SUMMARY:Laughing With Me! - Improv workshops with Michael O’Keefe (Adults 18 & up)
DESCRIPTION:Laughing With Me! is the ASD program that is filled with fast-paced\, interactive fun!! Students think of communication issues like a game!! They will become flexible within these experiences. The outcome being that now they won’t break\, but simply bend. They also learn that it’s OK to fail. It’s simply a part of life that’s ultimately not a big deal. Also\, a common occurrence of the program is an understanding of a special kind of laughter that gives a boost to self-confidence and creates a feeling of camaraderie. This is called “earned laughter”\, because the students realize that they have done something funny on purpose\, in a setting that promotes and encourages that behavior. Delve into the ASD workshop where we look at how we handle what comes our way – expected or not! Add in the great fun and team spirit built into our games. We’ll be playing with both our strengths and our quirks.\n\nMike O’Keeffe is a teaching artist with The Count Basie Theatre\, and has been performing and teaching improv comedy professionally for over 25 years. He received his M.A. in Education from Monmouth University in 1996\, and has been a public school teacher for 20 years. He has done regional improv touring shows with former troupe-mate Wayne Brady\, and has traveled across the country performing corporate comedy and team-building. Recently\, he presented a TED Talk on the concept of “Play” called “Using Improv to Become a Better Human”. He is an Adjunct Professor at Monmouth University\, where he teaches Critical Discourse. This spring\, he was a keynote speaker at the National Youth Leadership Council’s\, “More Powerful Together” conference in Washington DC\, which brought together educational leaders and future educators. He was a speaker at Princeton University this summer\, where he demonstrated how to integrate performing arts into their Common Core Curricula.\n\nFree but registration is required.

SUMMARY:The Mitzvah
DESCRIPTION:The Mitzvah (“The Good Deed”) is a one-person play that dramatically explores one of the most shocking stories of the Second World War. More than a hundred thousand German men — classified as “mischlinge” (the derogatory term the Nazis used to describe those descended from one or two Jewish grandparents) — fought in the German armed forces. After the play there will be a post-performance lecture and audience discussion led by Grunwald.  \nThe story of one such mischling is at the center of The Mitzvah and actor (and child of survivor) Roger Grunwald seamlessly transforms himself into an array of characters to tell that story. In addition to Christoph (the “mischling”)\, other characters include Schmuel\, a Polish Jew from Bialystok and the play’s Chorus who offers edgy commentary that probes the boundary between the absurd and the horrific. The Mitzvah is a touching and tragic tale told in a powerful one-act solo performance created by Grunwald and Broadway veteran Annie McGreevey. \nThe Mitzvah adds to the historical narratives about The Holocaust at a time when few survivors remain to tell their stories to younger generations and was inspired by the lives of Grunwald’s mother and aunt\, survivors of Auschwitz and Bergen-Belsen\, respectively. It premiered at the Emerging Artists Theatre’s “Illuminating Artists: One Man Talking” festival in New York City and is currently being presented in theaters\, universities and Jewish organizations around the country. \nThrough one soldier’s story\, The Mitzvah reveals the startling history of tens of thousands of “partial Jews” who served in Hitler’s military\, most of whom were discharged in 1940. Nearly all were sent to forced labor camps — or worse. However\, a few thousand who had an “Aryan appearance” and who were deemed by the Reich to be “valuable to the war effort\,” were exempted from the Nazi race laws. A “Declaration of German Blood” (a Deutschblütigkeitserklärung) — signed by Hitler himself — allowed these select few thousand mischlinge to fight for the Nazi cause. Most died in battle. \n“… The Mitzvah is an important piece of cultural discourse as well as a marvelous piece of theater… by a gifted and versatile playwright and performer.”\n– Rabbi Shalom M. Paltiel\, Chabad of Port Washington

An erroneous tip called into law enforcement authorities in 2002 subjected Elahi to an intensive investigation by the FBI and after undergoing months of interrogations\, he was finally cleared of suspicions. After this harrowing experience\, Elahi conceived “Tracking Transience” and opened just about every aspect of his life to the public. Predating the NSA’s PRISM surveillance program by half a decade\, the project questions the consequences of living under constant surveillance and continuously generates databases of imagery that tracks the artist and his points of transit in real-time. Although\ninitially created for his FBI agent\, the public can also monitor the artist’s communication records\, banking transactions\, and transportation logs along with various intelligence and government agencies who have been confirmed visiting his website. \nElahi’s work has been presented in numerous exhibitions at venues such as SITE Santa Fe\, Centre Georges Pompidou\, Sundance Film Festival\, and at the Venice Biennale. Elahi has spoken to audiences as diverse as the Tate Modern\, American Association of Artificial Intelligence\, International Association of Privacy Professionals\, TED Global\, and the World Economic Forum. His work is frequently in the media and has appeared on Al Jazeera\, Fox News\, and on The Colbert Report. In addition to receiving a Guggenheim Fellowship in 2016\, his awards include grants from the Creative Capital Foundation in 2006 and Art Matters Foundation in 2011. In 2014\, he was Artist-in-Residence at Shangri-La/Doris Duke Foundation for Islamic Art and in 2009\, Resident Faculty at Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture. He is currently Associate Professor of Art at University of Maryland\, roughly equidistant from the CIA\, FBI\, and NSA headquarters. \nSee attached photo. Image credit: E. Brady Robinson

