Highview Arts Center is proud to announce the launch of "Originals Night," a captivating showcase featuring two distinct one-act plays that have been developed from last year's highly acclaimed Ten Minute New Play Festival (now named Quick Quills). This exciting event promises to deliver an evening of innovative storytelling and creative prowess, showcasing the emerging talent of playwrights Taylor Vetter and Erin Fitzgerald.
"Feng Shui," penned by Taylor Vetter, offers audiences a darkly comedic exploration of the life of a murderous robot navigating the challenges of urban living. Set against the backdrop of a bustling cityscape, this thought-provoking piece delves into themes of adaptation, identity, and the unexpected twists of fate.
In contrast, "Baggage Claim," written by Erin Fitzgerald, takes theatergoers on a whimsical journey through the mundane yet surprisingly insightful world of inanimate objects. As two pieces of luggage patiently await their owners at the airport, they embark on a hilarious and heartwarming adventure, observing the quirks and idiosyncrasies of the diverse array of passengers passing through.

The Louisville Metro Department of Public Health and Wellness is offering free radon test kits while the supply lasts.
Radon is an odorless, colorless, radioactive gas. It is also the second leading cause of lung cancer in the United States. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Surgeon General’s office estimate radon is responsible for more than 21,000 lung cancer deaths each year. Since it is difficult to identify any immediate symptoms related to radon exposure, it may take years before health problems appear.
You should test your home’s radon levels:
- If it’s never been tested or radon levels are unknown.
- When preparing to buy or sell.
- Before and after any renovations, especially after making any repairs to reduce radon levels.
- Before making any lifestyle changes in the home that would cause someone to spend more time in the basement or lower level (like converting a basement to a bedroom).
Having your home tested is the only effective way to determine whether you or your family is at risk of radon exposure.
For more information about receiving a free radon test kit, please contact us at loumetrohealth@louisvilleky.gov or visit our radon website.
The CDC also provides information on testing and reducing radon in your home. Contact your state radon control office for resources and help finding a qualified radon reduction contractor.
