A comedic one-woman show about anger, grief, Apollo 11, and the importance of baked goods… Something is not quite right with Donna: She’s a loving mother, a devoted wife, and a minor celebrity to all the bake sale planners in town–but something is making her spacey, and she’s not sure what it is. Therapy is out of the question–and church isn’t the place to share one’s distress. Donna will need to pass through space and through time–all the while listening to an unlikely voice–and try to break free from her gravitational pull to learn just how she can land. August draws a tender dimensional portrait of a woman whose trauma is so relatable, whose heart is so big, and whose intentions are so earnest, we are rooting for her to take that one brave step, even before we know why. Sensory Friendly Performance: Saturday, February 7, 2026 - 2 p.m. Scripps Ranch Theatre on Facebook

His newest and most meaningful work, known as his Legacy Project, is titled "What a Wonderful World." Joe’s art is created from hundreds of tiny pieces of colored paper, meticulously cut into intricate shapes and assembled into stunning compositions. This remarkable project consists of nine individually crafted and framed works, each thoughtfully illustrating the lyrics of Louis Armstrong’s beloved song, "What a Wonderful World." Together, the pieces form a powerful visual tribute to beauty, hope, and humanity. Why a Legacy Project? Joe Valentino created this work with a clear and heartfelt intention: to place his art in a setting where children and young people actively engaged in learning and creating art could experience it every day. He wanted his work to live in the classroom, sparking curiosity, imagination, and inspiration for future generations of artists. Joe has chosen Studio ACE as the permanent home for this extraordinary project. Studio ACE is a nonprofit arts education organization dedicated to connecting, inspiring, and enriching lives through Arts, Community, and Education (ACE). The values of Studio ACE perfectly align with Joe’s desire to give back and nurture creative growth. Please join us at Studio ACE on Saturday, January 31, 2026, from 5–7 p.m., to meet this remarkable artist and celebrate the unveiling of Joe Valentino’s Legacy Project: "What a Wonderful World."

Award-winning Ovation Theatre proudly presents the fantastical, magical, musical extravaganza "Seussical" opening January 16 in San Marcos. Featuring a whimsical story, energetic musical numbers, and loads of laughs, Seussical brings many of Dr. Seuss’s most beloved characters together in one wonderfully wacky tale. "The Cat in the Hat" tells the story of Horton, an elephant who discovers a speck of dust that contains the Whos, including Jojo, a child sent off to military school for thinking too many “thinks.” Horton faces a double challenge: not only must he protect the Whos from a world of naysayers and dangers, but he must guard an abandoned egg left in his care by the irresponsible Mayzie La Bird. Although Horton faces ridicule, danger, kidnapping and a trial, the intrepid Gertrude McFuzz never loses faith in him. Ultimately, the powers of friendship, loyalty, family and community are challenged and emerge triumphant. Ovation Theatre on Facebook
