Theatre and Classes

All the world's a stage but especially Davis right now. Davis High's production of Standing on Ceremony opens this weekend and Harper Junior High's Hairspray opens the next. Next week are also auditions for Acme Theatre's spring show The Jungle Book (a modern version) which are open to all 9th-12th graders. Rocket talks about meeting the Hairspray cast at Harper literally half an hour ago and talking to them about theatre opportunities at the high school. These opportunities include DHS Drama and Acme but also classes like stagecraft and drama that DJUSD students may want to consider enrolling in before they submit their course request applications. Rocket also talks about his experiences at the debate tournament he attended this past weekend. There are, of course, bad jokes too.

Davisville, March 6, 2017: A Public Health Perspective on Legal Marijuana

Now that Californians have legalized recreational marijuana, Davis is deciding how that change will play out here. Are retail dispensaries OK? How about outdoor growing? Cities and counties across the state face similar decisions. Two weeks ago we talked about Davis’ efforts to collect ideas and comments as City Hall begins to write the city ordinance. Two weeks from now, we'll present an interview with a marijuana advocate. For today's program we talk with Dr. Ron Chapman, Yolo County public health officer, to get his take on legal pot—what research says, lessons from Colorado (which legalized marijuana before California did), the importance of education in keeping marijuana away from kids and youths, ideas for local ordinances, and more.
