CLAYTON — Tickets to summer perfor-mances presented by the Thousand Isalnds Performing Arts Fund at the Clayton Opera House are now on sale. The season offers a variety of performances designed to appeal to a wide-ranging audience. Shows begin at 7:30 p.m., unless otherwise noted.

On June 21, a musical institution, Blood Sweat & Tears, will take to the opera house stage. Blood Sweat & Tears has left an indel-ible mark on the American music scene since 1968. One of the greatest horn bands in the history of popular music, BS&T’s alumni roster reads like a Who’s Who of theworld’s greatest jazz and rock musicians. The last original member, Bobby Colomby, left the band in 1977, but he continues to guide the band to this day. Key Bank is the event’s sponsor. Tickets are $45 for reserved seats and $40 for general admission.

The Manhattan String Quartet performs June 27. The concert is TIPAF’s annual Sid-ney T. Cox Memorial Concert sponsored by the Northern New York Community Foundation. Critically acclaimed as one of America’s leading ensembles, The Man-hattan String Quartet is celebrating its 41st season.Tickets are $25 for reserved seats and $15 for general admission.

Arrival: The Music of ABBA will perform on July 11. Arrival is the only group that tours with the original musicians from AB-BA. The band has toured more than 35 na-tions and appeared on several TV and radio shows. Tickets are $40 for reserved seats and $35 for general admission.

Hot Club of San Francisco’s “Cinema Vivant” will bring gypsy swing music to Clayton on Friday, July 20. Imagine your-self in the idyllic French countryside in the 1930s. Sometime before dark, a gypsy caravan sets up camp in a ield outside of town, luring the locals out for an evening’s fun. The wanderers travel with a ilm pro-jector, pointing it at the side of a barn. As the images licker to life, musicians play, matching every movement on the screen with virtuosity, passion and humor. Hot Club of San Francisco presents an evening of short vintage silent ilms accompanied by live gypsy swing. The event will show-case the opera house’s newly acquired HD DVD player and new high resolution movie screen. Tickets are $30 for reserved seats and $25 for general admission.

July 27, TIPAF will welcome back to the Clayton Opera House stage Long Island na-tive and Clayton resident — now a home-town favorite — Kathryn Ingerson. The classically trained soprano, alongside her special guests, will present a musical cele-bration of life and love on the St. Lawrence River, with both familiar and contempo-rary melodies, along with newly composed

original music. This performance is spon-sored by Community Bank NA. Tickets are $25 for reserved seats and $15 for general admission.

This event is sponsored by Community Bank.

The Capitol Steps return to Clayton on

Friday, Aug. 3, for shows at 5 and 8 p.m. The Capitol Steps earned a reputation for being the only group in Washington that attempts to be funnier than Congress. This event is sponsored by the Michael Barbera and Deedy Family Fund. Tickets are $45 for re-served seats and $40 for general admission.

With hit singles like “Heard It in a Love Song,” “Fire on the Mountain,” “Can’t You See,” and “Take The Highway,” The Mar-shall Tucker Band earned seven gold and three platinum albums. The band will per-form those hits and more on Aug. 17 Tick-ets are $50 for reserved seats and $45 for general admission.

Quirky only begins to describe Nellie McKay. “Home Sweet Mobile Home,” her latest album of all-original material, fea-tures the musical wanderlust, lyrical play-fulness and unique point of view that has characterized her music since her break-through debut, “Get Away From Me.” Her performance, with media sponsor NCPR, is scheduled Aug. 31. Tickets are $35 for re-served seats and $30 for general admission.

On Aug. 29, there will be a beneit perfor-mance of A.R. Gurney’s play “Love Letters” featuring Erin Greene and Andrew Woodto-support the TIPAF Fund at the Northern New York Community Foundation. The TIPAF Fund is an endowment fund created in 2011 to support TIPAF’s mission in perpetuity. Tickets are $15 for all seats.

semble , directed by Matt Gayle. Hermon-DeKalb Jazz Band directed by Jonathan Pabis.

n 4:40: Lisbon Jazz Band, directed by Glenn Roberts.

n5 :15: Colton-Pierrepont Jazz Band, di-rected by Don Washington.

n 7:35 to 9 p.m.: AAK Middle School Showchoir, directed by Laura DiMatteo; AAK Middle School Stage Band, directed by Jill Rubio; Potsdam High School Jazz Band, directed by Theresa Witmer.

The festival is supported by the St. Law-rence County Music Educators Associa-tion, the Potsdam Rotary Club and many individual contributors.

Admission to all concerts in the series is free but there is a “pass the hat” for dona-tions.

