SUMMARY:Titanic: The Musical
DESCRIPTION:In the final hours of April 14\, 1912\, the RMS Titanic\, on her maiden voyage from Southampton to New York\, collided with an iceberg and ‘the unsinkable ship’ slowly sank.  It was one of the most tragic disasters of the 20th Century.  Fifteen hundred seventeen men\, women\, and children lost their lives. \nBased on real people aboard the most legendary ship in the world\, Titanic: The Musical is ‘breathtaking’ (the Guardian) and ‘magnificent’ (the Telegraph)\, a stunning and stirring production focusing on the hopes\, dreams\, and aspirations of her passengers who each boarded with stories and personal ambitions of their own.  All innocently unaware of the fate awaiting them\, the Third-Class immigrants dream of a better life in America\, the Second Class imagine they too can join the lifestyles of the rich and famous\, whilst the millionaire Barons of the First Class anticipate legacies lasting forever. \n \nWith music and lyrics by Maury Yeston and a book by Peter Stone — the pair have collectively won an Academy Award\, an Emmy Award\, an Olivier Award and three Tony Awards.  The original Broadway production of Titanic: The Musical won five Tony Awards\, including Best Musical\, Best Score and Best Book.  This stunning production\, captured live on stage for cinema screenings\, celebrates the 10th anniversary of its London premiere\, where it won sweeping critical acclaim. \nRuntime: 145 minutes including one 10-minute intermission\nRating: Not rated\, Treat as PG

SUMMARY:BORROMINI AND BERNINI: THE CHALLENGE FOR PERFECTION
DESCRIPTION:A journey into the great beauty of Baroque Rome\, when the city was the centre of western art and where every ambitious painter\, sculptor and architect had to be. \nThis is the story of the most famous artistic rivalry of all time\, the one between Borromini and Bernini\, but also the story of Borromini’s rivalry with himself: a genius so absorbed by his art that he turns it into a demon that devours him from the inside forcing him to choose death to reach eternity. \nBorromini deprived himself of everything to pursue a dream: to conquer Rome. It is the story of the architectural revolution of a solitary maestro who changed the appearance of Rome forever\, by pushing himself to his limit\, but also by battling conventions and prejudices\, with the humility to learn from the past to invent the future\, with the courage to pursue an idea despite knowing he would pay the price in the end. \nEstimated runtime: 102 minutes

SUMMARY:Anthony Davis’s X: The Life and Times of Malcolm X
DESCRIPTION:Anthony Davis’s groundbreaking opera\, which premiered in 1986\, arrives at the Met at long last. Robert O’Hara\, who was nominated for a Tony Award in 2020 for his direction of Slave Play\, oversees a new staging that imagines Malcolm as an everyman whose story transcends time and space. A cast of breakout artists take part in the operatic retelling of Malcom X’s life. Baritone Will Liverman\, who triumphed in the Met premiere of Terence Blanchard’s Fire Shut Up in My Bones\, sings Malcolm. Soprano Leah Hawkins plays his mother\, Louise; mezzo-soprano Raehann Bryce-Davis is his sister Ella; bass-baritone Michael Sumuel is his brother Reginald; and tenor Victor Ryan Robertson is the Nation of Islam leader Elijah Muhammad. Kazem Abdullah conducts the newly revised score\, which provides a layered\, jazz-inflected setting for the esteemed writer Thulani Davis’s libretto. \nContent Advisory: X: The Life and Times of Malcolm X contains strong language.

