SUMMARY:Mahabharata Part Two: Dharma: The Life We Choose
DESCRIPTION:A Why Not Theatre Production presented by Canadian Stage with Why Not Theatre \nCreated and Written by Ravi Jain and Miriam Fernandes\, using poetry from Carole Satyamurti’s Mahabharata: A Modern Retelling \nA timeless epic\, retold with stunning visuals\, live music\, and bold new storytelling\nContinuing the story from Part 1\, King Janamejaya is told of the war fought by his ancestors – the battle of Kurukshetra and its devastating destruction of the planet\, the mass extinction that follows\, and of the survivors left behind to rebuild. \nIn Mahabharata’s Part 2 (Dharma)\, the storytelling tools evolve into captivating projections\, dynamic digital soundscapes\, and poetic stage design. The stories delve simultaneously into philosophical and political ideas\, and abstract and absolute truths. Interrogating the themes of justice and revenge\, Part 2 includes a 15-minute Sanskrit opera adaptation of the Bhagavad Gita (The Song of God)\, which is the most famous chapter of the Mahabharata epic. \nIn times of division\, how do we find wholeness? Are we destined to repeat the mistakes of our ancestors? Can we build a new world? King Janamejaya is confronted with both the battle of Kurukshetra and the battle inside his own heart. \nBUY TICKETS

SUMMARY:Bravo Niagara! Presents Samara Joy
DESCRIPTION:Presented as part of the Bravo Niagara! TD Jazz Series \nFew figures in jazz history have experienced the kind of success that vocalist Samara Joy has\, especially at such a young age. Still only 25\, she leads a career that can safely be called sensational. \nTo date she’s received five Grammy Awards\, including one for Best New Artist that has given the committed jazz singer the profile of a pop celebrity and made her a steady presence on network TV. With millions of likes on TikTok\, Joy has helped new\, young generations of music fans discover timeless American music. Her performance credits read like a list of the most legendary venues and events in all of jazz and R&B\, among them the Newport\, Monterey and Montreal Jazz Festivals\, the Apollo\, the Village Vanguard and Jazz at Lincoln Center. \nThroughout Joy’s rise\, her press has been glowing\, to say the least. Of Linger Awhile\, her breakout Verve Records debut\, DownBeat commented\, “With this beautiful recording\, a silky-voiced star is born.” The New York Times called her a “silky-voiced rising star\,” while NPR named her a “classic jazz singer from a new generation.” One sold-out concert at a time\, she’s earned a reputation as a masterful interpreter of jazz standards and a rightful heiress of the sound\, technique and charisma that defined her jazz heroines — including Sarah Vaughan\, Betty Carter\, Abbey Lincoln and Carmen McRae. Remarkably\, she didn’t truly immerse herself in the jazz tradition until college.
