SUMMARY:King Lear
DESCRIPTION:By William Shakespeare \n★★★★★ ‘Ian McKellen reigns supreme in this triumphant production.’ (Daily Telegraph) \nBroadcast live from London’s West End\, see Ian McKellen’s ‘extraordinarily moving portrayal’ (Independent) of King Lear in cinemas. \nChichester Festival Theatre’s production received five-star reviews for its sell-out run\, and transfers to the West End for a limited season.  Jonathan Munby directs this ‘nuanced and powerful’ (The Times) contemporary retelling of Shakespeare’s tender\, violent\, moving and shocking play. \nConsidered by many to be the greatest tragedy ever written\, King Lear sees two ageing fathers – one a King\, one his courtier – reject the children who truly love them.  Their blindness unleashes a tornado of pitiless ambition and treachery\, as family and state are plunged into a violent power struggle with bitter ends. \nShow image photograph (Ian McKellen) by Andy Gotts

SUMMARY:Kiss the Sky
DESCRIPTION:GUITAR GODS – HENDRIX AND CLAPTON! \nKiss The Sky- The World’s Greatest Jimi Hendrix Show plays with special guests Heavy Cream’s salute to Cream. This night will be a trip back in Rock n Roll history as it recreates some of the most iconic music of 1968 produced by the two artists who famously turned a rivalry into friendship and mutual admiration for each other. \nFavorites from Hendrix’s landmark 1968 album “Electric Ladyland” and Cream’s powerhouse “Wheels of Fire” will highlight the evening. \nABOUT KISS THE SKY \nRolling Stone Magazine Says: “Yes believe the hype! This show lives up to it!“ \nThe Village Voice NYC Says: “Bringing Music History To Life.“ \nKiss The Sky-World’s Greatest Jimi Hendrix Show is the #1 Hendrix act in the world. They are so spot on at keeping the memory of Jimi Hendrix alive that remaining members of Hendrix’s own bands have joined them on stage. Earlier this year they were hand picked to perform on the 2018 Flower Power Cruise where they were hailed as the “Buzz of the Boat”. Also on the cruise were rock legends including Micky Dolenz of The Monkees\, Canned Heat and Grand Funk Railroad. \nJimy Bleu stars as Jimi Hendrix and is the world’s longest running Jimi Hendrix Performance Artist. Just like Hendrix\, Jimy Bleu is a virtuoso\, left-handed guitarist and performs all of Hendrix’s signature stage moves. He recreates the legendary sounds and moves of Hendrix so well that he has also been a touring member of Billy Cox’s Band. Billy was the original bass player of Jimi Hendrix’s own Band of Gypsys. \nKiss The Sky WOWS audiences with their Hendrix look and sound alike musicians performing in full replica wardrobe and stage gear.  More then a concert\, the show celebrates all phases of the short yet iconic career and concerts of Jimi Hendrix’s bands The Jimi Hendrix Experience and Band of Gypsys. \nSince 2016 Kiss The Sky has toured nationally to rave reviews playing at venues and festivals across the country. \nBilly Cox\, Hendrix Bassist and band mate with Band Of Gypsys: \n“Jimy Bleu is the real deal. A Jimi Hendrix aficionado” \nJuma Sultan\, Hendrix Percussionist – 1969 Woodstock band – the Gypsy Sun and Rainbows \n“When it comes to performing Jimi’s music\, I don’t impress easily and there is no question that KTS is the most detailed and historically accurate Jimi tribute show I’ve seen. Jimy Bleu truly brings the Hendrix spirit to the stage. And that is no small task. They have my full endorsement.” \nKatie Daryl\, Host and producer of AXS-TV show The World’s Greatest Tribute Bands: “Kiss The Sky is spectacular! So often with tribute bands people say close your eyes\, they sound just like them\, but with Kiss The Sky you MUST keep your eyes open because the guitar playing\, vintage gear\, costumes and stage presence of the band is so very precise and out of this world your jaw will drop!” \nOPENING BAND HEAVY CREAM \nHEAVY CREAM is quickly becoming the definitive tribute to CREAM\, rock music’s original SUPER GROUP! \nFor the first time\, with stunning historical accuracy in both look and sound\, a tribute to Cream has been assembled…HEAVY CREAM out of PHILADELPHIA starring teenage guitar phenom Billy “The Kid” Thoden in the part of Eric Clapton. Billy was named “The Kid” by ZZ Top’ Billy Gibbons. He was discovered by Jimi Hendrix bassist Billy Cox\, has opened for Pat Travers and Robert Randolph and performed alongside Eric Gales and Dickey Betts. \nHeavy Cream features replicated gear including the famous ‘Fool’ artwork guitars of Clapton and Bruce and Ginger Baker’s legendary double Ludwig drum kit\, as well as Cream’s signature stack of British Marshall Amps\, plus authentic wardrobe that Cream actually used at their most memorable 60’s shows\, this band’s three world class musicians recreate Cream’s classic concerts for today’s audiences.

