Theater | Eugene O'Neill's A Touch of the Poet: One of His Finest Plays (virtual)


Proud and tempestuous Cornelius Melody (Con) owns a run-down inn and tavern near Boston in 1828. Laden with debt, Con clings to his tenuous identity as a landed gentleman and war hero and chastises his wife and daughter for actions that expose the family's humble Irish origins. When his daughter, Mary, falls in love with a wealthy American guest at their inn, Con's pride drives him to an explosive reckoning with his true place in the New World. Eugene O'Neill completed the play in 1942 but it was not performed until 1958, after his death. It has been produced on Broadway four times. Directed by Ciaran O'Reilly With Belle Aykroyd, Ciaran Byrne, Robert Cuccioli, Kate Forbes, Mary McCann, Andy Murray, David O'Hara, Tim Ruddy, David Sitler, and John C. Vennema

Slide Lecture | Radical Housewives: Jewish Women's Activism on the Lower East Side (virtual)


Trace the footsteps of Jewish women activists on the Lower East Side. Learn how they laid the groundwork for the modern Women's Movement with historian and writer Jennifer Young. At the turn of the 20th century, Jewish women on the Lower East Side struggled to support their families by keeping house in dark, crowded, and unsanitary tenement apartments, and by working long hours in factories and sweatshops. Confronted with low wages and unsafe working conditions, as well as rising costs of food and rent, many women responded by joining unions, organizing pickets, and even rioting in the streets.

Opera | Alice in the Pandemic: Lewis Carroll's reimagined timeless story (virtual)


Alice in the Pandemic takes a deep dive down the rabbit hole into the elasticity of time, the unmooring of life, the heroism of doing one's job, and the reconciliation of mother and daughter. This version of the timeless classic follows the nurse Alice as she navigates her way through a distorted and unfamiliar landscape to find her sick mother. The production uses newly developed technology that enables singers at remote locations to sing synchronously together as they interact with each other and their 3D avatars who lip sync in real time to live performance. Written by Cerise Lim Jacobs and composed by Jorge Sosa. Featuring Carami Hilaire, Eve Gigliotti, Daniel Moody and VOICES Boston.
