Make Ready Again
Join movement artist Marguerite Hemmings and an array of stellar musicians for Make Ready Again, an evening of dance, storytelling, and music. Plagued by the collective shadow of an unanswered call for reparations and repair for the African Diaspora, Marguerite performs a live process of meeting their own diaspora-shaped shadow, who invites them to unravel, rage, and grieve.
Eight Eight Time
Eight Eight Time unites four fiercely talented composer-pianists—Kendrah Butler-Waters, Sumi Tonooka, Suzzette Ortiz, and Terry Klinefelter—to premiere a unique suite inspired by real-life stories shared by Philadelphians. Written for eight hands on four grand pianos, Eight Eight Time is both intimate and epic, honoring the profound intricacy of life's pivotal moments.
The Table Sessions: Daniel de Jesús
Enter into an immersive evening of sound and taste curated by cellist/vocalist Daniel de Jesús. The profound emotions of Federico García Lorca's Sonetos de Amor Oscuro — poetry chronicling a forbidden queer love amidst the turmoil of the Spanish Civil War — resonate through the strings of a cello trio.
As at all Table Sessions, the art is paired with a delicious meal. With this Session, experience the rich culinary heritage of Granada, Lorca's home, through a curated menu featuring dishes that evoke the flavors of Andalusia.
