SUMMARY:Aquila Theatre’s Much Ado About Nothing
DESCRIPTION:Shakespeare’s great comedy\, Much Ado About Nothing\, highlights Aquila Theatre’s 25th anniversary season. Spying\, subterfuge\, deception\, false identities\, slander\, manipulation and love all take part in this wonderfully entertaining battle of the sexes. Much Ado About Nothing\, thought to have been written in 1598\, belongs to a group of Shakespeare’s more mature romantic comedies. It is an exuberant\, philosophical\, and festive play exceling in combative wit\, melodrama\, and potential tragedy. Much Ado About Nothing is wonderfully intricate\, flush with surprising twists and turns\, and articulated in expert language. Aquila Theatre’s original Much Ado opened in Boston and toured the United States in 2000/2001. It was performed in 60 American cities\, ran for nearly a year including Off Broadway in New York\, was performed at the White House for the President and First Lady\, and was then revived at the La Jolla Playhouse in 2006. The New York Times described the show as “Outstanding . . . almost unbearable fun. . . gleefully engaging . . . and directed with inspiration.” The New Yorker hailed it as “Just plain cool . . . beautifully spoken\, dramatically revealing\, and crystalline in effect.” Aquila’s original Much Ado was a Critic’s Choice for Time Out\, The Village Voice and The New York Times. \nThere will be a preshow talk at 6:00 PM with the cast the day of show.

SUMMARY:Visiting Writers: The Breakbeat Poets
DESCRIPTION:Hip-Hop is the largest youth culture in the history of the planet rock. It has produced generations of artists who have revolutionized their genre(s) by applying the aesthetic innovations of the culture. \nThe BreakBeat Poets features 78 poets\, born somewhere between 1961-1999\, All-City and Coast-to-Coast\, who are creating the next and now movement(s) in American letters. This is the first poetry anthology by and for the Hip-Hop generation. It is for people who love Hip-Hop\, for fans of the culture\, for people who’ve never read a poem\, for people who thought poems were only something done by dead white dudes who got lost in a forest\, and for poetry heads. This anthology is meant to expand the idea of who a poet is and what a poem is for. \nThe BreakBeat Poets are the scribes recording and remixing a fuller spectrum of experience of what it means to be alive in this moment. The BreakBeat Poets are a break with the past and an honoring of the tradition(s)\, an undeniable body expanding the canon for the fresher.

SUMMARY:Andy Statman
DESCRIPTION:Presented by the Jewish Cultural Studies Program at Monmouth University. \nHad there been a planetarium in 19th-century Galicia\, or a kosher deli in Depression-era Kentucky\, Andy Statman’s music might have been playing in the background. Meandering through time\, geography and\nculture in a few passionate\, organic gusts of music\, neither the man nor his inimitable hybrid sound has a very clearly defined “before” or “after.” Statman\, one of his generation’s premier mandolinists and clarinetists\, thinks of his compositions as “a spontaneous\, American-roots form of very personal\, prayerful Hasidic music\, by way of avant-garde jazz.” \nThis modest man takes for granted that a performer might embody several worlds in his art\, and seems not to recognize that his music\, like his story\, is extraordinary. It’s a story Statman rewrites with his trio every time they perform: “We’re creating an experience between the audience and us.” Statman performs his distinctive\, unconstrained meditations on jazz\, klezmer\, bluegrass and the human soul with bassist Jim Whitney and percussionist Larry Eagle. “At a certain point\, we’re just talking\, just having a threeway conversation.” This “conversation” changes each time they have it on stage\, no melody sounding quite the same as it did before\, and none bearing the definitive stamp of the genre that spawned it. A totally unselfconscious performer\, Statman does not mind that many audiences leave slightly befuddled as to what kind\nof music\, exactly\, they have just heard.

