When radio station WHIZ-NY loses the actors of its highest rated adventure drama, The Mighty Men, to the draft in World War II, a new superhero team is created to take their place:  The Ladies of Liberty.

PERFORMANCE DESCRIPTION

Makaya McCraven is a prolific drummer, composer, and producer who believes that the word “jazz” is “insufficient, at best, to describe the phenomenon we’re dealing with.” The artist, who has been aptly called a “cultural synthesizer,” has a unique gift for collapsing space, destroying borders and blending past, present, and future into poly-textural arrangements of post-genre, jazz-rooted 21st century folk music. Profiled in Vice, Rolling Stone, the Guardian, and NPR, among other publications, he and the music he makes today are at the very vanguard of that phenomenon. According to the New York Times, “McCraven has quietly become one of the best arguments for jazz’s vitality”.

After cutting his teeth in the Western Massachusetts music scene, co-founding a jazz-hip hop band called Cold Duck Complex that ultimately opened for The Pharcyde, Digable Planets, and the Wu-Tang Clan, he and his partner moved to Chicago in 2006. McCraven soon found himself immersed in both the creative and straight-ahead jazz scenes, proving his versatility, and along the way finding a community that mirrored the pulsating scene that birthed him artistically. Within five years’ time, he’d established a name for himself, gigging alongside scene stalwarts like Willie Pickens, Marquis Hill and Jeff Parker.

McCraven’s newest album, 2022’s In These Times, is the triumphant finale of a project 7+ years in the making. It’s a preeminent addition to his already-acclaimed and extensive discography, and it’s the album he’s been trying to make since he started making records.

In These Times, a collection of polytemporal compositions inspired as much by broader cultural struggles as McCraven’s personal experience, is the recording that McCraven has been slowly cooking in the background while his other works were released. In These Times encompasses all he’s lived through, as well as his lineage, while also pushing the music forward. Music critic Passion of the Weiss suggested that “McCraven’s work, both with younger players and the sounds of older recordings, is part of a necessary conversation about the next evolution of the Black improvised music known colloquially as ‘jazz.’ He’s found the threads connecting the past with the present and is either wrapping them with new colors and textures, or he’s plucking them gleefully like the strings of a grand instrument.”

GOOD by C.P. Taylor  November 9 – 11, 2023, Guignol Theatre  Professor Halder, a scholar of German literature, is a good man. People tell him so. Even as they come to him to burn his books. Set in 1930s Germany, GOOD explores the creeping growth of fascism as it trickles poison into the ear and points at the 'others' and tells us 'they are the problem.' The good professor must make some choices to protect his books. To protect his life. GOOD is a fever dream that examines how self-preservation can lead to self-destruction. "If I am not for myself, then who is for me?" says Halder.  Produced by special arrangement with THE DRAMATIC PUBLISHING COMPANY of Woodstock, Illinois

PERFORMANCE DESCRIPTION
Studio Players presents “A Visit from Scarface” by Virginia Cate and Duke Ernbserger. Directed by Timothy Hull.

This performance is at the Carriage House Theatre, 154 W. Bell Court, Lexington.

Comedy / PG

The year is 1930 and Ben Hecht, the famous Hollywood writer, has just finished his screenplay for a movie produced by Howard Hughes called SCARFACE, loosely based on the real-life story of Al Capone. Hecht considers the script to be the best he’s ever written. It all looks like a Hollywood ending…until the script disappears…only to turn up in the hands of two of Capone’s men who have been sent by Al to have a little “talk” with Ben.