SUMMARY:Walnut Street Theatre’s Last of the Red Hot Lovers
DESCRIPTION:America in the 1960s\, an era that encouraged LOVE\, was populated by “Mad Men” and “Mod Women” trying to navigate the new normal. In this freshly conceived production of Neil Simon’s classic\, Last of the Red Hot Lovers\, true comedy ensues when a modern man in the hip sixties looks for something new and different\, but ends up finding himself in the same situation\, again and again…and again! \nBarney Cashman is middle-aged\, married\, overworked and overweight. It’s finally his turn to join the sexual revolution… before it’s too late. With no experience in covert maneuvers\, he arranges three attempted trysts. His targets; a bawdy bundle of fun who likes smooth whiskey and other women’s husbands\, a young actress too kooky for words\, and a neurotic housewife who happens to be married to his best friend. And through all the mishaps and laughter\, Barney begins to rediscover his humanity and what he thought was missing all along.\nLast of the Red Hot Lovers had a lengthy run on Broadway and was made into a hit film starring Alan Arkin and Sally Kellerman. \nWalnut Street Theatre\, America’s Oldest Theatre\, celebrated 200 years of great entertainment in 2009. Most noteworthy American actors of the 19th century and many from the 20th century have appeared on stage at the Walnut. Some of the Walnut’s shining stars include: Edwin Forrest\, Edwin Booth\, the Drews\, the Barrymores\, George M. Cohan\, Will Rogers\, The Marx Brothers\, Helen Hayes\, Henry Fonda\, Katharine Hepburn\, Marlon Brando\, Jessica Tandy\, Ethel Waters\, Audrey Hepburn\, Sidney Poitier\, Lauren Bacall\, George C. Scott\, Jane Fonda\, Robert Redford\, Julie Harris\, Jack Lemon\, and William Shatner. \nThe theatre has been home to many pre-Broadway try-outs of plays that would go on to become American classics\, such as A Streetcar Named Desire starring Marlon Brando\, A Raisin in the Sun featuring Sydney Poitier\, The Diary of Anne Frank featuring Susan Strasberg\, Mister Roberts\, starring Henry Fonda\, and Neil Simon’s first Broadway play\, Come Blow Your Horn. \nThe Walnut began its most recent incarnation as a self-producing\, non-profit regional theatre when Bernard Havard took the helm in 1982\, founding the Walnut Street Theatre Company with a vision of once again creating theatre in a space that is so steeped in the American theatre’s traditions and history. Today\, you can experience the realization of that dream when you attend a live performance. With over 56\,000 subscribers annually\, Walnut Street Theatre is the most subscribed theatre company in the world. For additional information about Walnut Street Theatre: Visit WalnutStreetTheatre.org. \n“Delightfully hilarious and witty\, as well as filled with wisdom about human nature…an uproariously funny author. But he is far more than that. He has a mellow and compassionate understanding of how weak and essentially well meaning mankind behaves…a genuinely brilliant play.”- New York Post

SUMMARY:Drones by Karina Aguilera Skvirsky
DESCRIPTION:Lecture: Feb. 2\, from 4:30 – 5:30 p.m. in  Wilson Hall Auditorium \nOpening reception: Friday\, Feb. 2\, from 5:30 – 7:00 p.m. \nDrones are in the news. They carry out targeted killings; they are manned with cameras to record movements on the ground; hobbyists fly them in public spaces; Amazon wants to use them to deliver their products. Appropriating visual juxtapositions from the surrealists and kitsch sic-fi invasion films\, Drones is a series of photo-collages that put flying objects into our aerial landscapes. \nThis series includes landscapes from US\, Ecuador and other unidentifiable locations. “The Drones” function like a photographic bricolage of buildings. The cut of a scissors and Photoshop suggest something crucial about Drones: their immediate extraterrestrial appearance places them in a space between reality and fiction mirroring our own abstract experience (via the Internet). \nBio: \nKarina Aguilera Skvirsky is a multi-disciplinary artist who works in photography\, video and performance. Her work has been exhibited internationally in group and solo exhibitions. In 2010 she participated in There is always a cup of sea for man to sail\, the 29th Sao Paolo Biennial (2010)\, where she exhibited work from her project\, Memories of Development. In 2015 she was awarded a Fulbright grant and a Jerome Foundation Grant to produce “The Perilous Journey of Maria Palacios”\, a performance based film that will premier in 2016 at the Cuenca Biennial\, Ecuador. Artist in Residence programs she has participated in include: Office Hours\, at El museo del barrio\, NY\, NY; LMCC Workspace\, NY\, NY; MacDowell Residency\, NH; Smackmellon\, Brooklyn\, NY and others. Skvirsky is an Associate Professor at Lafayette College\, Easton\, PA and an MFA faculty member at the The New School\, Parsons School of Design\, NY\, NY. She is represented by DPM Gallery\, Guayaquil\, Ecuador. \nMore about Karina Aguilera Skvirsky’s work on her website at: http://www.karinas.net/

SUMMARY:Rosanne Cash with John Leventhal
DESCRIPTION:Beloved singer-songwriter Rosanne Cash will play a concert featuring music from her acclaimed 2014 album The River & the Thread which garnered 3 Grammy awards in 2015. The recording includes eleven original songs written by Cash and her longtime collaborator—and husband—John Leventhal\, who also served as producer\, arranger\, and guitarist. The River & the Thread evokes the American South’s rich landscape—physical\, musical\, and emotional—and examines the indelible impressions it’s made on our collective culture and on Cash\, who was born in Memphis\, Tennessee. The songs portray a multigenerational cast of characters—from a Civil War soldier off to fight in Virginia\, to a New Deal-era farmer in Arkansas\, to a present-day couple in Alabama. While Cash and Leventhal were inspired by the many musical styles associated with the South—Delta blues\, gospel\, Appalachian folk\, country\, rock\, and others—the resulting collection of songs is contemporary. Cash\, who has just been inducted into the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame\, has recorded fifteen albums and has charted twenty-one top forty country singles\, eleven of which reached number one. A Chicago Tribune reviewer describes Composed\, her 2010 memoir\, as “one of the best accounts of an American life you will likely ever read.”
