical Society is pleased to present Our Opening Day Festivities and Open Saturdays for the season.
We will be having our Opening Day Festivities at the Farmstead on Saturday, May 2nd from 12:30-4:30pm including demonstrations, refreshments, tours, Dry Creek Quilters, Handweavers Guild of Boise Valley, Blacksmith demo, Fort Boise Garrison re-enactors, music plus more. Free admittance, but donations are appreciated.
In the early 1860’s, as the Civil War was spreading in the East, President Lincoln signed the Homestead Act. At the time, a mix of Native Americans, trappers, miners, and US Army soldiers were living and working in Idaho. Because of the Homestead Act of 1862, anyone over 21-including freed slaves and women-could apply for a land title for up to 160 acres.
Phillip Schick, a young man originally from New York, arrived in the Dry Creek Valley near Boise in 1863 looking for a brighter future because of the Homestead Act. He built a home and developed his original 160-acre claim into a 400-acre farm. He grew hay, wheat, corn, barley, beans, potatoes, and added an orchard. He also herded cattle and sheep and was a famous breeder of horses.
In 1920 the Schick family sold the farm to Frank Parsons, a banker. He hired Costantino Ostolasa to manage the farm in 1927. Costantino, originally from the Basque country of Spain, ran this grand farm until he passed in 1956. The Ostolasa family continued to work on the farm and live in the farmhouse until 2005.
Soon after the Ostolasa family moved out of the old farmhouse, a group of residents formed a non-profit organization: The Dry Creek Historical Society (DCHS). This organization is dedicated to preserving part of Boise’s farming past. It oversees what is now called the Schick-Ostolasa Farmstead, including the old farmhouse, a detached kitchen, root cellar, saddle shop, woodshed, granary, and large horse/dairy barn all nestled among big trees on two acres near open space and foothills.
The Farmstead is open to the public on Saturdays starting on May 2nd until September 26th from 12:30pm to 4:30pm. We will have special events on some of the Saturdays that will be posted on our website. Please view for updates.
The Schick-Ostolasa Farmstead is located at 5006 W. Farm Court, Boise, ID 83714 - Northwest Boise

Welcome to the high-energy, emotionally charged dance party inspired by the tension, obsession, and enemies-to-lovers chaos of Heated Rivalry. Built around forbidden attraction, late-night adrenaline, and messy feelings you don’t know what to do with, this party lives in the space between competition and connection.
Expect to hear the show’s soundtrack alongside music from the 2010s that moves between aggressive, heart-pounding energy and dramatic, emotional release. This is a night for side-eye, screaming lyrics at strangers, locking eyes across the room, and letting the tension live a little too long.<a href="https://eventvesta.com/events/142695/t/tickets" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">View Tickets &amp; More Info</a>
