Driving guitar solos and throbbing rhythms make up the heavy metal produced by Orlando-based metalcore outfit Trivium. Since their start in 2000, the four-member band has sold more than a million albums and toured alongside other big-ticket metal acts like Iron Maiden, As I Lay Dying and GWAR, bringing fans at venues like Fillmore (Detroit), the Buckhead Theatre and Aztec Theatre to capacity.
Their most recent effort, “Vengeance Falls,” surfaced in October 2013 and landed at No. 15 on The Billboard 200, as well as in the Top 10 on Japanese and Australian album charts. Along with a discography of six full-length records and a healthy U.S. tour history, Trivium has also handled concerts throughout Europe, Japan and Australia.
For the 2006 collection “The Crusade,” Trivium frontman Matt Heafy took a slight departure from his metalcore scream to deliver more traditional singing vocals that some compared to Metallica. That album debuted at No. 25 on The Billboard 200, and Heafy went back to his signature scream for the follow-up, 2008’s “Shogun,” and subsequent releases.

Crumbs from the Table of Joy

Crossroads Theatre Company Brings Lynn Nottage’s “Crumbs from the Table of Joy” Back to the Stage in New Brunswick

The celebrated Crossroads Theatre Company in New Brunswick is once again lighting up the stage, this time with a heartfelt revival of Lynn Nottage’s “Crumbs from the Table of Joy.” This deeply moving family drama, penned by one of America’s most acclaimed contemporary playwrights, continues its run through November 23, offering audiences a powerful and poetic exploration of race, identity, loss, and hope in postwar America.

Set in the 1950s, “Crumbs from the Table of Joy” follows the Crump family as they navigate a rapidly changing world following the death of their matriarch. When the family relocates from Florida to Brooklyn, patriarch Godfrey Crump seeks solace and direction through religion — while his teenage daughters, Ernestine and Ermina, struggle to find their place amid the shifting tides of culture and self-discovery. The arrival of their free-spirited Aunt Lily adds both humor and chaos, pushing the family to confront the tension between faith and freedom, tradition and transformation.

Lynn Nottage, a two-time Pulitzer Prize winner, is known for crafting stories that give voice to the overlooked and the resilient. “Crumbs from the Table of Joy” captures her signature blend of emotional depth and lyrical storytelling, weaving together themes of migration, gender, and social awakening through the lens of a family searching for meaning in the midst of turmoil.

Crossroads Theatre Company, based in the heart of New Brunswick’s vibrant arts district, is the perfect stage for this revival. Founded in 1978, Crossroads has built a national reputation for championing African American voices and staging works that challenge, uplift, and inspire. Their production of “Crumbs from the Table of Joy” continues that legacy — blending meticulous direction, standout performances, and immersive staging to bring Nottage’s world to life with authenticity and heart.

Audiences can expect an experience that feels both timeless and urgently relevant. The play’s exploration of belonging, resilience, and the search for joy resonates powerfully today, inviting theatergoers to reflect on how far we’ve come — and how far we still have to go. The production’s design captures the era’s emotional and visual contrasts, from the simplicity of a 1950s Brooklyn apartment to the vivid imaginings that unfold in Ernestine’s mind as she dreams of a better, freer future.

For those looking to experience thought-provoking live theatre this fall, Crossroads’ latest production offers a perfect opportunity. The company’s intimate venue creates a uniquely personal connection between audience and performance, allowing every moment — from whispered conversations to emotional crescendos — to feel immediate and real.

Tickets for “Crumbs from the Table of Joy” are now available, with performances continuing through November 23 at Crossroads Theatre Company in New Brunswick. Whether you’re a longtime theater lover or simply looking for a meaningful evening out, this revival delivers storytelling that is both soul-stirring and beautifully human.

From Ashes to New
2025-11-08 00:00 | Starland Ballroom, 570 Jernee Mill Rd, Sayreville, New Jersey, 08872, United States
In a small town, you either die where you came from or dream your way out. From Ashes To New understand this choice. As such, the Lancaster, PA band—Matt Brandyberry [rap vocals, keys, synths, programming, guitar], Danny Case [clean & unclean vocals], Lance Dowdle [lead guitar], and Mat Madiro [drums]—churn out an anthemic hybrid of hard rock, hip-hop, electronic, and alternative with enough energy to inspire you to get up, move forward, and maybe even, make a change. Since 2013, the group have risen from humble beginnings to the top of the 21st century rock vanguard with hundreds of millions of streams, sold out shows across the country, and acclaim from LoudWire, Alternative Press, and more.
“Growing up in Elizabethtown, PA felt hopeless in a way,” admits Matt. “You go to college and become part of corporate America, or you’re just “trash”. For the longest time, I fell into the latter category according to other people. My mentality was, ‘Who are these people to fucking tell me what I’m going to do with my life?’ They don’t make my decisions; I make decisions for myself. It took a lot of ups and downs, but it’s paying off. I owe it to the small town blue-collar mentality that made me work harder. Danny grew up in Rochester, but his story is the same. We were the loners picked last. Everyone underestimated us. We fought through it for all of our lives, and we’re going to be picked first now.”
“I was always an outcast who nobody gave a shit about,” agrees Danny. “The only thing I ever dreamt of was music. Like the other guys in From Ashes to New, nobody was going to tell me otherwise or stop me.”
During 2021, the musicians holed up in Lancaster with longtime collaborators and producers Grant McFarland and Carson Slovak to create their upcoming album. This time around, the band made a conscious decision to ignore outside influences and focus on what makes them From Ashes To New.
“We weren’t going to let other people tell us what to do,” affirms Danny. “We went back to the guys who produced us for a long time, because they worked cohesively with us.”
“We got back to the days of creating music to simply create,” adds Matt. “We ended up making the most genuine piece of art we could. At the same time, we applied everything we’ve learned as musicians, producers, and writers. We knew we were capable of doing everything bigger and better.”
