Belfast is a movie straight from director Kenneth Branagh's own experience. A nine-year-old boy must chart a path towards adulthood through a world that has suddenly turned upside down. His stable and loving community and everything he thought he understood about life is changed forever but joy, laughter, music and the formative magic of the movies remain.

In 1965 writer/activist James Baldwin and conservative arbiter William F. Buckley, Jr. were invited to the UK’s Cambridge University Union to debate the resolution “The American Dream is at the Expense of The American Negro.” The groundbreaking Obie-winning NYC theater troupe, Elevator Repair Service, re-creates Baldwin and Buckley's profoundly relevant confrontation in Baldwin and Buckley at Cambridge.
The rapt audience at the Cambridge debate match voted Baldwin the winner by a vote of 544-164. Despite the victory, Baldwin felt stung by the encounter, calling Buckley “the intellectuals' James Bond.” Buckley, never one to admit defeat, called the night at Cambridge, "the most satisfying debate I ever had.”
Baldwin and Buckley at Cambridge had its first work-in-progress showings in January of 2020 at Abrons Art Center’s Underground Theater. Our staging will be a virtual presentation recorded at Montclair State College - followed by a live interactive virtual conversation/Q & A with the show’s director, John Collins and actors, including April Matthis, Gavin Price, Greig Sargeant, Christopher Rashee Stevenson and Ben Williams.
Founded in 1991 by Artistic Director John Collins, Elevator Repair Service (ERS) creates original works with an ongoing ensemble. ERS’s theater pieces are built round a broad range of subject matter and literary forms; they combine elements of slapstick comedy, hi-tech and lo-tech design, both literary and found text, and the group’s own highly developed style of choreography.
ERS creates its performances through extended periods of collaboration. A typical development cycle includes 4-6 intensive work periods within a 2-year period, which conclude with work-in-progress showings. Time off between development is filled with touring and presentations of finished works. Following completion, the piece is presented in NYC for an extended run and is toured throughout the US and abroad.
ERS creations include their critically-acclaimed 2010 production of Gatz, adapted from the Great Gatsby. Lead NY Times theater critic, Ben Brantley called it “The most remarkable achievement in theater not only of this year but also of this decade.”
"The famous Baldwin-Buckley debate still matters today. In 1965, two American titans faced off on the subject of the country’s racial divides. Nearly 55 years later, the event has lost none of its relevance.”—The Atlantic

Founded in 1945 on the heels of postwar Polish independence in Gdańsk, the Polish Baltic Philharmonic is the largest music institution in northern Poland. One might think that long periods of political turbulence may have weakened the arts in Gdańsk, yet the reality is quite the opposite. The Polish Baltic Philharmonic, as it exists and thrives today, represents an amalgamation of international and historical influences, while still capturing the pride and artistry of contemporary Poland and the larger Baltic Sea coast.
This feast of orchestra music will include Rossini’s Overture to La Gazza Ladra (The Silken Ladder); Tchaikovsky’s Violin Concerto in D Major, Op. 35; and Beethoven’s Symphony no 5.
“It’s been a long time since I’ve seen and heard such clarity. The common idea was upheld by the exceptionally beautiful sound of the orchestra adjusted by the conductor to the musical poetry of the soloist”. — Gazeta Wyborcza