The series’ broad spectrum of mu-sical talent also includes the Gibson Brothers,who received the International Bluegrass Music Association’s awards for Best Album of the Year (2011) and Best Vocal Group of the Year (2011); Wayne Bergeron, one of the most recorded and respected trumpet players in America, and a host of local and international perform-ing artists. In addition to the SLCMEA Fes-tival there will also be a “Sounds of Sum-mer” Festival with John Wolfe, 12 Struck, and The Debt, and a Children’s Festival as well as a special performance by Kim and Reggie Harris for the students of Norwood-Norfolk Central School.

The series will present a storytelling workshop called “The Language of Story-telling” as part of “A Children’s Festival” that will feature The Storycrafters, Bob Shelley and Stephen Gratto. It has coor-dinated the Wayne Bergeron/All Star Big Band concert with workshops and an eve-ning concert for Crane Youth Music. The All Star Big Band will also feature master drummer John Riley and Pat Carney in the

trumpet section. Added to this mix the series will pres-

ent three Canadian-based concerts with the Peter Karp/Sue Foley Blues Band, My Sweet Patootie, Al Parrish, and the Mari-golds with Gwen Swick, Suzie Vinnick and Caitlin Hanford. It will also present the acoustic jazz ensemble Babik, the North-ern Lights Orchestra, Northern Symphonic Winds, The Brass Firemen, jazz singer Jody

Sandhaus accompanied by the Pete Malin-verni Trio, and neotraditional folksingers Dana and Susan Robinson.

The traditional ending of the season will feature a brand new and original produc-tion of “The Town That Fought Hate,” a story based on the book “The Christmas Menorahs”. The true story is about how Billings, Mont. came together and outwit-ted and outlanked the Skinheads gang.

The vehicle for this encouraging story is the Catskill Puppet Theater, no stranger to Norwood Village Green Concert Series au-diences.

The season will end on Sunday, Aug.12, with a concert to raise funds for improve-ments to the band shell. The series vice-president, Andy Van Duyne, will coordi-nate the show, to be given by many local performers.

In its long history,the Norwood Village Green Concert Series has been able to present a wide variety of performers from elementary school to local and regional artists and performing groups from every continent. Its performers have included 11 Grammy winners, 13 Juno winners, two Emmy winners, 14 International Bluegrass Music Association winners, three Blues Foundation award winners, three Maple Blues award winners, a recipient of the Or-der of Canada and a National Medal of Arts recipient.

The series is supported with public mon-eys by the New York State Council on the Arts, a public agency, the Town of Potsdam, and the Village of Norwood. It is also sup-ported by the private sector that accounts for its main source of income via founda-tions, corporations, civic associations and individuals. The acoustic concerts are sup-ported by the Sweetgrass Foundation. The series continues to take donations made

Country superstar Blake Shelton, leg-endary comedian Bill Cosby and the iconic rock band Journey are headliners at this summer’s DPAO/Toyota/Car-Freshner concert series, whose proceeds will help design and build a sensory oasis outdoor area to serve individuals with developmental disabilities.

It is the stated mission of Disabled Persons Action Organizationto provide quality and effective individualized ser-vices to developmentally disabled chil-dren and adults in Jefferson and Lewis counties.

The services are geared primarily toward helping families cope with the stress of caring for their disabled loved ones.

The outdoor concert by Blake Shelton, with opening act Justin Moore, is sched-uled for 7 p.m. Friday, July 6, at the Alex T. Duffy Fairgrounds.

Tickets are $75 for reserved seating (chair provided) and $49 general admis-sion. General admission seating for all concerts is first-come,first served.

There will be a few bleacher sections available, or you can bring a chair.

Mr. Shelton’s hits include “Austin,”“The Baby,”“Home” and “Hillbilly Bone.” The irst single from his latest CD, “Honey Bee,” rose to number one on the country singles charts last year.

Bill Cosby will perform an indoor show at 7 p.m. Saturday, July 28 at the fairgrounds arena. Tickets are $56 re-served (floor or bleacher) and $40 gen-eral admission .

Mr. Cosby, 76, received a Kennedy Center Honor in 1998, a Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2002 and the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor in 2009.

His success spans ive decades, begin-ning in the 1960s with his stand-up act. His role on television’s “I Spy,”alongside Robert Culp, made him the irst African-American to co-star in a dramatic series. In the 1980s, he rocked the television world again with “The Cosby Show,” a gentle and whimsical family sitcom.

He also has starred in movies and has authored several books, including the best-selling “Fatherhood.”

Journey will perform at 7 p.m. Aug. 14

in an outdoor concert at the fairgrounds.The band Loverboy will open the concert. Tickets are $75 reserved and $55 general admission.

