Hank Dietle's Tavern

Hank Dietle’s has been a labor of love for fans of the county’s oldest licensed bar for many years, serving up cold beer and warm memories since the 1916 store reopened as Hank Dietle’s Tavern in 1950. As development pressures were wiping out history along the pike, longtime fan Tony Huniak took over in 1990 to keep our beloved bar going. When the Quarry House burned in 2015, Tony welcomed Rockabilly Saturday Night to a new venue on the pike, carving out space for dancing in a homey social setting that proved a perfect fit for fans of live roots &amp; retro music. After Hank Dietle’s suffered a devastating fire in February 2018, fans rallied again to save the irreplaceable roadhouse. Chantal “Kiti” Gartner set up a Go Fund Me website to help the out of work employees and teamed with Mark Segraves and others to organize a benefit concert to launch a reconstruction effort. Thanks to their tireless efforts and many fans who contributed, the roof was repaired, the porch rebuilt, critical electrical work done, and interior walls rebuilt. Building on their efforts, three devotees of the historic tavern, Tommy Bowes, Sarah Bonner, and Alan Kresse, along with Gina Cocco, Lisa White, and Tom Helf, teamed up to complete work on the interior, recreate our beloved “Hank Dietle’s Cold Beer” sign, and get the institution rolling again. All are long-time supporters of Maryland’s live music and dance scene—musicians, promoters and entrepreneurs dedicated to ensuring that Hank Dietle’s rides again.

Music and Lyrics by Cole Porter,&nbsp;Original Book by P.G. Wodehouse &amp; Guy Bolton&nbsp;and Howard Lindsay &amp; Russel Crouse


New Book by Timothy Crouse &amp; John Weidman
Anything Goes (2022 Revision) is a vibrant, dance-heavy version of Cole Porter's classic musical about romance and mistaken identities aboard the S.S. American, following stowaway Billy Crocker's quest to win heiress Hope Harcourt from her stuffy fiancé, with help from singer Reno Sweeney and gangster "Moonface" Martin, all set to iconic songs like "You're the Top" and the title track, with the 2022 revision updating the book for modern audiences and boosting its dance numbers. 
This version of Anything Goes was adapted from the 1987 Broadway revival, originally produced by Lincoln Center Theater.
ANYTHING GOES is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals on behalf of Tams-Witmark LLC.<a href="https://www.concordtheatricals.com" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">www.concordtheatricals.com</a>
The 2022/2021 revival of Anything Goes is generally considered appropriate for ages 10+ and often rated PG, offering a fun, tap-heavy, and witty romantic comedy. While it contains mild adult humor, innuendo, and references to alcohol/smoking typical of the 1930s setting, it lacks heavy violence or explicit scenes

LOCAL, FREE COMMUNITY EVENT RETURNS TO CELEBRATE BLACK JOY&nbsp;
Hey Cousin Culture Fest to Feature Entertainment, Food, Crafts, Activities and More for all ages

(Silver Spring, Md)--The fourth annual The Hey Cousin Culture Fest returns to Veteran’s Plaza in Silver Spring for a full day of music, food, celebration, and joy. Taking place on Sunday, August 16 from 1-8 pm, this free event welcomes families and individuals of all ages. Hey Cousin Culture Fest is centered around celebrating Black Joy.&nbsp;

Hey Cousin has become a local tradition where community, arts, food, education, and culture come together for an unforgettable day. The event features a variety of activities, information from local nonprofits, entertainment by local performers, and products from local small businesses.

This event was born from the idea that bringing community together is everything. We must celebrate joy, culture, and unity. We’re thrilled to once again create a space where we highlight and showcase the beauty of Black culture,” said Hey Cousin Co-Founder Janae Johnson. “At the festival, in partnership with our vendors and performers, we’ll showcase, educate, and raise awareness of the great work happening in our communities and families every day.”

Vendors will be offering a large gamut of products anywhere from attire to food, beverage, and crafts. “Supporting local talent and businesses is so important and contributes towards fulfilling our mission as an event and organization,” said Johnson.

Space for vendors is still available. To learn more about availability, booth sizes, prices, and sponsorship options, please contact <a href="mailto:info@theturnkeyagency.com">info@theturnkeyagency.com</a> There are still opportunities available for artists to perform.
