Experience the music of Bob Dylan like never before as The Bob Band brings his legendary songs to The Strand, in a moving and deeply authentic concert. This Washington D.C. Quintet offers a richly musical journey through Dylan’s extraordinary catalog, performing with authenticity, reverence and a clear love for the music. Rather than imitating Dylan, the band brings decades of experience to arrangements that highlight the character and depth of his recordings across folk, rock, country, blues, and gospel. With thoughtful storytelling and a rotating setlist that includes “like a Rolling Stone, Tangled Up in Blue, Mr. Tambourine Man, and Make You Feel My Love”. The Bob Band captures the sound and soul of one of the most influential artists of all time. It’s not imitation-it’s a celebration of the music that became it’s own genre.

Barb desperately needs friends. That’s why she moved to this 55+ community in the first place. So what better way to meet new people than to join a good old fashioned Bingo Night? When Bingo Night turns into a full-blown orgy, Barb must decide: does she stay in her safe, predictable world? Or does she play a new game of chance and truly live before it’s too late?
