SUMMARY:Teatro La Plaza's Hamlet
DESCRIPTION:“★★★★★ Brilliant …This infectiously exuberant production serves as a reminder that Shakespeare is accessible to all\, and Hamlet is for everyone” The Telegraph \n“A performance like none I’ve ever witnessed during my 30-plus years of writing about entertainment and arts and culture … the complete definition of theatre for the mind\, spirit\, soul and imagination … The troupe delivers an all-encompassing crossover narrative that penetrates the heart.” The Chicago Tribune \n“★★★★★ “The ferocious\, left‑field freshness of its approach… shaken up\, translated\, fragmented\, relived and reconstructed in spectacular style … offering a non‑stop feast of new insights … the show still ends with an exhilarated audience leaping up to dance onstage with the company; thrilled by the joy\, the irreverence\, the profound insight\, and the deep sense of human solidarity”  The Scotsman \nIn this brilliant\, funny\, and moving adaptation\, Peruvian director Chela De Ferrari intertwines the text of Shakespeare’s Hamlet with the lived experiences of a young ensemble of eight actors with Down syndrome. With wry humor\, playful energy\, pop music\, and pointed critique\, the performers confront the play’s timeless themes—grief\, revenge\, and existence—with striking honesty and insight. Drawing resonant parallels between Shakespeare’s Denmark and our contemporary world\, they offer a vision of a more just and joyful imagined future.

SUMMARY:"How Black Music Took Over the World" with Melvin Gibbs and Stephon Alexander
DESCRIPTION:Join FourOneOne and Sound+Science in celebration of producer\, bassist\, and author Melvin Gibbs’ new book How Black Music Took Over The World\, which will be published by Basic Books on April 14th. Gibbs will be in conversation with Stephon Alexander\, theoretical cosmologist\, jazz musician\, and author of The Jazz of Physics and Fear of a Black Universe. This event kicks off FourOneOne’s multipart residency with Gibbs\, which explores the themes of the book through a series of conversations and live performances. \nIn How Black Music Took Over the World\, Gibbs discusses the musical inheritance of Africa. Beginning with two rhythmic building blocks he calls the cell and the frame\, Gibbs shows how those tools can transport listeners to “a realm where sounds become vehicles for human movement.” Reforged in the African diaspora in the Americas\, they are played today on church organs\, electric guitars\, computers\, telephones\, or a simple gourd. Kool & the Gang called Black musicians the “scientists of sound”—and Gibbs shows how they discovered the world’s music.

SUMMARY:CBH Talk | The Alchemy of Movement Building
DESCRIPTION:Join a panel of writers\, organizers\, and elected leaders for a powerful and urgent conversation about how movements are built quietly\, locally\, and out of public view\, before erupting into collective action. Moderated by Saul Austerlitz\, author of How to Assemble an Activist\, this program explores the sparks that turn private alarm into public action. Drawing on his own journey from political observer to engaged organizer\, Austerlitz offers a compelling case study of how ordinary people step forward\, find one another\, and begin the long work of change. \nAusterlitz will be joined by Council Member Alexa Avilés\, graphic artist and political zine-maker Megan Piontkowski\, and senior national political manager at Indivisible and co-founder of Hands Off NYC Molly Sandley\, whose voices are grounded in the day-to-day realities of grassroots work. Together\, they will pull back the curtain on what happens beneath the headlines: the patient community-building\, the creative interventions\, and the sustained collaboration that allow movements not just to ignite\, but to endure.

SUMMARY:The International Library Presents Olga Ravn on 'The Wax Child' with Audrey Wollen
DESCRIPTION:Join The Center for Fiction for an evening with Olga Ravn\, the acclaimed author of Booker Prize finalist The Employees and My Work\, as she introduces her haunting new novel\, The Wax Child\, translated by Martin Aitken. \nSet amid the witchcraft trials of seventeenth-century Denmark\, The Wax Child follows Christenze Kruckow\, an unmarried noblewoman accused of sorcery\, and the women who share her fate. Their alleged crimes—stealing happiness\, consorting with a headless Devil\, and wielding un-Christian powers—place them in peril of the stake. Narrated by a wax doll crafted by Christenze herself\, The Wax Child is a chilling meditation on fear\, power\, and the brutal mechanisms that govern communities. \nDrawing from court records\, spells\, letters\, and Scandinavian grimoires\, Ravn blends meticulous research with genre-bending experimentation\, building a collage-like narrative that is as unsettling as it is mesmerizing. She will be joined in conversation by artist and essayist ​​Audrey Wollen for a conversation about The Wax Child\, its source material\, and the enduring allure of stories that illuminate the darkest corners of our past and present.

SUMMARY:Lukas Ligeti’s Notebook: CD Release Concert
DESCRIPTION:This concert celebrates the release of Notebook (New World Records)\, the new CD by Lukas Ligeti’s eponymous NYC-based ensemble. The group to explores combinations of composition and improvisation that are too detail-oriented for a conventional band\, yet too abstractly framed and rehearsal-intensive for classical ensembles. \nNotebook employs unusual approaches to interplay — inhabiting a space between new composed music\, free improvisation\, and indie rock to create a vivid and distinctive expressive language. \nIn some pieces\, an improvising soloist is “shadowed” by another player who provides a “background solo\,” imitating and simultaneously challenging the principal voice. A polymetric drumming technique Ligeti developed—conceptually inspired by the music of the Baganda of Uganda—is used to conduct the ensemble\, with each musician referencing a different component of the drum set as their downbeat. An analog synth arpeggiator functions as both melodic and rhythmic foundation\, while West African-influenced melodies and white noise act as equal partners in melody and harmony.
