Ready to Swing
"Come Blow Your Horn," Neil Simon's first play, will come to the Southampton Cultural Center for a two-week run starting on Friday at 7 p.m. The comedy tells the story of Buddy, a 21-year-old virgin, who, much to his parents' horror, leaves their home for the Upper East Side bachelor pad of his swinging 30-ish brother, Alan.
The New York Times review of the play, which premiered on Broadway in 1961 and ran for 677 performances, praised it as "smoothly plotted and deftly written" with "some explosively hilarious moments rooted in character."
The Southampton production is directed by Josephine Teresi-Wallace and stars Lance Schroeder, James Kelly, Matthew O'Connor, Bonnie Grice, Alyssa Kelly, and Sophia Teresi-Wallace, plus a cameo appearance by a local actor.
Performances will take place Fridays at 7, Saturdays at 2 and 7, and Sundays at 3, through March 5. Tickets are $35, $25 for students under 21.

Art and Wellness
The Healing Arts program at the Watermill Center is a series of workshops and guided meditations that offer community members the opportunity to explore the intersection of art and wellness through hands-on activities with a rotating roster of artists.
Sylvia Channing, an East End artist and yoga instructor, will be on hand Saturday morning at 10 to guide participants through the five yogic self-care principles. She draws from nature, personal experience, and inspiration from mentors and friends to design her classes, which aim to facilitate each student's unique exploration of their body and breath.
The cost is $25, with registration through the center's website.
Live Jazz in Sag
Jazz Night at the Masonic Temple in Sag Harbor will feature a performance by Billy Drewes on saxophone, Bill O'Connell on piano, Peter Brendler on bass, and Claes Brondal on drums on Tuesday evening at 7. The series, courtesy of the Jam Session, draws from among the best jazz musicians in the New York area.
The temple suggests a donation of $15, all proceeds from which benefit local charities.