Aretha Franklin’s legendary career spanned several generations and a multitude of genres. “The Queen of Soul” grew up in the Baptist congregations of Detroit, where she first developed her talent for expressive and powerful vocals that propelled her to international stardom. Beloved by musicians and listeners alike, Aretha is recognized as the most successful female recording artist in history with 112 charted singles on Billboard, 18 Grammy Awards, and more than 75 million records sold.
Musician, vocalist, and composer Damien Sneed toured with Aretha during her later years, developing a strong relationship with the soul legend. In this special tribute, Sneed pays homage to the monarch herself with fresh renditions of her most cherished hits including Respect, Knew You Were Waiting, Bridge Over Troubled Water, Precious Memories, Think, Until You Come Back To Me, Daydreaming, Freeway, Natural Woman, and others. Backed by a stellar cast of jazz, gospel, and soul musicians and vocalists, Damien Sneed’s multi-media tribute offers a tender and spiritual reflection upon the life of an iconic music titan.
Six-time Grammy Award-nominee Valerie Simpson will sing Franklin’s iconic songs, showing a deep reverence to Franklin’s talent while endowing them with her own power. Simpson is a major star in her own rite, through her partnership with Nick Ashford (Ashford and Simpson). Valerie’s songwriting credits include Ain't No Mountain High Enough, You're All I Need to Get By, Ain't Nothing Like the Real Thing, Reach Out and Touch Somebody’s Hand and many more, including multiple hits for Aretha Franklin.
Simpson has also written and performed for Marvin Gaye, The Four Tops, Diana Ross, Ray Charles, The Temptations, Gladys Knight and the Pips, Chaka Khanh, Smokey Robinson, Martha and The Vandellas, Paul Simon and many others. Her work as featured soloist includes mega hits What’s Going On (w/ Marvin Gaye), Fifty Ways to Leave Your Lover (Paul Simon) and Bridge Over Troubled Waters (Simon and Garfunkel). She even produced Tina Turner’s signature recording of “River Deep/Mountain High."
"Valerie Simpson is the voice of truth. The melodies and chord progressions she renders on the piano reflect an intimate understanding of the heart. When she sings, her connection with listeners goes beyond notes. It’s one soul speaking to another.”
"As a composer and producer, Simpson sparked a body of work that remains unrivaled in its scope and power. Indeed, the songs Ashford & Simpson penned and produced are more than timeless hits. They’re paragons of popular music.” - Pop Matters

Since marrying in 2002, two of Canada’s brightest stars have been captivating audiences all over North America with their exceptional musical skills and obvious joy at playing the fiddle together. Natalie MacMaster and Donnell Leahy have received both industry-acclaim and a loyal fan base by combining their magnificent individual talents, giving audiences an unforgettable musical experience every performance.
Being part of musical families, Natalie and Donnell were born into their musical careers. Hailing from Cape Breton Island, Natalie received her first fiddle at the age of nine, launching a career that has lasted for more than 30 years. Her first recording was released when she was only 16 and she has never looked back. MacMaster's many projects include collaborations with Alison Krauss, Carlos Santana, the Chieftains, Paul Simon, Pavarotti, and Yo-Yo Ma. Her live performances are a testament to her incandescent musicianship and boundless energy, featuring foot-tapping rave-ups, heart-rending ballads, and world-class step dancing.
Perfecting his astonishing talent since the age of three, Donnell has literally spent his entire life with a fiddle in his hand. His parents, a fiddle-playing father from Ontario and a step-dancing mother from Cape Breton, were his source of inspiration and guidance. His mesmerizingly exultant and high-energy performances have become Donnell Leahy’s musical signature.
“Flying notes, fast-paced jigs, reels and polkas, paint can percussion and Gaelic lyrics, original music and tunes from Scotland, Ireland, the Maritimes, and elsewhere, piano, bagpipes, guitar, accordion, and of course fiddles: all those, in the hands and spirits of these gifted musicians.” — Music Road

For the last thirty-two years, The Peking Acrobats have redefined audience perceptions of Chinese acrobatics. They perform daring maneuvers atop a precarious pagoda of chairs and display their technical prowess at such arts as trick-cycling, precision tumbling, juggling, somersaulting, and gymnastics. They push the limits of human ability, defying gravity with amazing displays of contortion, flexibility, and
The Peking Acrobats are part of a time-honored Chinese tradition, rooted in centuries of Chinese history and folk art. Tradition demands that each generation of acrobats add its own improvements and embellishments; because of this, high honor is conferred upon those skilled enough to become acrobats. The Peking Acrobats seek to uphold this rich and ancient folk art tradition, bringing it to new technical heights while integrating twenty-first century technology.
The Peking Acrobats have been featured on television shows including Nickelodeon’s Unfabulous, Ellen’s Really Big Show (hosted by Ellen DeGeneres), The Wayne Brady Show, That’s Incredible, ABC’s Wide World of Sports, and NBC’s Ring In The New Year Holiday Special. They set the world record for the Human Chair Stack on FOX Network’s Guinness Book Primetime television show in 1999: they balanced six people precariously atop six chairs twenty-one feet up in the air without safety lines, astounding audiences with their bravery and dexterity.

