Franklin Light Opera Company is thrilled to be returning to the Williamson County Performing Arts Center for Gilbert & Sullivan’s beloved comic opera, HMS Pinafore, or, The Lass That Loved a Sailor. The story takes place about the Royal Navy ship, the HMS Pinafore, and revolves around the captain’s daughter falling in love with a lower-class sailor. The opera pokes fun at the British social classes, politics, and, of course, the Royal Navy. This classic has captivated audiences through the years with its topsy turvy twists and turns, well-known melodies, and unforgettable characters.

Nature Poetry Workshop at Owl's Hill
2023-09-16 09:00 - 12:00 | Owl’s Hill Nature Sanctuary, 545 Beech Creek Rd S, Brentwood, TN, 37027, United States
August 12, September 16, and October 14
9 am – Noon
$45 per workshop or $120 for the 3-class series (each workshop can be taken independently)
Join us once a month to read and write poems that respond and engage with nature. During our time together, we will look closely at several examples of nature poetry and discuss the nuts and bolts of how such poems are crafted. We will also think about why the poet chose to consider certain specific elements of the natural world to be included in their work. Once we read a few poems for inspiration and guidance, we will then let the beautiful surroundings of Owl’s Hill Nature Preserve be our further motivation and personal muse by trying our own hand at writing poems. I will offer prompts to help encourage our creative process.
This workshop will be one that might generate full or maybe just the beginnings of poems. The organization of the class will be as such: discuss poems, split up to write our own poems, come back together to share what we came up with. By encouraging each other’s drafts, I hope we will all walk away with the potential for a strong, nature-inspired poem.
What to bring:
Paper: in the form of a journal or a notebook.
Writing implement: a pen, pencil, (maybe bring more than one just in case).
Outdoor clothing and shoes: I will encourage you to explore the grounds around Owl’s Hill, so you should wear the proper clothing and shoes to do so.
Sunscreen and/or insect repellent.
A lunch or snacks in case you get hungry.
Water.
Please plan to arrive early enough to park and to get settled in.
