"Wild Women Unite for the Cure"
With Deborah Henson-Conant
Benefit Concert • 8:00 pm • all tickets $30
(General Admission)

May 5, 2005, 8pm

General Admission: $30

FOUR CONCERTS - ONE WEEKEND - BOSTON AREA!
It started out as a single Saturday night show, Deborah’s Annual Birthday party we couldn’t find time for last November. Since it fell about 6-months late, we planned to call it the “Birthday Bash-and-a-Half.” But then it started growing ... Now the weekend includes four shows: a Thursday night “Wild Woman” benefit for cancer research, two solo shows (Friday & Saturday night) and a very special Mother’s Day brunch on Sunday, with members of the Boston Classical Orchestra, conducted by Steven Lipsitt.

SO WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE SHOWS?
THURSDAY: Wild Women Unite for the Cure - Benefit: The “Wild Women Unite” show in 2003 was a very intimate concert with special guests, inspiration, camaraderie and some funny, moving stories. 90% of the proceeds benefit the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation and the Avon Foundation (the other 10% goes to pay for operating costs of the concert itself). For more, see www.HipHarp.com. [Tix $30]

FRIDAY & SATURDAY: are the Birthday parties Deborah didn’t get to have last November -- so if you’ve ever been to a DHC Birthday Bash, you know what’s in store! If not, visit HipHarp.com for more info. [Tix $22.50]

SUNDAY - Mother’s Day Matinee with members of the Boston Classical Orchestra. This is a sneak preview of some of the material Deborah will record on her DVD project this fall. The ensemble for this concert is: string quartet, flute, clarinet, bass, percussion -- and maybe Tuba. Don’t miss it!

"Wild Woman of the Harp," "Team Wild Women Outfitters" Breast Cancer walk training team ,and "Wild Women Outfiitters" retail store have teamed up with the Regent Theatre to try to raise more than $10,000 for cancer research in one evening concert May 5th in Arlington.

This year they will have over 100 women to join them to walk and fundraise for this cause. They hope to raise over $500,000 as a team. You can make a difference, so please join them for this incredible evening and come together for a great cause with Deborah Henson-Conant . 90% of the evening's ticket sales will go to the Avon Foundation and the Susan G.
