Harry is all grown up, facing the same challenges we all do but mix mood swings with magic and you have yourself an explosive theatre experience that will make you feel nostalgic, maybe even a bit old, but it will also get the waterworks going.
5. HUMP! Festival, Feb 20 -29

It’s a porn festival, but not the kind from Girl Next Door. It’s more of a celebration of body types, shapes, ages, colors, sexualities, genders, kinks, and fetishes-all united by a shared spirit of sex-positivity. HUMP! is welcome to watch these 5-minute films that will scare you, gross you out, turn you on, make you laugh and even cry.
7. Sonoma County Restuarant Week, Feb 20
