Intrigue Theater in Eureka Springs.
There is intriguing theater happening in Eureka Springs these days, or at least Intrigue Theater. It’s worth a look the next time you’re at our Eureka Springs Bed and Breakfast. It may even be worth a special trip.
What is Intrigue Theatre? It’s “astounding” says Jacqueline Froelich of KAUAF Public Radio. It will blow your mind says Matt Dunn of Scream Town. It will keep you at the edge of your seat says Trip Advisor.
Intrigue Theater is a fabulous collaboration between an Illusionist and a Medium. Special Guests from “the other side” are featured as well. It’s classic Victorian Era entertainment, and it’s the perfect way to spend an evening in Eureka Springs.
Intrigue Theater will be at the Historic Gavioli May 17 through June 23 and at the Historic Auditorium June 28 through October 28, 2012. Performances run Thursdays through Sundays, and holiday Mondays.
Tickets and additional information are available at Intrigue Theater.

Ruthie Foster in Eureka Springs.
The 2012 Eureka Springs Blues Weekend is coming up, May 31 through June 2. As of this writing, we still have an opening at our Eureka Springs Bed and Breakfast that weekend.
Blues Weekend is the final act of the Eureka Spring May Festival of the Arts, and it’s hard to imagine a better way to wrap up a month devoted to art and creativity.
The blues is all about transforming suffering into beauty. Your lady up and left you, you lost your job, and your dog died. What do you do? You pick up a guitar and let the whole world know. In doing so, you overcome. That’s the power of creativity right there. That’s art.
Some of the biggest names in Blues will be performing in Eureka Springs May 31-June 2. They are Marquise Knox and The Cate Brothers, the Tommy Castro Band and the Ruthie Foster Band. Well known musicians and up and coming musicians will take the stage in The Basin Park Hotel Barefoot Ballroom, The Auditorium, Basin Spring Park, and various restaurants and clubs around town.
The Basin Spring Park shows are free and open to all. Other shows require tickets, and advance tickets are suggested.
Our Eureka Springs Bed and Breakfast is close to the Blues Weekend venues. Come listen to the Blues. It will cheer you.
Tickets and additional information are available at Eureka Springs Blues Weekend.

Creative Energy, at Basin Park.
- Turpentine Creek is celebrating their 20th anniversary with 20 days of art. Artists are invited to set up a workspace at the Refuge so they can capture the animals on canvas, in film, or with clay.

This interactive light painting and photography project, created by Jeremy Mason McGaw and friends, consists of 17 painted images and three images made from people attending a few public events during April.
