Summer, my favorite season! If you are not familiar with this site, each week I take a look at events and happenings in The Valley and choose three things that look adventurous from Aspen down to Glenwood Springs. Here are my picks of the week: Dave Chappelle Show, Snowmass Free Concert Series, and my second favorite dog, Snoopy, is featured in a musical at Theatre Aspen.

A new musical featuring Charles Schulz's iconic “Peanuts” characters Charlie Brown, Sally, Peppermint Patty, Lucy, Linus and Woodstock, under the guidance of that consummate showman Snoopy, as they sing and dance their way through witty philosophies about love and life as only The Peanuts gang can. In addition to a beloved score featuring songs like "Just One Person,” "Edgar Allan Poe,” and "Poor Sweet Baby," this revusical introduces a new song for Sally with music by award-winning composer Larry Grossman (Minnie's Boys, Goodtime Charley) and lyrics by award-winning composer/lyricist Andrew Lippa (You're A Good Man, Charlie Brown Broadway Revival, Big Fish, Addam’s Family). With fresh orchestrations and a revised book, audiences can expect The Peanuts characters to dance into their hearts more than ever before! Based on the comic strip “PEANUTS” by Charles M. Schulz