The Queen’s Cartoonists are 6 world-class jazz players who perform fabulous and often funny music for classic cartoons and contemporary animation. The stars are the musicians – along with Betty Boop, Elmer Fudd, Bugs Bunny, Popeye the Sailor and more. The performances are synchronized to video projections of the original films, and the band leads the audience through a world of virtuosic musicianship, multi-instrumental mayhem, and comedy.
Behind the project is a single question: Is it possible to create jazz and classical music in the 21st century that appeals to everyone? Even people who normally wouldn’t go to concerts? The Queen’s Cartoonists present a concert for everybody – regardless of age, gender, or anything else.
Tying this diverse concert together are comedic anecdotes involving the cartoons and their composers. This band is on a musical mission of equal parts performance, preservation, and education. Expect the unexpected from a repertoire that includes the Golden Age of animation, cult cartoon classics, modern animation, and elements of a musical circus. Then add a special focus on cartoons and music that celebrate the holidays!
Since their inception in 2015, The Queen’s Cartoonists have brought their unique sound to performing arts centers in more than 20 states and have opened for the New York Philharmonic and others. The 6 members, all currently living in Queens, New York, are world-class professional musicians. The band has been featured in numerous major publications, including The Wall Street Journal, The Chicago Tribune, Mashable, and on NPR.
“As I watched The Queen’s Cartoonists slip and slide through decades of cartoon music, I followed a captivated crowd of young and old – the pleasure of the perfect synchrony of sound and pictures was instantly recognizable.” - Mashable
“Who needs another Broadway show when you can hire a jazz combo playing music from Bugs Bunny cartoons?” - The Wall Street Journal

Stile Antico is firmly established as one of the world’s most accomplished and innovative vocal ensembles. Working without a conductor, its twelve members have thrilled audiences on four continents with their fresh, vibrant and moving performances of Renaissance polyphony. Its bestselling recordings have earned accolades including the Gramophone Award for Early Music, Diapason d’or de l’année, Edison Klassiek Award, and Preis der deutschen Schallplattenkritik. The group has received three Grammy nominations, and performed live at the 60th Grammy Awards at Madison Square Garden. Based in London, Stile Antico has also appeared at many of the world’s most prestigious venues and festivals. The group enjoys a particularly close association with Wigmore Hall, and has performed at the BBC Proms, Buckingham Palace, Amsterdam Concertgebouw, the Palais des Beaux-Arts, Cité de la Musique, Luxembourg Philharmonie, and Leipzig Gewandhaus.
Stile Antico’s performances are often praised for their immediacy, expressive commitment, and their sensitive and imaginative response to text. These qualities arise from the group’s collaborative working style: members rehearse and perform as chamber musicians, each contributing artistically to the musical results. The group is also noted for its compelling programming, which seeks to draw out thematic connections between works to shine new light on Renaissance music.

When Australian composer Brett Dean’s Hamlet had its world premiere at the Glyndebourne Festival in 2017, The Guardian declared, “New opera doesn’t often get to sound this good … Shakespeare offers a gauntlet to composers that shouldn’t always be picked up, but Dean’s Hamlet rises to the challenge.” On June 4, this riveting contemporary masterpiece appears live in cinemas, with Neil Armfield, who directed the work’s premiere, bringing his acclaimed staging to the Met. Many of the original cast members have followed, including tenor Allan Clayton in the title role. Nicholas Carter makes his Met debut conducting a remarkable ensemble, which also features soprano Brenda Rae as Ophelia, mezzo-soprano Sarah Connolly as Gertrude, baritone Rod Gilfry as Claudius, and legendary bass John Tomlinson as the ghost of Hamlet’s father.

Emmy-winning comedian Paula Poundstone is famous for her razor-sharp wit and spontaneity, drawing from her own complex life: three kids, 13 cats, motherhood, demanding job, crazy travel schedule, her frustration at getting older, and a bag of neuroses, including her famous inability to ever shut up. Then, add a year in quarantine and imagine the outcome.
In other words: she’s just like many of us.
One of Comedy Central’s “Greatest Stand-Ups of All Time,” Paula Poundstone was a frequent guest on Leno, Letterman and A Prairie Home Companion. And she remains a leading staple of NPR’s show, Wait Wait! Don’t Tell Me! Poundstone is so quick that audience members often leave complaining that their cheeks hurt from laughter.
“Poundstone improvises with a crowd like a jazz musician, swinging in unexpected directions without a net.” – Boston Globe
