    Carmen en Flamenco

    Flamenco Dance Illustrates the story of “CARMEN”
    No Soprano. No Tenor. Just Dance and Orchestra.
    This is Not Your Grandma’s Opera!

    Like you’ve never seen before, sensational Flamenco dancer Liliana Ruiz, with Maestro Daniel Spalding and his 22 piece orchestra, perform a unique interpretation of Bizet’s “Carmen” as arranged by Russian composer Rodin Shchedrin. They bring to Uptown! Knauer Performing Arts Center an exclusive production designed to leave audiences not just entertained, but enthralled.

    Liliana Ruiz specializes in Classical Spanish Dance with castanets, brilliant costumes, Folklore and Flamenco. She has shared the stage with such celebrities as Julio Iglesias at the Premier Club, Peter Nero and the Philly POP’s at the Kimmel Center and in Carmen with Placido Domingo at the Auditorio Nacional in Mexico City. Raised in Mexico City, she has been dancing professionally since the age of thirteen, inspired by her family’s deep-rooted passion for the arts.

    Maestro Spalding is recognized as “one of the most innovative conductors on today’s music scene” (L. Budman, Miami Herald). He and the Philadelphia Virtuosi Chamber Orchestra have dazzled audiences from L.A. to New York’s Lincoln Center and from Rio de Janeiro to Moscow’s iconic Tchaikovsky Hall with unique and powerful performances, re-defining the classical music experience. Their CD recording of “Carmen” was a Grammy finalist, using drums, marimbas and xylophones to bring forth the authentic flavor and syncopated rhythms of the music.

    Better Than Bacon Gives Back

    Better Than Bacon is Suburban Philly’s favorite interactive improvisational comedy show. Voted “Best Comedy Troupe – Critics Choice” by Main Line Today since 2011, Better Than Bacon performs completely unscripted improvisational games, driven by audience suggestions and participation. Every show is a brand new experience!

    Their November 2017 show is a special “Bacon Gives Back” performance benefiting Act in Faith of Greater West Chester, an interfaith organization that provides support for unemployed and under-employed members of our community.

    A majority of the Better Than Bacon performers met at improv comedy classes offered by a local adult night school. After taking the same classes together for over 3 years, it was time to break out and see if they could become a real improv comedy troupe. In June 2010, Dan Stabb came on board as coach, rehearsals began regularly and Better Than Bacon was born. The cast includes comedians Lauren Burawski, Bob Curran, Jack Dibeler, Brett Heller, Lauren Henry, Amy Hitchcock, Gerry Kniezewski, Steve Murphy, Susan Price and Dan Stabb.

    Travel Adventure Series: Ghosts of the Gold Rush with Gray Warriner

    Deadwood. Tombstone. Robbers Roost. Even today, these words speak to us of a wild, somewhat unsavory past. With more than their share of outlaws and ‘lawless’ lawmen, the boom towns and mining camps of the west became famous around the world. Follow the footsteps of Butch Cassidy, The Sundance Kid, and the Wild Bunch throughout the mountain west.

    From the millions mined in Colorado, to California’s historic Highway 49 in the heart of the 49ers ‘motherlode country’, the ghosts of the gold rush are still with us. Pony Express stations, old stage stops and trading posts… to railroads to nowhere, the West reveals its long-hidden past in the deserts of Nevada, Utah, Arizona, and old New Mexico.

    Journey to see the still-visible, rich history of the West that remains… and some of the most spectacular places in North America.

Amy’s vision established Meet me at the Well as a beacon of strength and support for victims of sex trafficking, providing essential services in the various stages of their recovery journey. Meet me at the Well programs include homesteading, mentoring, and educational scholarships for victims, community education programs for prevention and awareness; our priority goal is to open a rescue home.

    The King & I Musical by Rodgers & Hammerstein

    Unionville High School is proud to present Rodgers and Hammerstein’s classic Broadway musical, The King & I, with performances on March 15th, 16th and 17th at 7:00pm. A moving and radiant tale of East meets West, The King & I will be brought to life for the community with an enchanting mixture of irresistible story, unforgettable songs, breathtaking dance numbers, and astonishing stagecraft.

    It is 1862 when newly widowed Anna Leonowens and her son, Louis, sail from their native England for Bangkok, Siam (now Thailand). Anna set her sights on a new adventure and accepted a position as the schoolteacher for the King of Siam’s many children and wives. The King is largely considered to be a barbarian by rulers in the West, so he asks for Anna’s assistance to change his image, if not his ways. Anna and the King struggle to find common ground. While both keep a firm grip on their respective traditions and values, Anna and the King eventually teach each other about understanding, respect, and love that can transcend the greatest of differences.