SUMMARY:National Theatre Live: Les Liaisons Dangereuses (Broadcast in HD)
DESCRIPTION:Following the hugely successful broadcasts of Coriolanus and King Lear\, National Theatre Live brings the Donmar Warehouse’s highly anticipated new production of Les Liaisons Dangereuses to cinemas – broadcast live from the Donmar’s London home. \nDirected by Josie Rourke (Coriolanus)\, the cast includes Michelle Dockery (Downton Abbey)\, Janet McTeer (The White Queen) and Dominic West (The Wire). \nIn 1782\, Choderlos de Laclos’ novel of sex\, intrigue and betrayal in pre-revolutionary France scandalised the world. Two hundred years later\, Christopher Hampton’s irresistible adaptation swept the board\, winning the Olivier and Evening Standard Awards for Best Play. Josie Rourke’s revival now marks the play’s thirty year anniversary. \nFormer lovers\, the Marquise de Merteuil and Vicomte de Valmont now compete in games of seduction and revenge. Merteuil incites Valmont to corrupt the innocent Cecile de Volanges before her wedding night but Valmont has targeted the peerlessly virtuous and beautiful Madame de Tourvel. While these merciless aristocrats toy with others’ hearts and reputations\, their own may prove more fragile than they supposed.

SUMMARY:Laurence Juber
DESCRIPTION:Fusing folk\, jazz\, pop and classical styles\, Two-time GRAMMY winner Laurence Juber creates a multifaceted performance that belies the use of only one instrument. Lead guitarist for Paul McCartney’s Wings\, Juber is a world-class guitar virtuoso solo artist\, composer and arranger. Laurence Juber has released 18 critically acclaimed solo albums\, including Guitarist and PCH. His solo CD\, Pop Goes Guitar\, includes the arrangement of Stand By Me that was heard nationally in the ‘Diamonds Are Forever’ commercial. His last release\, Wooden Horses\, showcases LJ’s compositions for solo guitar\, and his latest CD is LJ Plays The Beatles Vol.2\, a follow-up to Vol 1 which is one of Acoustic Guitar Magazine’s all-time Top Ten acoustic albums. Juber is featured on the CD Poppin’ Guitars\, a tribute to the music of the Sherman Brothers\, and can be seen in the documentary film\, The Brothers\, about those celebrated Disney composers. \nAs a studio musician\, his playing can be currently heard on ABC Family channel’s hit show “The Secret Life of the American Teenager.” Juber has also co-composed the soundtrack of the upcoming Blizzard Entertainment video game Diablo 3 and crafted the score to the recent NBC Dateline documentary “Children Of The Harvest.” His music is also featured in the Ken Burns documentary “The Tenth Inning.” \n“Juber is a master of acoustic finger style\, but with less of the trick-guitar mishmash that seems obligatory among the high octane pickers. He has a fluid style that shifts gears through simultaneous jazzy chording\, leads\, and bass lines\, while weaving in and out of musical thoughts faster than a Formula One racer.” – San Diego Reader \nThe performance will be followed by Q&A from Monmouth’s Dean of the School of Humanities and Social Sciences\, Dr. Kenneth Womack.\n\nThere will also be a Guitar Workshop with Laurence Juber in Woods Theatre at 2 PM FREE for concert ticketholders and Monmouth University Students.

SUMMARY:Bolshoi Ballet: Spartacus (Broadcast Live in HD)
DESCRIPTION:Music Aram KachaturianChoreography Yuri Grigorovich \n In ancient Rome\, Spartacus\, a Thracian king\, is turned captive by Crassus with his wife Phrygia. Forced to fight as a gladiator and kill one of his friends\, Spartacus plots an unprecedented upheaval. Grigorovich’s Spartacus was created at the Bolshoi in 1968 and has since remained the Russian company’s signature ballet. This most spectacular production is an epic tour de force\, giving full expression to the virility and strength for which the Bolshoi’s male dancers are renowned. Principal dancer Mikhail Lobukhin is stunning in the role of the legendary gladiator\, along with Svetlana Zakharova as Aegina and Vladislav Lantratov as Crassus.
