For a breathtaking hour, she embodies the "spirit" of Harriet Tubman from her early childhood to her elder years. Audiences share standing ovations, cheers and tears at this performance. Referred to as "Brilliant", Inspirational", Deeply Touching and "Beautiful to Watch" There are many plays about Harriet Tubman, but none share her entire life story like a visit with The Spirit of Harriet Tubman. Leslie McCurdy invokes the 'spirit' of Harriet Tubman as she portrays the life of the famous Underground Railroad conductor, recreating stories familiar and some rarely told, using words said to have been Harriet TubmanÂ¹s own. Through it all we learn of the faith and conviction that drove Harriet Tubman to follow her dreams; the spirit of the past connecting with the present, inspiring her charges to have the courage to do the same in envisioning their future.

SOUL OF LANGSTON - 1-Man Performance by Daron Porter Stewart as Langston Hughes. What would be of Hip-Hop if Langston Hughes never took to poetry, or of Civil Rights if the Harlem Renaissance never flourished? Soul of Langston reveals the bitter-sweet wit and wisdom of Langston's poetry; the tragedies and triumphs that constructed his life; and the worldwide impact of his literary accomplishments - going from busboy and poet to becoming "Harlem's Wonder" helping establish the Civil Rights movement through the Harlem Renaissance. The production explores Langston's poetic statement: "I too sing America...I too am America" and also poses the question to all, "What happens to a dream deferred? from Langston's famous poem. ARTS-IN-EDUCATION: Drama and Theatre can enhance learning by conveying information in a Lasting, Memorable Way! Students who are challenged with written demonstrations of content acquisition, sometimes find more success through artistic expressions of learning. Inspired by Hughes' influence on the Civil Rights Movement and modern Hip-Hop culture, Soul of Langston was developed to bridge a cultural pathway from the Harlem Renaissance to modern artistic expressions of activism and public discourse, targeting state, national and Common Core Learning Standards across several subject areas. Education: We offer a three and five-day, synchronous arts integration residency

The Mountain State has its Stage and the Prairie Home its Companion. Long Alaska nights gather folks at Parlor In The Round, a songwriter showcase with an improv twist! Three songwriters â€“ a national act, a â€œringerâ€ and a local â€“ are guided by host Kevin Worrell through rounds of songs, stories, and improv games for a night of leaned-in listening and laughing out loud. The show opens with the rules of play and artist introductions (and some light roasting) by our Oprah-meets-Bob-Barker host. Songwriting homework follows, making each show a debut of new works. After the intermission, tradition is cast aside as the musicians dive into collaborations, jocular inventions and premeditated musings all based on written submissions from the audience. In 2013 Anchorage-based songwriter Kevin Worrell was seeking a space for songwriters to be inspired, for the audience to be engaged and the venue to be supported. After 7 seasons (sold out since season 4) he found that Parlor In The Round creates a space that knits community closer through the novel experience of creating together. Parlor has featured Joan Osborne, Dan Bern, Steve Poltz, John Craigie, Peter Mulvey, Quinn Christopherson, Eric Howk (Portugal. The Man) and more.

Duende Libre is an award-winning jazz quintet whose original music draws upon the ancestral musical traditions from Cuba, Brazil, and West Africa. Each having apprenticed with direct descendants and master musicians of these traditions, they consider themselves disciples of their teachers. The result: A euphoric 21st-century jazz that honors its historical roots, pushing open the boundaries of genre to invoke a powerful sonic freedom. “Each member’s experiences are vital as they filter West African traditional rhythms through their own hands, voices, minds, bodies, each song as much choreography as a composition,” PopMatters wrote. “Hopeful in sound as well as in ideological foundation [the band creates music] full of heart and historical multitudes.”

“PONTE EL RIMTO” Be part of a hands-on, call-and-response rhythm and song workshop highlighting instruments from Cuba and Brazil. Clap and dance along with the beat. Presented in Spanish, Portuguese, and English. All ages & abilities welcome. “PA’ GOZAR! INTRO TO CLAVE & AFRO-LATIN RHYTHM” Explore the rich and varied rhythmic legacy from Brazil and the Caribbean through hands-on participation, call & response, and collective jamming. We look at clave and how it informs the interlocking parts which give this music its powerful groove. Participants will leave with a deeper appreciation and understanding of what clave is and how they can utilize it in their own music.

We would prefer 2 monitor mixes (one SR and one SL). 2. Using our sound system w/ output to house system: We bring our sound system and mixer and give the house an XLR out to supplement the sound. 3. Using our sound system: with this option, we are 100% self sufficient and only need access to 1 grounded power outlet.

Tomáseen Foley's A Celtic Christmas is an Irish music, song and dance show based around a beautiful Christmas story set in 1940s Ireland. At its center is Limerick native, Tomáseen Foley, who recreates the joy and innocence of a night before Christmas in a remote farmhouse in his native parish of Teampall an Ghleanntáin, when the neighboring families would gather around the fire to grace the wintry night with traditional Irish Christmas carols and raise the rafters with the joy of their music and knock sparks off the flagstone floor with traditional dances. Joining Tomáseen on stage are some of the finest exponents of Celtic music and dance from both sides of the Atlantic. Next year will mark the show's 28th year of touring. “Tom has the distinction of being the only artist the Craterian has presented for over 20 consecutive years...It took a global pandemic to interrupt the tradition. The program offers poetry, prose, song and dance. “It will certainly make you smile, and likely bring a tear to your eye,” Stephen McCandless, Executive Director of the Craterian Theater, Medford, OR.
