Summer Ends/Autumn Begins...

It was definitely a productive summer at Inspiration Studios.

The Village Playhouse produced a very successful 30th One Act Festival and a near sold out production of Midsummer Night's Dream.  The set was spectacular and the production exceeded some expectations.

Several new artists were able to exhibit their art in the gallery, experiencing some great receptions and sales.  
Roberto Carlos Rosado del Valle brought his talents from Puerto Rico with a colorful exhibit entitled "Closing In: Exposing The Details" which captured the memories and spirit of play and games of childhood.  Three painting parties were held under Roberto's tutelage, letting participants learn to enjoy art as a means of relaxing and enjoying the company of friends and new acquaintances.

Jack Long liquid sculpture photography was an amazing exhibit.  Capturing 1/10,000 second photographic images of water explosions....it was an incredibly beautiful show.

Siempre Flamenco performed for a sold out crowd during the Fire & Dance Concert on September 26.  It was a night to remember!

Sadly, the Village Playhouse lost one of its own in September.  We will miss your wit and your technical skills, Jerry Proffitt.  Thanks for all you did to promote theatre in southeastern Wisconsin.

    Erico Ortiz

    Erico Ortiz was born in Cayey, Puerto Rico and was raised in Milwaukee. He earned his undergraduate degree at Marquette University (Spanish Education) and a Masters Degree from UW-Milwaukee (Administrative Leadership). After working for  Milwaukee Public Schools (teacher, administrator) for 33 years, it was time for retirement and a new direction.  
         Erico has worked with several community theatre companies, both on stage and behind the scenes, something he still enjoys today, and is a board member of the Village Playhouse.  He plays guitar and can be found Sunday mornings directing the Spanish choir at St. Francis of Assisi Catholic Parish in Milwaukee.  
         Painting has become a passion since retirement in 2011, leading to the development of Erico's Gallery.  Since then, he has delved into the arts world by becoming involved with Riverwest Artists Association and the Sheboygan Visual Artists.  This latest venture, the purchase of an art gallery and performance space should prove to be exciting.
