Will flute for food
Anchorage-born flutist Tabatha Easley, now playing professionally and teaching at Virginia Commonwealth University, will return to her hometown for a recital at 4 p.m. on Sunday at First Congregational Church, 2610 E. Northern Lights Blvd. Easley will perform music by Bartok, Hindemith and C.P.E. Bach, among others, and she will be joined by two of her former teachers, Corinne McVee and Sharon Nowak, along with the redoubtable Laura Koenig and Janet Stiles. Admission will be by food -- that is to say, either canned goods or a cash donation for the Food Bank of Alaska.

Bathos at Bear fest
Just in time for the Bear Paw Festival, the Alaska Fine Arts Academy presents "Evil Escapades in Eagle River." Described as "a melodrama of tragic proportions," Tim Kelly's script bubbles with all the vivid stock characters -- a hapless hero, wily villain, resourceful heroine -- with goofball silliness, tunes and plenty of audience interaction. Tickets are $15, $8 for children (and this show comes highly recommended for kids), available at www,akfinearts.org. Showtimes are 7 p.m. Thursday-Saturday through July 18 at the Eleanor Braendel Theater, 12340 Old Glenn Highway in Eagle River. For information, call 694-8909.

Sisters at sea
The next chapter in the "Nunsense" series, "Meshuggah-Nuns," has the women on an Alaska cruise when the whole cast of "Fiddler on the Roof" gets sick -- except the Tevye. The sisters come to the rescue with mangled lyrics, bungled magic acts and humor bordering on the sacrilegious. Krista Schwarting directs a cast featuring Scarlet Kittylee Boudreaux, Erin Peterson, Jessica Bowman, Erika Johnson and, as the guy who plays Tevye, John Fraser. Catch the boat at Cyrano's, 413 D St., with shows at 7 p.m. Thursday-Saturday and 3 p.m. Sunday through Aug. 16. Tickets are $16 at centertix.net.