Since its formation in 1973 in San Fran-cisco, Journey has earned 19 top-40 singles and 25 gold and platinum albums. The band’s greatest-hits album is certiied 15 times platinum.

Six of Journey’s top-40 singles reached

the top 10 of the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart and two reached No. 1 on other Bill-board charts; the list also includes a No. 6 hit on the U.K.singles chart with“Don’t Stop Believin’.”

Originally a progressive-rock band, Journey has been described by Allmu-sic as having cemented a reputation as “one of America’s most beloved (and sometimes hated) commercial rock/pop bands” by 1978, when it redefined its sound by embracing traditional pop arrangements on its fourth album, “In-finity.”

According to the Recording Industry As-sociation of America, Journey has sold 47 million albums in the U.S., making it the 28th best selling band. The band’s world-wide sales have reached more than 80 mil-lion albums.

To purchase tickets for any of the concerts in the series, visit DPAO.org or call the Disabled Persons Action Orga-nization at 782-0044 or 1(800) 533-2859.

CLAYTON — The “Baby Boomer Com-edy Show: Clean Comedy for People Born Before Seat Belts, Safety Helmets and Facebook” is coming to the Clayton Op-era House, 405 Riverside Drive, at 7:30 pm. June 13. Tickets are $18.

The show by Jan McInnis, comedian and comedy writer, and Kent Rader, “World’s Cleanest Comedian and Speaker,” is 90 minutes of standup comedy focusing on work, family and life. Ms. McInnis and Mr. Rader are Boomers with a combined 37 years of touring theaters, comedy clubs and corporate venues, and they have a reputation for clean and funny humor. Ms. McInnis was featured in the Wall Street Journal and the Washington Post for her clean humor, and Mr. Rader’s clean com-edy won him the Branson Comedy festival award.

The two will shine their comedic spot-lights on such universal topics as work, di-eting, aging, family and do-it-yourself proj-ects, inding comedy in situations that we take too seriously.

Ms. McInnis has sold comedy material to a wide range of markets including the “Tonight Show” with Jay Leno. Her book is “Finding The Funny Fast: How To Cre-ate Quick Humor To Connect With Clients, Coworkers And Crowds.” Inspired by 15 years as a marketing director in the 9 to 5 world, she is a popular speaker at associa-tion and corporate conventions.

And during more than 14 years on the full-time speaking circuit, she has spoken at hundreds of conferences, training sessions, employee retreats and banquets held by such organizations as Anthem BlueCross, the Mayo Clinic, Merrill Lynch, John Deere, the Federal Reserve, Women in Insurance and Financial Services and the Mayo Clinic. she was featured in the Wall Street Journal and the Washington Post as one of the top con-vention comedians whose material is “clean” (as in not offensive).

Born in D.C., Ms. McInnis was in charge of the “Joke of the Day” for her junior high school lunch table. She majored in com-munications at Virginia Tech, where she

was a disk jockey for the local radio station.Known as the “World’s Cleanest Come-

dian and Speaker,” Mr. Rader helps people and associations learn and experience how laughter matters in reducing stress and building quality organizations. Kent grad-uated from William Jewell College in Lib-erty, Mo. with a bachelor of science degree in accounting.

He spent ive years in public accounting and 12 years as chief inancial oficer and chief executive oficer of hospitals before becoming a professional speaker in 1997. Kent authored the stress reduction book

“Let It Go, Just Let It Go,” released in April 2002 and is featured in 450 Country Inn and Suites Hotels’“Read It and Return” program. Mr. Rader has been heard on NPR’s “Talk of the Nation” and Sirius Satel-lite radio. He also performs clean standup comedy in comedy clubs from New York City to Seattle and is the winner of the 2007 Branson Comedy Festival award.

GANANOQUE, Ontario — Director Greg Wanless recently announced details of the 31st season of the Thousand Islands Play-house, which began May 11. This is the i-nal season for Mr. Wanless, who founded the company 30 years ago.

Jan Alexandra Smith (who last performed for the Playhouse in “Lend Me A Tenor” and “The Drowsy Chaperone”) will direct the musical comedy “Nunsense II,” by Dan Gog-gin, now playing to June 16. It features Mary Kelly, Marlene Handrahan, Kristin Galer, Ramona Gilmour Darling and Hilary Wilson, with musical direction by Sandy Thorburn.

June 22 to July 21, the premiere of Douglas Bowie’s “Somewhere Beyond The Sea” will be directed by Mr. Wanless . It features Stew-art Arnott as a high-minded food guru and Tracey Ferencz as a not-so-worshipful stu-dent, with Alison Deon and Matthew Gibson playing a variety of other roles.

