LIVE PERFORMANCE SCHEDULE

Sat. Jan 18 Jeeyoon Kim - SOLD OUT

Award-winning classical pianist Jeeyoon Kim has delighted audiences across the United States and the world with her combination of sensitive artistry, ‘consummate musicianship, impeccable technique, and engaging and innovative concert experiences.’

Fri. Jan. 31 Yesterday & Today: The Interactive Beatles Experience

This amazing band, anchored by brothers Billy, Matthew, and Ryan McGuigan perform as themselves and leaves the song choices completely in the hands of the audience. This is done through request cards that audience members fill out prior to the show. On the cards audience members only need to fill out three things: their name, their favorite Beatles song, and the reason why they chose that song.

The cards are collected and minutes before the show begins, a set list is created based upon the songs chosen by that particular audience. As an added treat, the reasons that the audience members chose those songs make up the narrative of the evening. Every show is different, every show is interactive and every show proves that the Beatles music truly is the soundtrack to our lives.
