SUMMARY:Cass McCombs + Band
DESCRIPTION:Over the past twenty plus years\, Cass McCombs has journeyed a singular path as an uncompromising song-carver\, guitarist and singer. \n  \nAlong with the finest squadron of collaborators and bandmates\, his music travels gracefully over seemingly contradictory terrain\, from infectious guitar riffage to intensely personal lyricism. \n  \nIn August 2025\, Cass released his newest album “Interior Live Oak” to rave reviews including 5 stars from the Guardian\, an 8.1 from Pitchfork who said “16 songs and not a throwaway among them…\,” a 9/10 from Uncut Magazine\, and a rave from Mojo magazine who said “…this is the kind of record it’s impossible to be casual about.” \n  \nInterior Live Oak is his most personal album to date\, and\, more than any previous record\, shows his vast range as a lyricist and musician. It draws from everything Cass has created over two decades of experimentation to cut through with a direct and clarifying light. \n  \nCass McCombs will embark on his “Interior Live Oak Live” tour over 2026. He lives in New York City

SUMMARY:P. Pan et al. by Danielle Frimer (Staged Reading)
DESCRIPTION:A Staged Reading of P. PAN ET AL. \nWritten by Danielle Frimer\nDramaturgy by Erica Nagel \nHot take: Peter Pan was a lesbian who invented color film. \nA century ago\, Maude Adams—J.M. Barrie’s collaborator and America’s original Peter Pan—vanished from the spotlight. \nToday\, after stumbling across a government patent blog\, a playwright begins piecing together Maude’s forgotten second act: wrestling with glass\, wires\, engineers\, and her own sexuality. \nAs timelines twist and past and present blur\, P. Pan et al. explores queer erasure\, legacy\, loss… and the strange power of the wizards and wizardesses who shape the technologies that shape us.