“Little Shop of Horrors,” the legendary musical (which also celebrates its 30th birth-day this summer) plays July 27 to Sept. 1.

Created by Howard Ashman and Alan Menken and directed by Mr. Wanless (who also plays the hungry plant) “Little Shop of Horrors” stars Carly Street (“The Drowning Girls,” “Lord of the Rings,” “The Russian Play”) as Audrey, with Jonathan Purvis (a frequent performer with Citadel Theatre) as Seymour, David Talbot as Mushnik and Kyle Dadd as Orin.

Sept. 7 to Oct. 6 marks the return of the adventurous couple from “Sexy Laundry,” Mo Bock and Debra Hale, directed by Kathryn MacKay in “Henry and Alice: Into The Wild,” a new play from Vancouver’s Michele Riml, premiering at the Arts Club Theatre this spring.

The Springer Theatre season closes Oct. 10 to 27 with a limited run of the world-trav-elled production of “Tempting Providence,” the real-life story of Newfoundland’s legend-ary nurse Myra Bennett, by Robert Chafe. Performed by the acclaimed company The-atre Newfoundland Labrador, “Tempting Providence” stars Deidre Gillard-Rowlings as Bennett and Daryl Hopkins as her husband, with Willow Kean and Robert Wyatt Thorne in a variety of roles.

At the Firehall Theatre, meanwhile, the acclaimed musical by John MacLach-lan Gray, “Amelia, the Girl Who Wants to Fly,” opens the Firehall season June 28 to July 28, and is produced in association with Festival Players of Prince Edward County. Directed by Festival Players Artistic Direc-tor Sarah Phillips, it features the original

cast of Eliza-Jane Scott, Stephen Gallagher and Karin Randoja.

Aug. 10 to Sept. 8, Jenny Young (“The Syringa Tree,” “Shape of A Girl,” “Afghana-da”) stars in Stephen Massicotte’s award-winning romantic mystery “The Clock-maker,” directed by Kathryn MacKay.

Co-starring are Jonathan Wilson (Dora-Award winner for The Lion King,” Dora & Chalmer’s Award nominee for “My Own Private Oshawa”), Gordon Bolan and The-atre Kingston artistic producer Brett Chris-topher.

Mr. Wanless and Ms. MacKay will resign effective at the end of the 2012 season. Ash-lie Corcoran, recent artistic producer with Theatre Smash, will succeed them at the end of the season.

Subscriptions for the 2012 season are on sale now through the box ofice at 1 (613 ) 382-7020. More information on the season and the company’s history can be found at www.1000islandsplayhouse.com.

Sponsoring the series this year is Water-town Savings Bank.

Additional funding is received from the New York State Council on the Arts Decentralization Program, adminis-tered in Jefferson, Lewis and St. Law-rence counties by the St. Lawrence Arts Council, the village of Sackets Harbor and the town of Hounsfield’s Commit-tee for the Advancement of Tourism.

SYRACUSE — A legendary jazz act inter-rupted by rain last year has will return to the M&T Jazz Fest for the event’s 30th anniver-sary next month at Jamesville Beach Park. The Average White Band, the accomplished Scottish funk and soul ensemble known for the smash hits “Pick Up the Pieces” and “Cut the Cake,” will take the Jazz Fest stage im-mediately following co-headliner Donovan on the inal day of the two-day 2012 festival, according to Jazz Fest founder and executive producer Frank Malitano.

From 9:30 p.m. to closing June 23, the multi-platinum Scottish recording artists will return to the Jazz Fest stage, following their rain-shortened, but enthusiastically received, performance at last year’s festi-val. Of the return engagement, Average White Band’s co-founding guitarist-vocal-ist Alan Gorrie said, “Party coming soon. Can’t wait. We’ll pull out all the stops for this new scenario.”

“Because of the brief rainstorm that passed through the fest last year on Friday evening,” said Mr. Malitano, “we ran a bit behind and AWB only got to do a handful of their hits, as they graciously exited to make room for their fellow 2011 co-headliners. But that early exit obviously left the crowd wanting more, and they were clearly one of the major highlights of last year’s festival, so their return this year was inevitable. This time around, they’ll play a full 90-minute set, and close out the 30th anniversary fest in incredible fashion. They’ll definitely make it a dance party to remember!”

Currently celebrating their 40th anni-versary with a world tour, and regarded universally as one of the best soul and funk bands in history, Average White Band has been performing sold out shows for over 40 years. Together the band has had multiple gold albums and numerous Grammy nods for a number of their mega-hits. With their heavy R&B soul inluence and their dance- heavy classic grooves, AWB has been a proven favorite at jazz festivals worldwide for the past four decades.

