METALINE FALLS — The Cutter Theatre is celebrating the coming of autumn with a series of events this October.
Backwoods Fiber Arts is returning to the Cutter from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 11 in its Green Room. This is a unique, once-ayear opportunity to engage in an increasingly rare art form. A chicken taco lunch will be available for $8.
Tap Grandmas are going to be at the Cutter at 6 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 16 for $15. These always-popular women will bring to the Cutter another seldom-seen, almost-lost art, one so catchy that participants will find themselves tapping along with them. There is a spaghetti and meatball dinner at 5 p.m. for $20, with reservations required by Friday, Oct. 10.
Also returning to the Cutter is Elvis impersonator Ben Klein, whose performance is a popular event there. He is performing again at 7 p.m. Friday, Oct. 24, following a meatloaf dinner at 6 p.m. The performance and dinner each cost $20, with reservations required for the latter by Friday, Oct. 17. Showgoers may not want to miss one of Klein’s shows, which are high energy and so much fun. To make the evening even more fun, the Cutter invites showgoers to dress in costume.
Fall Festival will return to the Cutter better than ever, held from 1 p.m. Friday, Oct. 31. The nocost, family-friendly event features games, a child-friendly movie, food and an exciting costume contest for both children and adults. The movie starts at 1 p.m., followed by carnival games, with the costume contest at 2 p.m. The games and contest will have prizes.
Artscape is back in session, this year incorporating more snacks, treats and brooms — there will be lots of glitter. New additions to the Artscape program include Muus Li von Walter, Natalie Krabbenhoft and Selkirk High School senior Malinda. As before, Artscape costs $8 and serves students ages 8 and up. The Cutter is soon to release the October schedule.
Outside of events, the Cutter is displaying 47 photos of the history of Metaline Falls and Metaline on the walls of its upper-level Skylight Room. The photos include descriptions of what each one portrays.
