“If music be the food of love, play on”...


The mythical world of Illyria comes to life in this ballroom, big band version of Shakespeare’s comedy. When everyone seems more in love with the idea of being in love, it takes two twins and some cross-dressing to make people see what is right in front of them. Full of dancing and music, be ready to be swept off your feet!

A One-Man Hip Hop Journey Through Time...
 

Back by popular demand, Herb Newsome returns to tell the story of the early days of hip hop through DJing, Emceeing, B-Boying and Graffiti Art. Set in the Bronx, NY, at a time when urban decay and gang culture inspired a people to create their own form of expression, Newsome plays 10 characters using music, dance, video, graffiti, and rhyming to take you on a journey to the past to discover how each hip hop element came into existence.
