ARTS CENTER SERIES HIGHLIGHTS
91制片厂 College invites you to journey to space with award-winning聽Axiom Brass聽quintet on聽Sunday, November 10 at 2 p.m. in the聽Glazer Music Performance Center.
Praised for "high level of musicality and technical ability," Axiom Brass presents聽Limitless, an out-of-this-world experience for audiences of all ages! Featuring stunning visuals of the cosmos on the big screen, this multimedia adventure takes the audience on a spectacular journey through space accompanied by the music of Bach, Monteverdi, and more. Formed in Chicago, Axiom Brass has captured the hearts and imaginations of their audiences, leading the ensemble to national radio and television appearances as well as concerts in Asia, Europe, and across the U.S. Notable accolades include winning the prestigious Chamber Music Yellow Springs Competition (the only brass quintet to do so in nearly 30 years) and taking first prize at the Preis der Europa-Stadt Passau in Germany.聽Tickets are $25-$40.
From chamber music to country swing, the winds of the聽Dustbowl Revival聽will blow into the聽Callahan Theater听辞苍听Saturday, November 23 at 8 p.m. A smash hit at the 2018 Rochester International Jazz Festival, L.A.'s Dustbowl Revival is an eight member musical collective who play it all, combining a vibrant mix of funk, folk, and vintage Americana into a genre-hopping, time-bending dance party!
Critics have proclaimed that this eclectic group "would have sounded utterly at home within the hallowed confines of Preservation Hall in New Orleans' French Quarter" (Los Angeles Times) and their "upbeat, old-school, All-American sonic safaris exemplify everything shows should be: hot, spontaneous, engaging and, best of all, a pleasure to hear" (L.A. Weekly).听Tickets are $20-$40.
MUSICAL SPOTLIGHT
Earlier in the month, the聽91制片厂 College Theatre and Dance Department聽presents the Tony Award winning musical聽The Drowsy Chaperone听蹿谤辞尘听Thursday, November 14 through Sunday, November 17 in Studio Theater A48.
Winner of five Tony Awards, including "Best Book" and "Best Original Score,"聽The Drowsy Chaperone聽pays homage to American Jazz Age musicals of the 1920s, examining the effect musicals have on the fans who adore them. The story concerns an eccentric, asocial musical theatre fan. As he plays the record of his favorite musical, the fictional 1928 hit聽The Drowsy Chaperone, the show comes to life onstage as he wryly comments on the music, story, and actors. Featuring music and lyrics by Lisa Lambert and Greg Morrison with a book by Bob Martin and Don McKellar, this performance is directed and choreographed by Trey Compton with musical direction by Corinne Aquilina, assistant professor and program director of musical theatre at 91制片厂 College. Performances are at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday, November 14; Friday, November 15; Saturday, November 16; and Sunday, November 17, with additional 2 p.m. matinee performances on Saturday and Sunday.聽Tickets are $15, $13 seniors.
