Maybe you need the arts even more when you've been laid off. If so, you're in luck because tickets at Kumu Kahua Theatre are only $5 on Thursdays with "proof of unemployment." Other Thursday discounts include senior ($11) and student ($5) tickets. Everybody else pays a discounted $13 on Thursdays to see plays, by Hawai'i playwrights, about life in Hawai'i. Playing now: "The Statehood Project." Coming next: "Voices From Okinawa."

A-Z AND THE FAMILY TREE
BLOGS KEEP THE FOCUS ON FAMILY
If you're raising a family or prefer to experience the highs and lows of parenthood vicariously, head over to www.honoluluadvertiser.com/blogs to read The A-Z Files and Family Tree blogs. The latter, by assistant features editor Treena Shapiro, focuses on kids and other bright shiny objects, while the former, by Zenaida Serrano and her husband, Andreas Arvman, touches on marriage, parenting and anything else of interest that falls between A and Z.
