SUMMARY:HOME
DESCRIPTION:Both breathtaking and hilariously relatable; we are all at times a little\nhomesick. PUSH Physical Theatre—the multi award-winning team behind Orlando\nFringe’s “best play” HYDE and the Off-Broadway sensation GENERIC MALE\n—create a visually stunning\, acrobatic dreamscape where we long for home while\naching to escape it. \nThrough a spectacular fusion of movement\, illusion\, and dynamic physicality\,\nHOME  unpacks the fragile\, shifting nature of home. As the architecture\naround us collapses\, and reassembles\, we struggle to hold onto a place that\nwon’t stay still. \nFoundations crack\, rooms shift\, walls bend\, doors vanish. This heartwarming\nstory explores the tension between house and home—what we build\, what we lose\,\nand what we’re always searching for. Where do we belong? And what happens when\nthe place we call home refuses to stay the same? \nRun Time: 80 – 90 minutes\nAge Range: All ages \nSupported by __Irwin and Sadie Cohen Fund \n“Darren Stevenson\, Heather Stevenson and Ashley Jones show supreme command\nof their bodies as they tumble\, balance and support one another …”\n– Orlando Sentinel\n“…perfect metaphor-in-motion… myth and magic… super-strong acrobatics…”\n– City Newspaper\n“The most fantastic\, emotional event I have ever experienced. Absolutely\nremarkable”\n– Audience rave \nABOUT PUSH AND THE PERFORMERS\nIntense athleticism\, gravity-defying acrobatics\, and soulful artistry are the\ntrademarks of award-winning\, genre-defining PUSH Physical Theatre. Founded in\nRochester\, NY in 2000 by husband-and-wife team\, Darren and Heather Stevenson\,\nout of a desire to “push” the boundaries of conventional theatre\, PUSH has\nsince earned an international reputation as one of the world’s leading\nphysical theatre companies. \nOver the last two years PUSH has performed at the International Festival for\nJewish Theatre in Jerusalem\, appeared Off-Broadway at the Soho Playhouse\,\ngarnered multiple awards including “International Fringe Encore Series”\, four\n“Best of the Fest” awards as well as “Critics Choice Best Show” at Orlando\nFringe and “Outstanding Production” at Ottawa Fringe\, a “Jenny” in Winnipeg\nand “Media Pick” with a 5 out of 5 star review in Edmonton.\nPUSH has also been featured in acclaimed collaborations with the Grammy-\nwinning Ying Quartet\, the Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra\, and Pulitzer\nPrize-nominated composer Ricardo Zohn-Muldoon’s two multi-media operas.\nPUSH also produces its own works including RACE or ‘You’ve Seen Me Before\,’ in\ncollaboration with artist Hassiem Muhammad (online 2020); Generic Male: Just\nWhat We Need\, Another Show About Men (2021); Someone No One Can See\, a\ncollaboration with transgender artist Penny Sterling (2022); and Hyde (2023).\nPUSH has been recognized for service to the community through the Rochester\nCommunity Foundation’s 2023 Ames-Amzalak Award for Nonprofit Excellence\,\nUniversity of Rochester’s Lillian Fairchild Award\, Performing Artist of the\nYear Award from the Arts & Cultural Council for Greater Rochester\, and the\n“Community of Color” Black History Month Anton Germano Dance Award\, honoring\nadvocates for an inclusive and diverse community who affect positive change.\nPUSH engages underserved populations in areas with some of the highest poverty\nrates and too little access to the arts\, and provides workshops for children\nwith disabilities\, the National Technical Institute for the Deaf\, youth\ninvolved in the juvenile justice system\, and adults in senior facilities.\nTo serve historically excluded communities\, we are well aware of the need to\nseek out sources\, inspiration and material beyond the lived experiences of our\ncore company. Our creative consultants and focus groups include Black artists\nsuch as Thomas Warfield and Hassiem Muhammad\, transgender artist Penny\nSterling\, people from rural areas\, people with various disabilities\, members\nof the National Technical Institute for the Deaf\, and members of the\nUniversity of Rochester Office of Diversity and Inclusion.\nMore about the show and it’s creators:\nTo be homesick may embody a longing for home—or feeling sick of home. Today\nmany people say they ‘don’t feel at home’. But what do we mean when we speak\nof home? Is it a place? Is it other people? Or do we carry home with us? Using\ndance\, non-traditional partnering\, mime and more\, Home(sick) will tell stories\nthat draw audiences into questions about home: Where do I belong?’ What makes\nus feel ‘at home’—or not? What responsibilities do I have to this home\, to\nthis community? \nView event on Jlive: https://jlive.app/events/16761

SUMMARY:STORIED. The Jewish Contribution to Bob Dylan
