Hot Times at Old Town

Appearing below are selections from the hard copy Hot Times. The objective is to highlight activities at the School and in the larger community, especially those featuring or of special interest to teachers and staff. Your suggestions are welcome. Enter a comment (under any item); it will come to me rather than automatically appearing.

Highlight: Julia Storke

Many Old Towners know Julia as a voice or piano teacher; some have seen her before as a singer-songwriter, performing her music and reading her poetry. But did you know that she’s also an actress and dancer, with credits in New York, San Francisco, Chicago, and Argentina? Her work has included performing the lead role of Lili in Why We Have a Body at Theater Rhinoceros and dancing in the long-running hit musical, Floss! Julia brings her students this background, plus years of K-8 classroom experience and the benefit of multiple grants from the Chicago Foundation for Education for her classroom work.

Julia performs periodically in the Chicago area, including at Davenports, 1383 N. Milwaukee. To find out when she will be there next, call the club at 773-278-1830 or check with Julia at the School.