SUMMARY:Catapult
DESCRIPTION:Catapult is\, technically\, a shadow dance company.  What it really is:  a theatrical art form that is an amazingly imaginative combination of dance\, story-telling\, and sculpture.   Founded in 2009\, by Adam Battlestein (choreographer\, Creative Director and Master Teaching Artist for Pilobolus Dance Theatre for 19 years)\, Catapult catapulted to fame on Season 8 of America’s Got Talent\, earning their way to the finals of the NBC-TV hit show. \nCatapult is all about the human body and its ability to transform.  The talented Catapult dancers work behind a screen to create seemingly impossible dancing shadow silhouettes of shapes from the world around us. You won’t believe your eyes as you watch these incredible dancers become a mountain\, a full size elephant\, a helicopter\, a house with a window and people inside the window.  You will never figure out how they do it\, and you won’t know what they will make next – you will be surprised and delighted again and again. Audiences of all ages love what appear to be effortless transformations and applaud over and over as more and more unbelievable images appear. \nCatapult’s “Magic Shadows” show is packed with hundreds of shape transformations\, and it is full of humor\, emotion\, and engaging stories.  There are 8 fully realized stories told through music and shadows and 6 short shadow dance videos which play between the live dances – brief moments of poetry or humor which perfectly cleanse the palate and prepare the audience for their next shadow journey.  Audiences leave this show dazed and happy\, and they will never look at their own shadow the same way again! \n

DESCRIPTION:Based on the acclaimed novel by Mark Haddon\, adapted by Simon Stephens \n‘A phenomenal combination of storytelling and spectacle’ (The Times) \n‘Dazzlingly inventive’ (Evening Standard) \nThe Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time returns to selected international cinemas in 2018. \nCaptured live from the National Theatre in London\, this critically acclaimed production directed by Marianne Elliot (Angels in America\, War Horse) has astonished audiences around the world and has received seven Olivier and five Tony Awards®. Christopher\, fifteen years old\, stands beside Mrs Shears’ dead dog. It has been speared with a garden fork\, it is seven minutes after midnight and Christopher is under suspicion. He records each fact in the book he is writing to solve the mystery of who murdered Wellington. He has an extraordinary brain\, exceptional at math while ill-equipped to interpret everyday life. He has never ventured alone beyond the end of his road\, he detests being touched and he distrusts strangers. But his detective work\, forbidden by his father\, takes him on a frightening journey that upturns his world. \nProduction photography by Manuel Harlan

SUMMARY:LAUGHING WITH ME! Improv workshop with Michael O’Keeffe (Ages 13-17)
DESCRIPTION:Laughing With Me! is a program designed specifically for those with Autism Spectrum Disorder 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. \nThey 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. \nDelve 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. Your child is set for laughter and learning! \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 MA 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. \nRecently\, 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. \nThis workshop is specifically designed for Ages 13-17.
