The Gavilán Brothers

FRI, OCT 13, 2023 / 7:30 PM

Violinist Ilmar Gavilán, and pianist Aldo López-Gavilán, are virtuoso Afro-Cuban musicians who grew up as prodigies in 1970s Havana. As highlighted in an impactful PBS documentary, after being separated for decades as innocent victims of complicated U.S.-Cuba political conflicts, the two have finally been able to come together as mature musicians, fulfilling a dream to create and perform together their genre-defying music rooted in classical, Latin jazz and Afro-Cuban traditions. Do not miss this unique and touching performance!

Beyond Babel

SUN, MAR 17, 2024 / 3 PM

There are two sides to every story...

Created by renowned choreographers, Keone & Mari Madrid and Josh & Lyndsay Aviner, you do NOT want to miss this critically acclaimed dance theatre show! Inspired by Shakespeare’s Romeo & Juliet, BEYOND BABEL is about the division of families, friends, and a community of people divided as authorities decide to build a wall between them. We follow two divinely linked lovers as they reconcile with the rising tensions of a populace cut in half. The show is set to a contemporary soundtrack and features a diverse cast of twelve elite dancers performing inventive and surprising West Coast urban choreography with music by Billie Eilish, Chance the Rapper, Mumford & Sons and more.
