Children’s Theater Co. presents ‘The Enchanted Bookshop’
Seaside Signal
The cast of “The Enchanted Bookshop” is comprised of 16 elementary, middle and high school-
aged children from across Clatsop County.
In a fresh, fun-fi lled cel-
ebration of reading, “The
Enchanted
Bookshop”
brings to the stage a vast
array of beloved literary
characters, who come alive
each night at a used book-
store, aptly titled “A Likely
Story.”
The Clatsop Children’s
Theater Company, spon-
sored by the Sunset Empire
Park and Recreation Dis-
trict and Jeremy Mills State
Farm, will present “The
Enchanted Bookshop” at the
Seaside Civic and Conven-
tion Center. Performances
take place at 6:30 p.m. Fri-
day, Aug. 16, and Satur-
day, Aug. 17, in addition to
a 2:30 p.m. matinee Sun-
day, Aug. 18. Doors open
a half hour before each
performance.
In “The Enchanted
Bookshop,” written by
Todd Wallinger, six charac-
ters — Dorothy Gale, Robin
Hood, Pollyanna, Sherlock
Holmes, Heidi, and Tom
Sawyer — band together
to help Margie, the absent-
minded owner, save her
struggling store. However,
they’re not allowed to leave
the building or be seen by
human eyes. So when a pair
of smugglers comes looking
for a stolen necklace hidden
inside one of the books, the
characters are torn between
warning Margie — and fac-
ing the risk of disappear-
ing forever — or trying to
defeat the crooks on their
own.
The cast of “The
Enchanted Bookshop” is
comprised of 16 elementary,
middle and high school-
aged children from across
Clatsop County. This will
be third annual summer pro-
duction put on by the Clat-
sop Children’s Theater
Company in conjunction
with the recreation district.
“The Enchanted Book-
shop” performances are
free and open to the pub-
lic. Donations for the chil-
dren’s theater are welcome.

The Angi D. Wildt Gallery features
glass paintings by Christine Kende.
Kende has painted with watercolor
and acrylic, but she found her voice in
glass.
In her process, multiple layers of
crushed glass are applied, fusing after
each layer, until the desired effect is
achieved. Usually six to eight layers
are applied. A lower temperature will
give a textured look; higher tempera-
tures give a glossy look. Repeated fi r-
ings continue to change the glass as
well. She enjoys the juxtaposition of

medium can do.
Kende lived in Santa Fe with
painter parents. Her father stud-
ied with John Sloan, whose studio

was a student. She learned art basics

working glass at the Bullseye Glass
Research Center in Portland.
Kende’s work is exhibited in Salt
Lake City, with the Glass Art Guild
of Utah where she received numerous
awards, including best of show, and
in Longview Washington. She taught
