On Golden Pond
On Golden Pond Presented by Sutter Street Theatre at Sutter Street Theatre Jul 27 - Aug 19, 2018 This is the love story of Ethel and Norman Thayer, who are returning to their summer home on Golden Pond for the forty-eighth year. He is a retired professor, nearing eighty, with heart palpitations and a failing memory -- but still as tart-tongued, observant and eager for life as ever. Ethel, ten years younger, and the perfect foil for Norman, delights in all the small things that have enriched and continue to enrich their long life together. They are visited by their divorced, middle-aged daughter and her dentist fiancé, who then go off to Europe, leaving his teenage son behind for the summer. The boy quickly becomes the “grandchild” the elderly couple have longed for, and as Norman revels in taking his ward fishing and thrusting good books at him, he also learns some lessons about modern teenage awareness -- and slang -- in return. |

The Kingston Trio
The Kingston Trio Presented by Harris Center for the Arts at Harris Center for the Arts Sep 30, 2018 There is nothing like the experience of performing before an adoring audience. Successful groups become icons and often extend their performing years as long as they can. Performers are human and their productive years are limited. The exposure through live performances of the phenomena they have created is left either to new groups performing tributes to the original or, in rare cases, a continuation of the original group with replacements, which we call a legacy group. The Kingston Trio is a legacy group. It has just become a true meaning of the term "legacy" as the mantle has been handed down to Josh Reynolds, the son of Nick Reynolds, one of the original members of The Kingston Trio. The Kingston Trio has been diligently preparing a brand new and exciting show. Josh and Nick's cousin, Mike Marvin, along with the talented Tim Gorelangton will now continue the performing legacy of… |

An Evening with Bruce Hornsby
An Evening with Bruce Hornsby Presented by Harris Center for the Arts at Harris Center for the Arts Nov 26, 2018 Bruce Hornsby’s work displays a creative iconoclasm that’s been a constant in the artist’s two-and-a-half decade recording career. His commercial stock soared early on, when “The Way It Is” – the title track of his 1986 debut album – became one of the most popular songs on American radio. Despite his early mainstream successes, Hornsby has pursued a more personal, idiosyncratic musical path, focusing on projects that sparked his creative interest, including collaborations with the Grateful Dead, Spike Lee, Ricky Skaggs, Don Henley, Ornette Coleman, Bob Dylan, Bela Fleck, Justin Vernon, Bonnie Raitt, Pat Metheny, and Robbie Robertson. Hornsby’s performance will offer a glimpse of a restless spirit who continues to push forward into exciting new musical terrain. |
