Brad Fuhr PS Art Museum

The Presley name will forever be connected to Palm Springs. Losing Lisa Marie this week was a shock to the nation, and hit close to home as we lost a member of the younger generation of Presley’s. She was only 54.

We had just watched her on the Golden Globes paying tribute to Palm Springs Life “coverboy” Austin Butler for his performance in Elvis, who was honored at the Palm Springs International Film Festival.

Lisa Marie’s parents honeymooned in Palm Springs and that famous home will be on tour for Modernism Week. Their later home here was known as “Graceland West”, according to The Desert Sun. The former property will be seeing many more fans driving by for a selfie in the weeks to come. My Canyon View Estates neighborhood where  Don’t Worry Darlin’ was shot gets daily visitors who want a pic where Harry Styles shot those scenes. He’s part of the next generation of Palm Springs royalty that someday will be eulogized. But for now he’s alive and well, and making another appearance soon in the desert…
John Taylor has the details this morning on KGAY 106.5.

Nunsense A-Men!

Desert TheatreWorks presents Nunsense A-Men! from Friday, January 13 through Sunday, February 5. When five of the surviving members of the Convent discover that 52 of their sisters have been accidentally poisoned by food prepared by their cook, Sister Julia, Child of God, they’re tasked with the challenge of raising enough money to pay for the burials. The Sisters decide to perform a musical-comedy variety show to raise the funds. Get tickets

A Bright New Boise

Dezart Performs presents A Bright New Boise from Friday, January 13 through Sunday, January 22. Will, who has fled his rural hometown after a scandal at his Evangelical church, comes to the Hobby Lobby, not only for employment, but also to rekindle a relationship with Alex, his brooding teenage son, whom he gave up for adoption several years ago. He joins other lost souls of the Hobby Lobby in confronting an unyielding world through the beige-tinted impossibility of modern faith. Get tickets
