Entertainment listings can be e-mailed to jdrake@hoodrivernews.com I CARRIED A WATERMELON: A Dirty Dancing Story by TriptheDark Dance Company debuts April 17 Columbia Center for the Ar ts is proud to host TriptheDark for their fifth season as a dance company invites you into the world of Patrick Swayze's hips. The show is Friday, April 17, at 8 p.m. Keeping to their tradition of bringing entertaining dance performances to Port- land, "I Carried A Watermel- on: A Dirty Dancing Story" is equal parts homage and ir- reverence: everything you al- ways loved about Dirty Danc- ing, and everything you did- n't know it was missing. Hood River gets a rare oppor- tunity to see this Portland Based Company locally. Tragedy and social strata befall Johnny and his crew, and he finds himself in need of a new dance partner. "I Car ried A Water melon" doesn't just retell your fa- vorite eighties movie master- piece, it takes your dusty old VHS cassette, throws in some glitter, spandex, TriptheDark's le gendary humor and accessibility and presents it for you as fresh and relevant as ever before. So be there or be square. And squares have corners. And nobody, but nobody, puts baby in the corner. Doors open at 7:15 with the show at 8 p.m. Tickets ($18 adults/$15 students and seniors/$10 children under 12) are avail- able at www.tripthedark.com.

Classical music lovers of the Mid-Columbia will have an opportunity to experience the fifth biennial Organ Crawl, a series of five perfor- mances on the historic pipe organs of The Dalles on Sun- day, April 19, from 2 to 5 p.m. The event was initiated by the late Robert Carsner in 2007, and friends who sup- ported him in the first four Crawls determined to contin- ue the tradition in Carsner’s memory after his death in planned for the Art Center theater during the month of the show. Local musician Jim Drake came up with the idea for the show. "The Gorge has always had a unique music culture, and combining instrument mak- ers and artists into a show seems like a natural fit. I want the show to demon- strate how the process of making a musical instru- ment can be translated into art that can be seen and heard," Drake said.
