Beyond Broadway: A Celebration of Love in Song with Lauren Kennedy and Alan Campbell
September 25, 2010
A sizzling evening of music performed with panache by a pair of critically acclaimed Broadway, film and television stars. Showstoppers from Broadway, standards from the great American songbook, swing numbers, country classics and rock ‘n’ roll!
Pianafiddle
November 12, 2010
Is it bluegrass? Is it jazz? Is it classical, old time, ragtime, or blues? If Pianafiddle is performing, the answer is YES! Beginning only with a familiar tune, violinist/fiddler Adam DeGraff and pianist Randy Morris improvise as they go, blending the traditional, the unwritten and the spontaneous, ranging from Bach to bluegrass.
Galumpha
March 5, 2011
Combining stunning acrobatics, striking visual effects, physical comedy and inventive choreography, Galumpha brings to life a world of imagination, beauty, muscle and merriment. A sensory feast of images ranging from the ridiculous to the sublime, drawn together into a seamless whole, consistently brings audiences to their feet.
Carrie Newcomer
April 9, 2011
Describing Carrie Newcomer as a singer-songwriter is a little like saying Noah was a boat-builder. One of the definitive voices of the Heartland, the Indiana native sings of the small joys and pains in life, emphasizing the little moments that are often taken for granted as she illuminates life with startling depth, humor and clarity.
