PERFORMANCE DESCRIPTION
The Cohen Community Series proudly presents George Thorogood & The Destroyers.
On December 1st, 1973, at The University of Delaware’s Lane Hall, George Thorogood & The Destroyers played their first show ever. “We had the place rockin’,” George says with his now-familiar grin. “We thought, ‘maybe we’re onto something.” Five decades, 15 million albums and more than 8,000 performances later, few bands can still rock the house like George Thorogood & Destroyers. And for Thorogood and his long-time band – Jeff Simon on drums, Bill Blough on bass, Jim Suhler on guitar, and Buddy Leach on saxophone – as well as millions of fans across the globe, their Bad All Over The World – 50 Years of Rock Tour will be a celebration like no other.
“Fifty years doesn’t feel like a long time when you love what you do,” George explains, “and our live performance leaves the ultimate impression. That’s why we always strive to be great. Every show we play can still feel like the biggest night of our lives.”
For the performers who’ve been hailed as “the all-American rock & roll party band” (Goldmine Magazine), “as fresh and as exciting as the moment when you first jammed to their songs” (S.L.R. Magazine) and “one of the most iconic bands in rock history” (Rapid City Journal), onstage is where the band has consistently built – and forever owns – their reputation as one of the most reliable/formidable live acts in the world. And with classics like “Get A Haircut”, “I Drink Alone”, “One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer”, “Move It On Over”, “Who Do You Love” and the definitive badass anthem “Bad To The Bone”, Thorogood & The Destroyers continue to deliver a concert experience Rolling Stone calls “hot enough to melt the polar icecaps and flood the world’s major population centers.”
“We’ve never gone out of style,” George says. “Our heart and soul have been in this from day one, and the fans recognize that. That’s why we’re celebrating our first halfcentury by throwing the biggest and baddest rock party ever.”
The Cohen Community Series was inaugurated in 2008 through a gift from Jon Stewart, former vice chairman of the JCCC Board of Trustees, JCCC alumnus and former president of Metcalf Bank. It was established in honor of the late Barton P. Cohen, president of Metcalf Bancshares, vice chairman and general counsel of Metcalf Bank and an attorney with Blackwell Sanders Peper Martin LLP.Previous Cohen Community Series presenters have included Clint Black, Scotty McCreery, Phil Vassar, Josh Turner, Lonestar, Sawyer Brown, Tracy Lawrence, Diamond Rio, George Will, Marcus Buckingham, and Vince Gill.
All proceeds for this event go to JCCC scholarships and educational programs. No discounts apply.

PERFORMANCE DESCRIPTION
Presented as part of the Heartland Chamber Music Festival
For more than 30 years, their diversity in programming, poise in performance, keen sense of ensemble and impeccable musicality has made the Miami String Quartet one of the most sought-after quartets in chamber music today.
Miami String Quartet Members- Benny Kim, violin
- Cathy Meng Robinson, violin
- Scott Lee, viola
- Keith Robinson, cello
Winners of the 2000 Cleveland Quartet Award presented by Chamber Music America, and Chamber Music Society Two ensemble of the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center from 1999-2001, the Miami String Quartet has been in residence at Hugh A. Glauser School of Music at Kent State University since 2004. They were Quartet in Residence at the Hartt School in Hartford from 2003 to 2009. Other previous residencies include Florida International University and the New World School of the Arts in Miami, where the group was founded in 1988.
The Miami String Quartet has appeared extensively throughout the United States and Europe. Highlights of recent seasons include performances in New York at Lincoln Center’s Alice Tully Hall and the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C., as well as engagements in Boston, Indianapolis, Los Angeles, New Orleans, San Francisco, Seattle, St. Paul and its own concert series in Palm Beach, Florida. International highlights include appearances in Bern, Cologne, Amsterdam’s Concertgebouw, Istanbul, Lausanne, Montreal, Rio de Janeiro, Hong Kong, Taipei, and Paris. The Quartet recently toured with the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center and they perform frequently for the Philadelphia Chamber Music Society.
The ensemble’s interest in new music has led to many commissions and premieres. In 2009, the Quartet and the Kalischstein-Laredo-Robinson Trio premiered Ellen Taaffe Zwilich’s “Septet,” a work co-commissioned by a dozen organizations, including the 92nd St. Y, Kennedy Center, Chamber Music Society of Detroit, Kravis Center, Philharmonic Society of Orange County, Friends of Chamber Music (Portland), Chamber Arts Society of Durham and Denver Friends of Chamber Music. In 2008, they and the Imani Winds premiered Roberto Sierra’s Concierto da Camera, commissioned by Chamber Music Northwest, Stanford University, and Santa Fe Chamber Music Festival. Also in 2008, the ensemble performed the premiere of Joan Tower’s Angels (String Quartet No. 4), commissioned by Music from Angel Fire, and premiered Ricky Ian Gordon’s Green Sneakers for baritone and string quartet, commissioned by Bravo! Vail festival in Colorado. Other recent commissions include a new work by composer Annie Gosfield, commissioned by the Santa Fe Chamber Music Festival; a joint commissioning by the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center and the Virginia Arts Festival of a piano quintet by Bruce Adolphe; and a new work by composer Stephen Jaffe commissioned by the Philadelphia Chamber Music Society.
The Miami String Quartet’s first recording, the first two quartets of Alberto Ginastera, was released in 1994. Their second CD, Saint-Saëns Quartets Nos. 1 and 2 and Faure’s String Quartet, was released in the fall of 1997 on BMG Conifer. The 1999 BMG recording of Peteris Vasks’ Quartet Nos. 1, 2 and 3 garnered unqualified praise on both sides of the Atlantic. Azica Records released their recording, with the Kalichstein-Laredo-Robinson Trio, in 2014. Their recording of Joan Tower’s quartets Angels and Incandescent was released in 2016.

Leonardo! A Wonderful Show About a Terrible Monster
Overland Park, KSUnited StatesDoors at 5:30 PM, Show at 6:00 PMMore Information
PERFORMANCE DESCRIPTION
Leonardo is a terrible monster. He tries so hard to be scary, but he just…isn’t. Then Leonardo finds Sam, the most scaredy-cat kid in the world. Will Leonardo finally get to scare the tuna salad out of someone? Or will it be the start of an unlikely friendship? The plot thickens when the pair meets Kerry and Frankenthaler, an even scaredier-cat and her monster friend. Kerry and Sam need to make a big decision: Will they just be scaredy-cats or can they become friends?
“Leonardo! A Wonderful Show About a Terrible Monster” uses hundreds of illustrated paper puppets, book pages, two-dimensional props, furry monster puppets and songs to bring Mo Willems’ books to life. Calling on the playful use of scale, Manual Cinema has recreated the experience of holding one of Mo’s big, bold, colorful books, full of visual rhythm. Like all Manual Cinema productions, you’re invited to watch the big screen like a traditional movie or watch the artists below it as they create the story in real time. (There is no wrong way to watch the show!)
