SUMMARY:Hadestown
DESCRIPTION:COME SEE HOW THE WORLD COULD BE. Welcome to HADESTOWN\, where a song can change your fate. Winner of eight 2019 Tony Awards® including Best Musical and the 2020 Grammy® Award for Best Musical Theater Album\, this acclaimed new show from celebrated singer-songwriter Anaïs Mitchell and original director Rachel Chavkin (Natasha\, Pierre & The Great Comet of 1812) is a love story for today… and always. HADESTOWN intertwines two mythic tales — that of young dreamers Orpheus and Eurydice\, and that of King Hades and his wife Persephone — as it invites you on a hell-raising journey to the underworld and back. Mitchell’s beguiling melodies and Chavkin’s poetic imagination pit industry against nature\, doubt against faith\, and fear against love. Performed by a vibrant ensemble of actors\, dancers and singers\, HADESTOWN is a haunting and hopeful theatrical experience that grabs you and never lets go.

SUMMARY:Beethoven\, Schumann\, & Brahms
DESCRIPTION:Musical brilliance abounds in this concert featuring works by three prominent composers from the Classical and Romantic eras. Beethoven’s overture to Egmont is part of the incidental music he composed for the play by Goethe. It portrays in a brilliant and powerful way the ideas of oppression\, struggle\, and freedom. Schumann’s music captures the imagination with its romantic passion and energy\, while offering an innovative formal design where all the movements of the Symphony are linked together.
