It’s showtime! Based on Tim Burton’s dearly beloved film, this hilarious musical tells the story of Lydia Deetz, a strange and unusual teenager whose whole life changes when she meets a recently deceased couple and a demon with a thing for stripes. With an irreverent book, an astonishing set, and a score that’s out of this Netherworld, BEETLEJUICE is “SCREAMINGLY GOOD FUN!” (Variety). And under its uproarious surface (six feet under, to be exact), it’s a remarkably touching show about family, love, and making the most of every Day-O! |

Fred Hersch is a seminal figure in modern jazz piano who has shaped the art form for more than three decades as an improviser, composer, bandleader, and educator.

He is a devoted educator who has taught at New England Conservatory, The Juilliard School, and the New School, while giving master classes worldwide. His impact on a new generation of jazz pianists is profound, shaping artists from Brad Mehldau to Sullivan Fortner, prompting Jason Moran to call him “like LeBron James on the basketball court — perfection.” |