DESCRIPTION:Storied returns to The Berman with an all new live concert experience\,\nSTORIED: The Jewish Contribution to Bob Dylan \, exploring the life\, music\,\nand meaning of Bob Dylan. Through a powerful blend of storytelling and live\nperformance\, this show uncovers the Jewish roots\, biblical influences\, and\ncultural forces that shaped one of the most influential artists of our time.\nFrom the folk scene to the poets\, the Beats\, the outcasts and outlaws\, and the\nBible\, audiences will experience how Dylan’s words became a bridge between\nancient tradition and modern music. Having been a thread running through each\nof Storied’s first five shows\, Dylan now takes center stage in a production\nthat brings together the stories\, songs\, and influences that have been hiding\nin plain sight\, but are rarely explored in one place. \nFor this special performance\, Storied founder Benji Rosenzweig is joined by\njournalist and cultural commentator Eve Barlow as co narrator\, adding a\ndynamic new perspective to the storytelling experience. Together\, they guide\naudiences through Dylan’s journey\, from protest anthems and biblical imagery\nto questions of identity\, purpose\, and authenticity. More than a concert\, this\nis an exploration of how music\, meaning\, and heritage intersect\, and an\ninvitation to reflect on how each of us can use our own voice and talents to\nmake an impact. \nThis concert will spotlight different aspects of Jewish identity as it\nintersects with the artist’s career\, exploring themes of community\,\nspirituality\, and resilience. “Music has always been a bridge between\ncultures\, and…music resonates deeply throughout the Jewish experience\,” says\nBenji Rosenzweig\, STORIED. Co-Creator and host of the evening. “We are\nexcited to continue creating a space where these stories can be heard and\ncelebrated through the universal language of music.” \nThis unforgettable evening promises a journey through music and storytelling\nas we honor the bonds between Jewish culture and reggae. In a setting similar\nto MTV _  Unplugged _meets VH1 Storytellers \, the band and Benji will go\nback and forth between storytelling and music. Don’t miss out on this fourth\nsession of STORIED\, a concert series audiences are raving about: \n“This program was great. The music was AMAZING. We were all rocking out and\nthey could not have been more fabulous. I loved all the stories!” – Grunge\nSession attendee \nStudent access opportunities supported by Jenny and Shimon Levy \nView event on Jlive: https://jlive.app/events/17079

SUMMARY:The Other Mozart by Sylvia Milo
DESCRIPTION:THE OTHER MOZART is an award-winning play telling the true\, forgotten\nstory of Nannerl Mozart\, the sister of Amadeus – a prodigy\, keyboard virtuoso\nand composer\, who performed throughout Europe with her brother to equal\nacclaim\, but her work and her story faded away\, lost to history.\nThis performance creates a multi-sensual experience and transports the\naudience into a world of outsized beauty and delight — but also of\noverwhelming restrictions and prejudice. There\, in communion with the\naudience\, this other Mozart at last tells her story. \nAbout The Production:\nCreated\, written and performed by (http://sylviamilo.com/)\, and\nnow also performed by (https://www.imdb.com/name/nm2533285/)\,\nTHE OTHER MOZART had a critically acclaimed Off-Broadway run in NYC at HERE\nArts Center\, earning Drama Desk and Off Broadway Alliance nominations\, and 8\nNew York Innovative Theatre (NYIT) nominations\, including Outstanding Full\nLength Script\, winning Outstanding Solo Performance and Original Music.\nTHE OTHER MOZART is based on facts\, stories and lines pulled directly from the\nMozart family’s humorous and heartbreaking letters. Along with music composed\nby her famous brother and Marianna Martines (a female composer who inspired\nNannerl). Original music was written for the play by (https://www.nathandavis.com/) and (http://www.phyllischen.net/) – featured composers of Lincoln Center’s\nMostly Mozart Festival\, BAM and the International Contemporary Ensemble. \nOur history is made of the stories we choose to tell. With Nannerl Mozart we\ncan actually trace what happened\, what were the forces that silenced and\nerased her. Nannerl’s story has been relegated for centuries as a footnote in\nher brother’s story. \nIt is important today because it is not a tale of a singular villain thwarting\nand oppressing a female genius: rather it is but one example of a systematic\ntragedy happening innumerable times throughout history\, and it is symbolic of\nso many other stories. \nHer story shifts the perspective\, bringing this other Mozart\, a female genius\,\ninto the history of the great – inspiring us to question the history we know\nand to search for more untold stories. \nDrama Desk Award nomination: Outstanding Sound Design in a Play\nNew York Innovative Theatre Awards: Outstanding Solo Performance (Sylvia\nMilo)\, Outstanding Original Music (Nathan Davis and Phyllis Chen)\n8 New York Innovative Theatre nominations:**Outstanding Production\, Full\nLength Script\, Solo Performance\, Direction\,**Original Music\, Sound Design\,\nSet Design\, Costume Design.\nOff Broadway Alliance Award nomination: Best Solo Performance (Sylvia\nMilo) \nView event on Jlive: https://jlive.app/events/17110