SUMMARY:British Invasion Part 2: First Wave\, 1963-1967
DESCRIPTION:Class Schedule: Thursdays – December 7 & 14 | 7:30 – 9:00 PM \nAs the Beatles reached their first UK #1 hit with “Please Please Me\,” the new music revolution had officially begun. Thus a new generation of artists such as Gerry and the Pacemakers\, Hermans Hermits\, Petula Clark\, and the Rolling Stones joined the Fab Four in changing the charts. By 1964\, the British Invasion had reached—and ultimately conquered—the United States. \nThis two-session virtual course taught by Kit O’Toole will survey some of the major artists of the First Wave period\, from 1963-1967. It will cover genres from pop to the beginnings of psychedelia\, and will examine other acts such as the Who\, Dusty Springfield\, the Animals\, the Hollies\, and many more. In addition\, the class will study the impact of the First Wave on the charts and on American pop and rock music. Finally\, how did the First Wave set the stage for the psychedelic and hard rock sound of the Second Wave? \nZoom Link will be provided upon registration.

SUMMARY:Daniel Catán’s Florencia en el Amazonas
DESCRIPTION:Sung in Spanish and inspired by the magical realism of Gabriel García Márquez\, Mexican composer Daniel Catán’s 1996 opera focuses on an opera diva\, Florencia Grimaldi\, who returns to her native Brazil to perform and to search for her lost lover\, who has vanished into the jungle. The Met premiere stars soprano Ailyn Pérez as Florencia in a new production by Mary Zimmerman that brings the mystical realm of the Amazon to the Met stage.

SUMMARY:The Third Annual Julian Abele “Out of the Shadows” Public History Symposium (Virtual)
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by the Public History Minor at Monmouth University \nThe Public History Minor at Monmouth University hosted the first annual Julian Francis Abele “Out of the Shadows” Virtual Public History Symposium via Zoom in 2021. Free for presenters and attendees alike\, the Symposium is intended as a welcoming place for public history practitioners at all levels\, established and emerging scholars\, and graduate and undergraduate students to share their public history work on individuals or groups in history whose legacies have been purposefully or inadvertently suppressed\, overshadowed\, or underappreciated. We hope to bring these parties out of the shadows and into the fuller appreciation that they so richly deserve. \nThe Symposium is named in honor of pioneering African American architect Julian Francis Abele\, who contributed greatly to the design of Monmouth University’s Great Hall (previously known as both Shadow Lawn and Wilson Hall). Everyone who has attended Monmouth University has personal memories of the building\, a National Historic Landmark. But if you ask them about it\, they are probably more likely to mention Woodrow Wilson’s brief time at the original Shadow Lawn (not “ours”)\, or the current mansion’s starring role as Daddy Warbucks’s home in the movie Annie than they are the fact that it was designed in large part by perhaps “the greatest American born Beaux-Arts architect\,” Julian Francis Abele. Monmouth University’s Fall 2020 Museums and Archives Management Basics class sought to increase awareness about Abele’s role in the creation of what is perhaps our University’s most beloved landmark by creating “The Julian Abele Project.” Now\, we hope to honor Abele’s name with this annual virtual public history symposium\, designed to bring regular attention to Abele’s story and to highlight work focused on other figures underrepresented in the historical record.

SUMMARY:Alexander Pushkin’s Eugene Onegin
DESCRIPTION:Join us for Tuesday Night Book Club! Hosted by Monmouth University’s Ken Womack. This month’s novel is Alexander Pushkin’s Eugene Onegin.

SUMMARY:Journeys of Interdependence: Portraits of First-Generation Identity in Higher Education
DESCRIPTION:The lives and experiences of students\, families\, faculty and professional staff who identify as first-generation are the subject of increased attention in higher education across the United States. The success of programs\, initiatives\, and interventions mostly focus on measurable student “outcomes” but may often miss the complicated narratives of aspiration\, sacrifice\, accomplishment and identity work first-generation students\, families\, faculty\, staff and communities navigate.  Portraiture can make visible the triumphs and challenges of being first in the family in higher educational spaces. This juried exhibition features works that highlight the  first-generation college experience through portraiture  made in a variety of media\, including painting\, drawing\, sculpture\, photography\, printmaking and textiles. \nArtist Reception: Rescheduled to Friday\, March 1 from 5-7 pm.
