Relive the Glory Days with ...Vince: The Life and Times of Vince Lombardi
Starring John Pinero!
Green Bay Packers legendVince Lombardi is broughtto life in a one‐man show on
the OAC's Main Stage!
Saturday, October 24at 7:30 p.m.
Stage, screen and televisionactor, director and motivationalspeaker, John Pinero wrote andstars in his one‐man play aboutWisconsin's legendary GreenBay Packers coach, VinceLombardi
From the golden overcoat to the horn‐rimmed glasses, Pinero'sinterpretation of coach Vince Lombardi not only aims to motivate, butalso brings back a rush of memories highlighting football's glory days.
"I'm really proud of this show. I remember performing as Vince and abunch of his players were sitting in the front row, including RayNitschke and at the end they all stood up and cheered. It's not just aplay about football, it's a play about an American dream," said Pinero.
Pinero's contagious and inspiring portrayal of Vince Lombardi has alsoearned him keynote speaking engagements at the Pro Football Hall ofFame, the Green Bay Packer Hall of Fame, and he was featured in ABC's2006 Pre‐Game Super Bowl promotional ads. For more information,visit www.vincelombardi.net.
"I know my program said Lombardi was being played by John Pinero,but I didn't fall for that. That was Vince Lombardi up there on stage."

Artist with disability finds healing through painting
Stasia is a person living with a disability. Using a wheelchair to get around and acommunication device to speak, Stasia never allows her disabilities to stop herfrom following her dreams. She is a graduate of Oconomowoc High School andthe University of Wisconsin‐Whitewater with a bachelor's degree in art.
The school shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary in Newtown, Connecticut onDecember 14, 2012 that left 20 children and six adults dead had a deep impacton the artist.