The 30th anniversary M&T Jazz Fest is scheduled for Friday, June 22 and Satur-day, June 23 from 3 to 11:30 p.m. daily at Jamesville Beach Park. The popular festi-val, featuring co-headlining acts Kenny G, Donovan. Billy Vera and AWB, includes free admission for the public. The 10th an-nual Price Chopper ireworks display will immediately follow Average White Band’s performance on the second night of M&T Jazz Fest 30, adding what Mr. Malitano called a “proper pyrotechnic punctuation for this milestone musical event.”

SYRACUSE — Keith Urban, winner of four Grammy awards for Best Male Country Vocal Performance, will bring his 2012 concert tour to the New York State Fair as part of the grandstand con-cert series. Academy of Country Music and Grammy nominee David Nail will open the show.

Mr. Urban, the newest member of the Grand Ole Opry, will perform at 7:30 p.m. Aug. 24 at the grandstand. Ticket prices are $65, $55 or $45, and will include your admission to the fairgrounds if purchased prior to the date of the concert. The ticket on-sale date will be released as more con-certs announcements are made.

“Keith Urban has had long-lasting suc-cess in country music,” said Dan O’Hara, state fair director. “This will be a show fair-goers won’t want to miss.”

This will be Keith Urban’s second per-formance at the state fair grandstand since his sell-out appearance in 2006. Critics have called Mr. Urban’s shows “one of the best reasons in the world to attend a live concert.” They’ve said that fans would be “hard-pressed to ind a better coun-try — or rock — show anywhere.” Mr. Urban’s catalogue of hits, such as“Better Life,”“Somebody Like You,”“Days Go By,”“You’ll Think Of Me,”“Sweet Thing,” and his latest, “Without You,”“You Gon-na Fly,” and “For You,” will give his fans a concert experience that has earned him a reputation as one of music’s best live per-formers.

David Nail is also returning to the New York State Fair, after his performance at Chevy Court in 2011. His second studio album, “The Sound of a Million Dreams,”

was released in November and includes “Let it Rain,” with Sarah Buxton, which has reached number one on the country charts.

Keith Urban’s show is the second an-nounced concert planned for the 2012 grandstand series. Jason Aldean with opening act Luke Bryan will perform Aug. 31.

More state fair concerts will be an-nounced as their ticket information is con-irmed. The 2012 fair will run from Aug. 23 to Sept. 3.

SYRACUSE — Keith Urban, winner of four Grammy awards for Best Male Country Vocal Performance, will bring his 2012 concert tour to the New York State Fair as part of the grandstand con-cert series. Academy of Country Music and Grammy nominee David Nail will open the show.

Mr. Urban, the newest member of the Grand Ole Opry, will perform at 7:30 p.m. Aug. 24 at the grandstand. Ticket prices are $65, $55 or $45, and will include your admission to the fairgrounds if purchased prior to the date of the concert. The ticket on-sale date will be released as more con-certs announcements are made.

“Keith Urban has had long-lasting suc-cess in country music,” said Dan O’Hara, state fair director. “This will be a show fair-goers won’t want to miss.”

This will be Keith Urban’s second per-formance at the state fair grandstand since his sell-out appearance in 2006. Critics have called Mr. Urban’s shows “one of the best reasons in the world to attend a live concert.” They’ve said that fans would be “hard-pressed to ind a better coun-try — or rock — show anywhere.” Mr. Urban’s catalogue of hits, such as“Better Life,”“Somebody Like You,”“Days Go By,”“You’ll Think Of Me,”“Sweet Thing,” and his latest, “Without You,”“You Gon-na Fly,” and “For You,” will give his fans a concert experience that has earned him a reputation as one of music’s best live per-formers.

David Nail is also returning to the New York State Fair, after his performance at Chevy Court in 2011. His second studio album, “The Sound of a Million Dreams,”

was released in November and includes “Let it Rain,” with Sarah Buxton, which has reached number one on the country charts.

Keith Urban’s show is the second an-nounced concert planned for the 2012 grandstand series. Jason Aldean with opening act Luke Bryan will perform Aug. 31.

More state fair concerts will be an-nounced as their ticket information is con-irmed. The 2012 fair will run from Aug. 23 to Sept. 3.

GANANOQUE, Ontario — Director Greg Wanless recently announced details of the 31st season of the Thousand Islands Play-house, which began May 11. This is the i-nal season for Mr. Wanless, who founded the company 30 years ago.