    Online ticket sales at www.showtix4u.com for $12. Tickets at the door are $14 adults/$12 students and senior citizens.

    Theta Resonance: new works by Kate Stewart

    West Chester University is proud to present Theta Resonance, an exhibition of recent abstract paintings and collages by Kate Stewart. The works on view are a result of Stewart’s sabbatical research which examines aspects of meditation through research of diverse art practices, artists and materials. The title Theta Resonance refers to the theta state of the brain during meditation, REM sleep and hypnosis. Stewart draws parallels between her painting practice and her meditation practice by describing synesthetic responses to thoughts and sounds through paint language, color, light and space.

Commissioned by NBC in 1939, The Old Maid and the Thief has become a comic opera classic. Opera tutti! will be adapting the radio play to Uptown’s Main Stage.

    A mysterious, attractive stranger named Bob appears in a small New England town, taking up residence with a formidable spinster, Miss Todd, and her young maid Laetitia. Their strategies to keep Bob from leaving them become increasingly outrageous, as do suspicions about his reasons for visiting their upright community.

    Cast members are: Emily Bullock as Miss Todd, Catherine Friedman as Laetitia, Heidi Starr as Miss Pinkerton, Matthew Maisano as Bob, Brydon Lidle IV as our Foley artist (sound effects guy). Narrator is TBA! Pianist Tim Crawford will lead our ensemble!

    Fiddler Michael Cleveland’s blistering prowess and technical fluency have since marked him as a sought-after musician, leading to performances with Vince Gill, Marty Stuart, Tim O’Brien and more in recent years. However, it wasn’t until 2006, when Michael formed his own band, Michael Cleveland & Flamekeeper, that he found the right vehicle for his musical vision, and he hasn’t rested since, constantly looking for new ways to push himself and his music forward.

    “He plays fearless and it’s intoxicating to play with him because he makes you play fearless,” says Country Music Hall of Famer Vince Gill. “He takes no prisoners but he plays with a restraint and a soul. He plays without abandon.” He is IBMA’s most awarded Fiddle Player of the Year with 11 wins among his many awards. Together with Flamekeeper, Cleveland makes his way around the country performing festivals, clubs, and performing arts centers, delighting audiences, leaving them with jaws dropped in complete amazement.“It’s wicked to see how much music he pulls out of a bow,” continues Vince. “He’s untouchable.”

    Michael Cleveland & Flamekeeper
    with Colebroke Road opening
    Friday, August 23, 2019 8:00pm

    Fiddler Michael Cleveland’s blistering prowess and technical fluency have since marked him as a sought-after musician, leading to performances with Vince Gill, Marty Stuart, Tim O’Brien and more in recent years. However, it wasn’t until 2006, when Michael formed his own band, Michael Cleveland & Flamekeeper, that he found the right vehicle for his musical vision, and he hasn’t rested since, constantly looking for new ways to push himself and his music forward.

    “He plays fearless and it’s intoxicating to play with him because he makes you play fearless,” says Country Music Hall of Famer Vince Gill. “He takes no prisoners but he plays with a restraint and a soul. He plays without abandon.” He is IBMA’s most awarded Fiddle Player of the Year with 11 wins among his many awards. Together with Flamekeeper, Cleveland makes his way around the country performing festivals, clubs, and performing arts centers, delighting audiences, leaving them with jaws dropped in complete amazement.“It’s wicked to see how much music he pulls out of a bow,” continues Vince. “He’s untouchable.”

    Votes for Women: A Visual History Museum exhibition

    Commemorating the 100th Anniversary of the passage of the Nineteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States, the Brandywine River Museum of Art will present Votes for Women: A Visual History. The long road to women’s suffrage played out very differently from political movements today. In the absence of televised and digital media, the suffragists spread their message through magazines, political cartoons, posters, plays, parades, and even through fashion. This exhibition examines the visual culture of the suffrage movement, revealing how the “look” of women’s rights developed and the important visual strategies that propelled it forward. Presenting an inclusive historical narrative, the exhibition recognizes the efforts of women of color and their community networks, which have been largely overlooked.The visual lessons of the suffrage movement provided a model for later activism, including the civil rights and social justice movements up to the present day, making this not just a centennial celebration, but a window into contemporary visual discourse. Votes for Women: A Visual History is made possible by PECO, The Coby Foundation, Ltd., the Arcadia Foundation, and The Center for American Art at the Philadelphia Museum of Art. Closed Tuesdays
