Joanne Froggatt, who stole the hearts of millions of viewers as Anna,

the loving and resilient lady’s maid on Downton Abbey, stars in a totally

different role in this spine-tingling drama. Dispensing death from the

DEAR FRIENDS,Spring is finally here! That means it’s time to get out and enjoy the many activities our community has to offer. If you’re looking for a few entertaining and enlightening things to do in May, here are just five you can take part in. But I encourage you to visit WXXI.org/events for a complete list of happenings.

1. From May 9-13 our national health care series, Second Opinion, will be taping 10 episodes and we invite you to be part of the studio audience. We’ll be recording two episodes each day at 10AM and 2PM at WXXI’s studios on State Street. If you’ve ever wanted to see how a national television show is made, this is your chance! Visit WXXI.org/secondopiniontickets to reserve your seat.

2. On May 15-16, from 2PM – 6PM, WXXI will be at the Lilac Festival with “Curious George” for a meet and greet. Families can take pictures with George and enjoy some WXXI Kids hands-on activities and PBS KIDS giveaways.

3. May 18-21 The Little Theatre will launch the One Take Film Festival. The festival will celebrate the art of non-fiction filmmaking and foster the appreciation of documentary film. You can find more about the festival and the films by visiting OTFF.org.

4. On May 28 at 8PM, WXXI-TV brings you PBS’s National Memorial Day Concert, featuring an all-star lineup of actors and musicians. Stay tuned after the concert to catch the 30-minute preview of Ken Burns’ newest documentary, The Vietnam War. The series, which tells the epic story of the war as it has never before been told, premieres this September.

5. On May 31 from 12PM to 2PM, Connections with Evan Dawson will be live from the Little Theatre with special guest WXXI’s Capitol Bureau Chief Karen DeWitt.

There’s one more thing you can do in May, and that’s to remind Washington about the important role public media plays in our community. You can do so by visiting protectmypublicmedia.org, where you can take a stand with WXXI and the many voices across the nation to make the case that public media is an essential investment in our community.

Enjoy spring in Rochester and I hope to see you at one of our events!

Best Regards,

BONNIE ARNOLDNAMED VOLUNTEER OF THE YEARBonnie Arnold received the Charles M. Wise Volunteer of the Year award at WXXI and the Little Theatre’s Annual Volunteer Recognition Ceremony last month. The award, named after the late Charles (Chuck) Wise – a loyal WXXI volunteer for many years, stands as a testament to Wise’s unwavering spirit of volunteerism. A volunteer since 2003, Bonnie answers phones during radio membership drives and works the WXXI/Little booth at summer festivals. She is also instrumental in helping with WXXI’s Online Auction, assisting with logistics including solicitations, item descriptions, maintaining the warehouse, and operating the auction store.

WE KNEW JFK: UNHEARD STORIES FROM THE KENNEDY ARCHIVES SUNDAY, MAY 21AT 9PMThis radio documentary tells the life of John F. Kennedy, told in oral history form, through the first-person recollections of those who knew him. The program is constructed from a remarkable collection of audio interviews, recorded half a century ago and archived at the Kennedy Library in Boston, where they have gone largely unheard by the general public.

FRONT LINES: A SELECTED SHORTS MEMORIAL DAY SPECIAL On Memorial Day, we honor soldiers who have given their lives in battle, and remember also those who are still serving. On this special Selected Shorts program, we hear four works that look at the experience of war in different ways, from the real-life account of an officer to a futurist’s fantasy.

Our first reading is from the anthology Operation Homecoming: Iraq, Afghanistan, and the Home Front, in the Words of U.S. Troops and Their Families. “Dear Boys” was a selection of emails written by Lieutenant Colonel Chris Cohoes to his young sons while he was serving in the Middle East. One of them is read here by Matthew Modine. Our second story imagines the experience of a former slave serving in the British Army during the Revolutionary War. Charles Johnson’s “A Soldier for the Crown,” is read by Ruben Santiago-Hudson.

Our third story is Robert Olen Butler’s “A Mother in the Trenches,” in which a determined woman visits her son on the front lines of France during World War I. The reader is Kathleen Chalfant. Our final story is by the late Brazilian writer Moacyr Scliar. His comically dystopian “Peace and War” imagines war as just another clock-punching job. It’s read by Michael Cristofer.

5/6 Alfano: Cyrano De Bergerac The comedy/tragedy of Cyrano de Bergerac and his beloved Roxane, a love story for the ages, comes alive in this redis-covered operatic gem, which packs the power of full-blood-ed Italian verismo. The title role is a signature part for the charismatic star tenor Roberto Alagna, performing it with the company for the first time opposite Met favorite Patricia Ra-cette, who plays his secret love. Marco Armiliato conducts.

5/13 Strauss: Der Rosenkavalier The dream cast of Renée Fleming as the Marschallin and Elīna Garanča as Octavian star in Strauss’s grandest opera. In his new production, Robert Carsen, the director behind the Met’s recent Falstaff, places the action at the end of the Habsburg Empire, underscoring the opera’s subtext of class and conflict against a rich backdrop of gilt and red damask, in a staging that also stars Günther Groissböck as Baron Ochs. Sebastian Weigle conducts the sparklingly perfect score.

Join WXXI for a local version of the Antiques Roadshow experience! On Saturday, May 20 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. WXXI hosts its annual Antiques Appraisal Event at WXXI’s studio. Bring in your favorite treasure and have it appraised by one of our antique experts. Tickets are $30, and can be purchased online at WXXI.org/events or by calling (585) 258-0200.

PLEASE NOTE: Each ticket is good for one person’s admission with one item to be appraised. (A pair of earrings or candlesticks can be considered one item.) If you would like to upgrade your ticket to have one additional item appraised, you may pay $10 at the door on the day of the event. All items must be small enough to be carried into the theatre. Photos are accepted for larger items.