Jan Alexandra Smith (who last performed for the Playhouse in “Lend Me A Tenor” and “The Drowsy Chaperone”) will direct the musical comedy “Nunsense II,” by Dan Gog-gin, now playing to June 16. It features Mary Kelly, Marlene Handrahan, Kristin Galer, Ramona Gilmour Darling and Hilary Wilson, with musical direction by Sandy Thorburn.

June 22 to July 21, the premiere of Douglas Bowie’s “Somewhere Beyond The Sea” will be directed by Mr. Wanless . It features Stew-art Arnott as a high-minded food guru and Tracey Ferencz as a not-so-worshipful stu-dent, with Alison Deon and Matthew Gibson playing a variety of other roles.

Performed by the acclaimed company The-atre Newfoundland Labrador, “Tempting Providence” stars Deidre Gillard-Rowlings as Bennett and Daryl Hopkins as her husband, with Willow Kean and Robert Wyatt Thorne in a variety of roles.

At the Firehall Theatre, meanwhile, the acclaimed musical by John MacLach-lan Gray, “Amelia, the Girl Who Wants to Fly,” opens the Firehall season June 28 to July 28, and is produced in association with Festival Players of Prince Edward County.

cast of Eliza-Jane Scott, Stephen Gallagher and Karin Randoja.

Co-starring are Jonathan Wilson (Dora-Award winner for The Lion King,” Dora & Chalmer’s Award nominee for “My Own Private Oshawa”), Gordon Bolan and The-atre Kingston artistic producer Brett Chris-topher.

Mr. Wanless and Ms. MacKay will resign effective at the end of the 2012 season. Ash-lie Corcoran, recent artistic producer with Theatre Smash, will succeed them at the end of the season.

CLAYTON — The “Baby Boomer Com-edy Show: Clean Comedy for People Born Before Seat Belts, Safety Helmets and Facebook” is coming to the Clayton Op-era House, 405 Riverside Drive, at 7:30 pm. June 13. Tickets are $18.

The show by Jan McInnis, comedian and comedy writer, and Kent Rader, “World’s Cleanest Comedian and Speaker,” is 90 minutes of standup comedy focusing on work, family and life. Ms. McInnis and Mr. Rader are Boomers with a combined 37 years of touring theaters, comedy clubs and corporate venues, and they have a reputation for clean and funny humor. Ms. McInnis was featured in the Wall Street Journal and the Washington Post for her clean humor, and Mr. Rader’s clean com-edy won him the Branson Comedy festival award.

The two will shine their comedic spot-lights on such universal topics as work, di-eting, aging, family and do-it-yourself proj-ects, inding comedy in situations that we take too seriously.

Ms. McInnis has sold comedy material to a wide range of markets including the “Tonight Show” with Jay Leno. Her book is “Finding The Funny Fast: How To Cre-ate Quick Humor To Connect With Clients, Coworkers And Crowds.” Inspired by 15 years as a marketing director in the 9 to 5 world, she is a popular speaker at associa-tion and corporate conventions.

And during more than 14 years on the full-time speaking circuit, she has spoken at hundreds of conferences, training sessions, employee retreats and banquets held by such organizations as Anthem BlueCross, the Mayo Clinic, Merrill Lynch, John Deere, the Federal Reserve, Women in Insurance and Financial Services and the Mayo Clinic. she was featured in the Wall Street Journal and the Washington Post as one of the top con-vention comedians whose material is “clean” (as in not offensive).

Born in D.C., Ms. McInnis was in charge of the “Joke of the Day” for her junior high school lunch table. She majored in com-munications at Virginia Tech, where she

was a disk jockey for the local radio station.Known as the “World’s Cleanest Come-

dian and Speaker,” Mr. Rader helps people and associations learn and experience how laughter matters in reducing stress and building quality organizations. Kent grad-uated from William Jewell College in Lib-erty, Mo. with a bachelor of science degree in accounting.

He spent ive years in public accounting and 12 years as chief inancial oficer and chief executive oficer of hospitals before becoming a professional speaker in 1997. Kent authored the stress reduction book

“Let It Go, Just Let It Go,” released in April 2002 and is featured in 450 Country Inn and Suites Hotels’“Read It and Return” program. Mr. Rader has been heard on NPR’s “Talk of the Nation” and Sirius Satel-lite radio. He also performs clean standup comedy in comedy clubs from New York City to Seattle and is the winner of the 2007 Branson Comedy Festival award.

Country superstar Blake Shelton, leg-endary comedian Bill Cosby and the iconic rock band Journey are headliners at this summer’s DPAO/Toyota/Car-Freshner concert series, whose proceeds will help design and build a sensory oasis outdoor area to serve individuals with developmental disabilities.

