Gaiety Productions presents Arthur Miller’s classic Tony Award-Winning ‘The Crucible’. THE DEVIL IS ALIVE IN SALEM. It’s 1692 and the puritan town of Salem, Massachusetts is gripped by mass hysteria. A lie from a young girl, heightened by an adulterous affair, leads the community to accusations of witchcraft and a spiral of condemnation. A gripping story of innocent men and women destroyed by malicious rumours, Arthur Miller’s classic Tony Award-Winning parable *The Crucible* is a powerful and timely look at what can happen to a society when fear and paranoia take over. One of the most popular plays ever written, this text remains a cornerstone of American literature and calls for an urgent reflection on justice, integrity, and the collective conscience.

# Happy Ever After in Discussion Free Event - [Ticket](https://moli.ie/events/happy-ever-after-in-discussion) Required For centuries, Irish romance fiction has engaged swiftly with cultural transformations, allowing its characters a satisfying resolution through the genre’s “happy ever after”. Young Adult (YA) romance, which is targeted at teens but has a large adult readership, takes many forms and might focus on contemporary life, political history, or myth and fantasy. These popular novels show readers how young people encounter difference, manage difficulty, and embrace love amid challenges past and present. Join us on on Saturday, 14 February, from 7pm to 8.30pm for a discussion with Adiba Jaigidar, Sue Divin and Helen Corcoran in conversation with Prof. Paige Reynolds on YA romance fiction on Saturday, 14 February, from 7pm to 8.30pm. They'll discuss how their young characters navigate changing times and consider how the familiar narrative structure of romance with its "happy ever after" invites readers into new ways of thinking. The discussion will last approximately 45 minutes with a reception to follow.

#### Turning Rentals Into Income: How Investors Pay Off Properties Faster #### **Featuring Guest Speaker: John Blackburn** **👉 Get your FREE TICKET [HERE](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/turning-rentals-into-income-how-investors-pay-off-properties-faster-tickets-1980492192461?aff=cicmeetupapp)** #### A lot of people get into real estate because they want freedom. Then they buy a rental…and realize most of the rent goes straight to the bank. They technically own property, but the mortgage controls the income. And waiting 30 years for properties to be paid off doesn’t feel realistic. This meetup is about understanding a different way to think about rental properties… one that focuses on paying them off sooner so the income is actually usable. **Featured Guest Speaker: John Blackburn** We’re excited to welcome John Blackburn as our guest speaker for this event. John has been actively investing in real estate since 2006 and has: * Been involved in **5,000+ real estate transactions** * Helped investors **acquire over $150 million in rental property** * **Raised more than $100 million** in private capital John didn’t start with family money or shortcuts. He built his portfolio by focusing on clear systems, real numbers, and long-term strategy. For this meetup, John will walk through how investors shift their focus from simply owning rentals to building properties that eventually pay them…without a mortgage attached. **What You’ll Learn** John will break down, in simple terms: * Why most rental properties don’t produce much usable income early on * Why buying more rentals isn’t always the answer * How investors structure their properties to pay off mortgages in a fraction of the time * How properties can work together to eliminate debt faster * What changes once rentals become free and clear This approach is often referred to as an accelerated paydown strategy — using rental income intentionally to reduce debt sooner, rather than waiting decades for mortgages to run their course. John will also share a simple calculator you can use to see how this works with real numbers and realistic scenarios. **The Core Idea** When a rental has a mortgage, the rent has one job: **pay the bank.** When a rental is paid off, the rent has a different job: **pay you.** Most people only see one timeline…30 years. This session shows how investors shorten that timeline and gradually increase their income as properties become free and clear. **Who This Event Is For** This event is for people who want more than just “owning rentals” on paper. * Rental owners who are tired of most of the rent going to the bank and want a clearer path to real, usable income * New investors who want to understand how rental properties actually build wealth over time before jumping in * People with capital who want to invest in real estate with intention and a long-term plan * Anyone serious about freedom and curious how rental properties transition from debt-heavy assets into income-producing ones **Event Details** **Location:** Ohio Brewing Company - 421 E 2nd Ave, Columbus, OH 43201 **Date & Time:** January 25th, 6–8 PM (Doors open at 5:30) **Cost:** Free (Seats are limited - RSVP required) **👉 Get your FREE TICKET [HERE](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/turning-rentals-into-income-how-investors-pay-off-properties-faster-tickets-1980492192461?aff=cicmeetupapp)** If you’ve ever wondered how rental properties actually turn into freedom —this is the room to be in.
