SUMMARY:Compagnie Hervé KOUBI
DESCRIPTION:“They Fly. They Spin. They Change How You See the Amazing.”\n—The New York Times\nAbsolutely unique and utterly original\, this fearless\, powerful company reigns from France\, Algeria\, and beyond. Combining contemporary and urban dance movements\, capoeira\, and martial arts with powerful imagery and inspired choreography\, the dancers defy gravity. Inspired by Algerian author Yasmina Khadra’s novel\, What The Day Owes To The Night traces Koubi’s own personal lineage as a French-Algerian choreographer. After learning about his family’s Algerian roots\, Koubi returned to the country of his ancestors to collaborate with streetdance performers from across the Mediterranean basin. What emerged is “a creation of poetic beauty” (The New York Times)\, a meditative yet strikingly athletic work about the ties that bind us.\nNamed after the “invincible sun” deity\, the work Sol Invictus upholds love as the guarantor of peace\, that despite fracture\, communion emerges as humanity’s saving grace. The music score includes a composition by Swedish composer Mikael Karlsson\, with excerpts by Steve Reich and digital composer Maxime Bodson. “I want to talk about light\, solidarity\, and those bonds that unite us\,” says Koubi. “Here\, the sun and the dance will emerge victorious.”

SUMMARY:Blues Traveler
DESCRIPTION:Blues Traveler was formed in 1987 by singer/harmonica player John Popper\, guitarist Chan Kinchla\, bassist Bobby Sheehan\, and drummer Brendan Hill; the band was part of a revival of the extended jamming style of ’60s and ’70s groups like the Grateful Dead and Led Zeppelin. Blues Traveler were on the vanguard of the jam band scene of the 1990s\, the first of their generation to sign to a major label\, and one of a handful to experience genuine commercial success when the naggingly catchy “Run-Around” went into the Billboard Top Ten in 1995. By that point\, Blues Traveler had already carved themselves a place within the firmament of modern rock\, earning a loyal audience through their sweaty improvs of blues-based rock and coalescing their peers by launching the H.O.R.D.E. Festival in 1992. One of several Lollapalooza-inspired touring fests\, H.O.R.D.E. illustrated the large audience for jam bands and helped push Blues Traveler toward the top of the charts with their 1994 album Four going platinum six times. They didn’t stay in the upper reaches of Billboard for long\, but they never faded away. They worked steadily throughout the 2000s and beyond\, sometimes experimenting — 2015’s Blow Up the Moon was littered with unexpected cameos — but always returning to the blues as their foundation\, a debt underscored by the 2021 blues covers album Traveler’s Blues.

SUMMARY:Hamlet
DESCRIPTION:Hamlet – Art House Productions | October 9–26\, 2025 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nExperience a bold and inventive take on Shakespeare’s timeless classic with Art House Productions’ staging of Hamlet\, running from October 9 through 26\, 2025. Under the direction of C. Rashee Stevenson\, this production transforms the iconic revenge tragedy into a cosmic crime thriller\, blending existential themes with intense psychological drama. \n\n\n\nIn this reimagined version\, Hamlet’s world unravels as he grapples with the ghost of his father and the harrowing task of avenging a brutal murder. The play explores the thin line between reality and hallucination\, pushing the boundaries of perception\, morality\, and human consciousness. The production incorporates additional text from Jean Genet’s Les Nègres and Les Paravents as well as the works of F. Garcia Lorca\, adding layers of depth\, modern resonance\, and cultural texture to Shakespeare’s original masterpiece. \n\n\n\nThis immersive performance promises a gripping theatrical experience\, examining themes of madness\, morality\, and metaphysics while keeping audiences on the edge of their seats. The runtime is approximately 2 hours and 30 minutes\, including an intermission\, allowing viewers to fully engage with this thought-provoking reinterpretation. \n\n\n\nFor theatergoers seeking a challenging\, contemporary twist on a classic tale\, Art House Productions’ Hamlet offers an unforgettable journey into intrigue\, revenge\, and the human psyche.

SUMMARY:Real Estate
DESCRIPTION:Atlas was a pretty big record for us\, and chances are if you’re reading this\, it’s a pretty big record for you too. Nobody ever said\, “I love Real Estate\, but I hate their third LP\, Atlas.” And if they did say that\, they never said it anywhere around us – and we read everything you guys write on the internet; some of it can get pretty weird. And so\, on this momentous occasion\, we will be bringing A CELEBRATION OF ATLAS to a city near you\, to honor its 11 year and 7 month anniversary. We’ll be playing almost the entire album in its entirety (basically) and other lesser known tunes from the Atlas era. We’ll also be playing a selection of our greatest hits\, because we know you love those too. Please come and celebrate with us – we can’t wait to see you.
