SUMMARY:Man of La Mancha
DESCRIPTION:Dream the Impossible Dream with “Man of La Mancha” at Music Mountain Theatre! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPrepare to be transported to a world of idealism\, courage\, and timeless melodies as Music Mountain Theatre proudly presents “Man of La Mancha\,” one of the most beloved and enduring musicals in theatrical history. This powerful production\, inspired by Miguel de Cervantes’ epic 17th-century masterpiece Don Quixote\, invites audiences to witness a profound story of conviction set against the dramatic backdrop of the Spanish Inquisition. \n\n\n\n“Man of La Mancha” masterfully weaves a play-within-a-play\, as Cervantes finds himself imprisoned and facing trial. To defend himself and his fellow inmates\, he enacts the extraordinary tale of Alonso Quijana\, an elderly gentleman who\, in his “madness\,” renames himself the chivalrous knight “Don Quixote” and sets forth on a noble quest to right the world’s wrongs. This celebrated musical\, which garnered five Tony Awards including Best Musical in its original 1965 Broadway run\, speaks to the power of imagination and the human spirit’s indomitable will to find beauty and purpose\, even in the bleakest of circumstances. \n\n\n\nAudiences will be swept away by the rousing\, Spanish-inflected score\, which features iconic and unforgettable numbers such as “The Impossible Dream\,” “I\, Don Quixote\,” “Dulcinea\,” “I Really Like Him\,” and “Little Bird.” These songs have resonated with millions\, becoming anthems for those who dare to reach for a world that “should be” rather than merely accepting the world “as it is.” \n\n\n\nImportant Information for Our Guests: \n\n\n\n\nContent Warning: Please be advised that “Man of La Mancha” contains theatrical haze/fog\, explores mature themes\, includes references to bodily harm\, and features scenes of both emotional and physical intensity.\n\n\n\nRecommended Age: This production is recommended for ages 13 and up\, ensuring an appropriate experience for all attendees.\n\n\n\n\nPerformance Schedule: \n\n\n\n\nDates: August 8th – August 24th\n\n\n\nEvening Performances: Fridays & Saturdays at 8:00 PM\n\n\n\nMatinee Performances: Saturdays & Sundays at 3:00 PM\n\n\n\n\nGroup Savings Available! Planning a visit with friends\, family\, or a club? Groups of 15 or more can enjoy significant savings with Music Mountain Theatre’s special group pricing. It’s the perfect opportunity to share this inspiring theatrical experience together. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDon’t miss this chance to witness the enduring power of idealism and the unforgettable music of “Man of La Mancha” at Lambertville’s cherished Music Mountain Theatre.

SUMMARY:Phillip-Michael Scales
DESCRIPTION:Phillip-Michael Scales\nFifteen seconds into his latest album Good to Be Here\, Phillip-Michael Scales sings\, “Toes pointed toward the road / Hard times picking at my bones\,” before launching into the anthemic chorus: “I couldn’t walk away if I tried / I’m gonna light up the sky.” The song sets a determined tone for the album\, reflecting Scales’ journey as an artist.\nIn Chicago\, Scales honed his craft\, playing 308 gigs in 2018 and crediting the city with teaching him how to hustle. This drive carried him to Nashville\, where he gained traction on the radio station; Lightning 100\, released his debut album Sinner-Songwriter\, toured Europe\, appeared on The Ellen DeGeneres Show\, and opened national tours for Keb’ Mo’ and Caravan Palace. Grammy-nominated producer Dan Knobler (Lake Street Dive\, Allison Russell\, and Bahamas) later joined forces with Scales to produce Good to Be Here.\nWithout a label or viral hit\, Scales has built his career through relentless effort—long drives behind tour busses\, self-management\, and learning the business firsthand. His music channels the grit of Stax-era soul\, cataloging the journey of building a dream brick by brick. Make no mistake there is an undercurrent of fun throughout whether he’s finding love in “Can’t Get Enough” or getting his swagger back in “Be My Own Man.” As Scales puts it: “I wouldn’t say that I’ve ‘arrived\,’ but… it’s good to be here.”

SUMMARY:Adam Ezra Group
DESCRIPTION:He takes a month out of each year to visit the living rooms of his fans around the country…His band and nonprofit organization RallySound host a free festival every summer that raised $151\,000 for homeless veterans in 2024…He live-streamed for 500 nights in a row during the pandemic…They co-produced an album with 163 fans…\nIf you haven’t connected with Adam Ezra Group yet\, these are just a few examples to help you understand how this underground\, Americana songwriter and his bandmates seem to have popped out of nowhere\, establishing a connection with their fans unlike any other\, and are suddenly selling out theaters throughout the Northeast.\nAdam Ezra will joke with you that while the “nowhere” part might be accurate\, nothing has ever just “popped” for this folk musician\, activist. Without resources\, connections\, or any kind of clue how the music world works\, Ezra began playing shows over 20 years ago. When music venues wouldn’t hire him\, he played bars\, bookstores\, fields\, and parking lots\, often raising money for causes he cared about; a practice that grew into his nonprofit organization RallySound.\n“We’d play 5 hours a night\,” Adam reminisces\, “more often than not\, in danger of outnumbering the audiences we were playing for…”\nSo how did this band operating so far outside the traditional music world come to win New England Music Award’s “Americana Act of the Year” in 2023? What could have happened to inspire John Oates to call Adam and invite him to begin a songwriting friendship that would lead to John producing their latest release and co-write\, “Hold Each Other Now”? What happened to catch the attention of The Wallflowers\, who recently invited AEG to join them on their spring tour\, or SPIN Magazine who recently proclaimed\, “This Independent Underground Folk Band Is Blowing Up Without Selling Out”?\nIf you ask Adam\, he’ll tell you:\n“One person at a time\, over many years and thousands of shows\, decided to turn their heads to listen. One person at a time decided to share our music with folks they care about. That’s always been our story. It’s no fairytale\, but it sure makes me proud and humbled when I look out from the stage to watch theaters full of people singing along to our music.”\nThese days you’ll find Adam and his bandmates\, Corinna Smith (Fiddle)\, Poche Ponce (Bass)\, and Alex Martin (Percussion)\, constantly out on the road. If you look at their tour schedule now\, you can buy tickets to see them at festivals\, rock venues\, and theaters around the country\, but you will also see their tour continuously peppered with activism and grassroots events; a testament to an artist who will never forget where he came from\, and whose mission is about much more than music.