It is the stated mission of Disabled Persons Action Organizationto provide quality and effective individualized ser-vices to developmentally disabled chil-dren and adults in Jefferson and Lewis counties.

The services are geared primarily toward helping families cope with the stress of caring for their disabled loved ones.

The outdoor concert by Blake Shelton, with opening act Justin Moore, is sched-uled for 7 p.m. Friday, July 6, at the Alex T. Duffy Fairgrounds.

Tickets are $75 for reserved seating (chair provided) and $49 general admis-sion. General admission seating for all concerts is first-come,first served.

There will be a few bleacher sections available, or you can bring a chair.

Mr. Shelton’s hits include “Austin,”“The Baby,”“Home” and “Hillbilly Bone.” The irst single from his latest CD, “Honey Bee,” rose to number one on the country singles charts last year.

Bill Cosby will perform an indoor show at 7 p.m. Saturday, July 28 at the fairgrounds arena. Tickets are $56 re-served (floor or bleacher) and $40 gen-eral admission .

Mr. Cosby, 76, received a Kennedy Center Honor in 1998, a Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2002 and the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor in 2009.

His success spans ive decades, begin-ning in the 1960s with his stand-up act. His role on television’s “I Spy,”alongside Robert Culp, made him the irst African-American to co-star in a dramatic series. In the 1980s, he rocked the television world again with “The Cosby Show,” a gentle and whimsical family sitcom.

He also has starred in movies and has authored several books, including the best-selling “Fatherhood.”

Journey will perform at 7 p.m. Aug. 14

in an outdoor concert at the fairgrounds.The band Loverboy will open the concert. Tickets are $75 reserved and $55 general admission.

Since its formation in 1973 in San Fran-cisco, Journey has earned 19 top-40 singles and 25 gold and platinum albums. The band’s greatest-hits album is certiied 15 times platinum.

Six of Journey’s top-40 singles reached

the top 10 of the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart and two reached No. 1 on other Bill-board charts; the list also includes a No. 6 hit on the U.K.singles chart with“Don’t Stop Believin’.”

Originally a progressive-rock band, Journey has been described by Allmu-sic as having cemented a reputation as “one of America’s most beloved (and sometimes hated) commercial rock/pop bands” by 1978, when it redefined its sound by embracing traditional pop arrangements on its fourth album, “In-finity.”

According to the Recording Industry As-sociation of America, Journey has sold 47 million albums in the U.S., making it the 28th best selling band. The band’s world-wide sales have reached more than 80 mil-lion albums.

CLAYTON — Tickets to summer perfor-mances presented by the Thousand Isalnds Performing Arts Fund at the Clayton Opera House are now on sale. The season offers a variety of performances designed to appeal to a wide-ranging audience. Shows begin at 7:30 p.m., unless otherwise noted.

On June 21, a musical institution, Blood Sweat & Tears, will take to the opera house stage. Blood Sweat & Tears has left an indel-ible mark on the American music scene since 1968. One of the greatest horn bands in the history of popular music, BS&T’s alumni roster reads like a Who’s Who of theworld’s greatest jazz and rock musicians. The last original member, Bobby Colomby, left the band in 1977, but he continues to guide the band to this day. Key Bank is the event’s sponsor. Tickets are $45 for reserved seats and $40 for general admission.

The Manhattan String Quartet performs June 27. The concert is TIPAF’s annual Sid-ney T. Cox Memorial Concert sponsored by the Northern New York Community Foundation. Critically acclaimed as one of America’s leading ensembles, The Man-hattan String Quartet is celebrating its 41st season.Tickets are $25 for reserved seats and $15 for general admission.

Hot Club of San Francisco’s “Cinema Vivant” will bring gypsy swing music to Clayton on Friday, July 20. Imagine your-self in the idyllic French countryside in the 1930s. Sometime before dark, a gypsy caravan sets up camp in a ield outside of town, luring the locals out for an evening’s fun. The wanderers travel with a ilm pro-jector, pointing it at the side of a barn. As the images licker to life, musicians play, matching every movement on the screen with virtuosity, passion and humor. Hot Club of San Francisco presents an evening of short vintage silent ilms accompanied by live gypsy swing. The event will show-case the opera house’s newly acquired HD DVD player and new high resolution movie screen. Tickets are $30 for reserved seats and $25 for general admission.

July 27, TIPAF will welcome back to the Clayton Opera House stage Long Island na-tive and Clayton resident — now a home-town favorite — Kathryn Ingerson. The classically trained soprano, alongside her special guests, will present a musical cele-bration of life and love on the St. Lawrence River, with both familiar and contempo-rary melodies, along with newly composed

original music. This performance is spon-sored by Community Bank NA. Tickets are $25 for reserved seats and $15 for general admission.

