    OUT FRONT THEATRE PRODUCTION

    BLKS

    Event Details:  When shit goes down, your girls show up. As sharply funny as it is poignant, BLKS introduces us to Octavia, Imani, and June – three twenty somethings in New York City hunting for intimacy and purpose in a city that doesn’t seem to care. They drink a lot. They smoke a lot. They try to have sex. A lot.

    When they need each other the most, the women rally to “resurrect their fly” in a day full of humorous and painful attempts to be heard through the noise that surrounds them. This 24-hour blitz explores what it is to be a queer black woman in New York, how we survive and save ourselves from ourselves.

    When: 3:00 p.m. on Sunday, February 1, 2025

    Where: Out Front Theatre
                 999 Brady Avenue NW

                 Atlanta, GA   30318

    Dinner Option: Food Terminal - Restaurant is located at 1000 Marietta St. NW,  (within walking distance of the theatre). Check out their website at foodterminal.com. 

    Cost: $32.55 Senior  $37.55 Adult

    Event Details:  Titulaire of the grand organ at Saint-Eustache Church in Paris and Professor of Organ Interpretation and Harmony at the Paris National Conservatory of Music, Thomas Ospital is a young artist who has quickly earned a place amongst the world's finest concert organists. Born in 1990, Thomas Ospital began his musical studies at the Conservatory Maurice Ravel in Bayonne, France in 2008. From 2008 until 2015 he was a student at the National Conservatory of Music in Paris where he earned five First Place prizes in organ, improvisation, harmony, counterpoint and fugue.

    Mr. Ospital currently serves as Titular Organist of the largest pipe organ in France; the Grand Organ at St. Eustache in Paris. Mr. Ospital is eager to perpetuate the art of improvisation in all its forms, including the accompaniment of silent films. His performances have taken him throughout Europe and North America. Both the superb voicing and generous acoustic of the nave have secured the success of the instrument as it continues to attract many renowned artists and visitors.

    The organ is Manuel Rosales's Opus 29, and stands among an impressive roster of his revolutionary instruments, including: Trinity Cathedral in Portland, OR; Rice University, Houston, TX (in collaboration with C.B. Fisk); Clairmont UCC Church, in Clairmont, CA; St. James Cathedral in Seattle, WA; and most famously, the Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles (in collaboration with Glatter-Goetz).

    ALLIANCE THEATRE PRODUCTION

    DUEL REALITY

    Event Details: From The 7 Fingers, the high-flying troupe behind the awe-inspiring stunts in the Alliance’s Broadway musical Water for Elephants, comes DUEL REALITY – an epic, cirque-infused performance inspired by Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet. Featuring their signature electrifying mix of circus, storytelling, music, and dance, this acrobatic tour-de-force for all ages has been described as “entirely entertaining and engaging” and “a spectacle that will truly astonish all who see it.” Imagine a world where star-crossed lovers are circus stars, their love story unfolding through graceful and death-defying acrobatics. Two feuding families engage in a battle of skill, each competition more daring than the last—while a pair of star-crossed lovers struggles to escape the showdown. They are fierce players, but do they care who wins or loses if playing the game can bring them closer together? The reimagined tale of two rival houses dazzles the senses and stirs the heart.

    February Book Selection

    Lie With Me

    by Phillippe Besson

    When: 3 PM on the last Wednesday of each month

    Where: We meet via Zoom.  Login information will be included in your registration confirmation email.

    About the book: From the Amazon description...

    Just outside a hotel in Bordeaux, Philippe chances upon a young man who bears a striking resemblance to his first love. What follows is a look back at the relationship he’s never forgotten, a hidden affair with a gorgeous boy named Thomas during their last year of high school. Without ever acknowledging they know each other in the halls, they steal time to meet in secret, carrying on a passionate, world-altering affair.

    Dazzlingly rendered in English by Ringwald in her first-ever translation, Besson’s powerfully moving coming-of-age story captures the eroticism and tenderness of first love—and the heartbreaking passage of time.

    ALLIANCE THEATRE PRODUCTION OF FIRES, OHIO

    Event Details: As a climate crisis threatens a small Ohio college town, the mopey grown children and second wife of a sort-of-mediocre professor must choose: stay and smolder, or leave and burn.

In addition to winning the 22nd annual Alliance/Kendeda National Graduate Playwriting Competition, FIRES, OHIO has been awarded the Kennedy Center's Paula Vogel Prize and the Mark Twain Award for Comic Playwriting.

    About the book: From the Amazon description...

    Seventeen-year-old Victor Callahan holds a secret as ancient as the shadows.

    Employed as a night porter in a quiet Irish nursing home, the teenager watches over a group of men he once knew a long time ago. Victor has orchestrated their reunion for a final farewell, a goodbye to those whose lives have shaped him through the years.

    But can he keep his secret from Lakeshore Manor's oldest resident, James O'Carroll?

    As he cares for these remnants of his past, memories of a bygone era haunt him - of wild adventures on the rugged Irish coast, of forbidden love hidden beneath the threat of eternal night, and of a shipwreck that changes everything...