This event is sponsored by Community Bank.

The Capitol Steps return to Clayton on

With hit singles like “Heard It in a Love Song,” “Fire on the Mountain,” “Can’t You See,” and “Take The Highway,” The Mar-shall Tucker Band earned seven gold and three platinum albums. The band will per-form those hits and more on Aug. 17 Tick-ets are $50 for reserved seats and $45 for general admission.

Quirky only begins to describe Nellie McKay. “Home Sweet Mobile Home,” her latest album of all-original material, fea-tures the musical wanderlust, lyrical play-fulness and unique point of view that has characterized her music since her break-through debut, “Get Away From Me.” Her performance, with media sponsor NCPR, is scheduled Aug. 31. Tickets are $35 for re-served seats and $30 for general admission.

On Aug. 29, there will be a beneit perfor-mance of A.R. Gurney’s play “Love Letters” featuring Erin Greene and Andrew Woodto-support the TIPAF Fund at the Northern New York Community Foundation. The TIPAF Fund is an endowment fund created in 2011 to support TIPAF’s mission in perpetuity. Tickets are $15 for all seats.

semble , directed by Matt Gayle. Hermon-DeKalb Jazz Band directed by Jonathan Pabis.

n 4:40: Lisbon Jazz Band, directed by Glenn Roberts.

n5 :15: Colton-Pierrepont Jazz Band, di-rected by Don Washington.

n 7:35 to 9 p.m.: AAK Middle School Showchoir, directed by Laura DiMatteo; AAK Middle School Stage Band, directed by Jill Rubio; Potsdam High School Jazz Band, directed by Theresa Witmer.

The festival is supported by the St. Law-rence County Music Educators Associa-tion, the Potsdam Rotary Club and many individual contributors.

Admission to all concerts in the series is free but there is a “pass the hat” for dona-tions.

The series’ broad spectrum of mu-sical talent also includes the Gibson Brothers,who received the International Bluegrass Music Association’s awards for Best Album of the Year (2011) and Best Vocal Group of the Year (2011); Wayne Bergeron, one of the most recorded and respected trumpet players in America, and a host of local and international perform-ing artists. In addition to the SLCMEA Fes-tival there will also be a “Sounds of Sum-mer” Festival with John Wolfe, 12 Struck, and The Debt, and a Children’s Festival as well as a special performance by Kim and Reggie Harris for the students of Norwood-Norfolk Central School.

The series will present a storytelling workshop called “The Language of Story-telling” as part of “A Children’s Festival” that will feature The Storycrafters, Bob Shelley and Stephen Gratto. It has coor-dinated the Wayne Bergeron/All Star Big Band concert with workshops and an eve-ning concert for Crane Youth Music. The All Star Big Band will also feature master drummer John Riley and Pat Carney in the

trumpet section. Added to this mix the series will pres-

ent three Canadian-based concerts with the Peter Karp/Sue Foley Blues Band, My Sweet Patootie, Al Parrish, and the Mari-golds with Gwen Swick, Suzie Vinnick and Caitlin Hanford. It will also present the acoustic jazz ensemble Babik, the North-ern Lights Orchestra, Northern Symphonic Winds, The Brass Firemen, jazz singer Jody

Sandhaus accompanied by the Pete Malin-verni Trio, and neotraditional folksingers Dana and Susan Robinson.

The traditional ending of the season will feature a brand new and original produc-tion of “The Town That Fought Hate,” a story based on the book “The Christmas Menorahs”. The true story is about how Billings, Mont. came together and outwit-ted and outlanked the Skinheads gang.

The vehicle for this encouraging story is the Catskill Puppet Theater, no stranger to Norwood Village Green Concert Series au-diences.

The season will end on Sunday, Aug.12, with a concert to raise funds for improve-ments to the band shell. The series vice-president, Andy Van Duyne, will coordi-nate the show, to be given by many local performers.

In its long history,the Norwood Village Green Concert Series has been able to present a wide variety of performers from elementary school to local and regional artists and performing groups from every continent. Its performers have included 11 Grammy winners, 13 Juno winners, two Emmy winners, 14 International Bluegrass Music Association winners, three Blues Foundation award winners, three Maple Blues award winners, a recipient of the Or-der of Canada and a National Medal of Arts recipient.

The series is supported with public mon-eys by the New York State Council on the Arts, a public agency, the Town of Potsdam, and the Village of Norwood. It is also sup-ported by the private sector that accounts for its main source of income via founda-tions, corporations, civic associations and individuals. The acoustic concerts are sup-ported by the Sweetgrass Foundation. The series continues to take donations made
