Dance Performance | Souleymane Badolo’s Dance my life


Inspired by the contrast in the paces of life between his native home of Burkina Faso and his adopted home of New York City, Souleymane Badolo’s Dance my life is a celebration that crosses boundaries to highlight the similarities of what we all experience. In the fast-paced world of the present, there is a sense of urgency to accomplish as much as possible as fast as possible. Yet, people everywhere still feel and think about many of the same things – including work, family, prayer, joy, and sadness. This commonality of the human experience is at the center of Dance my life.

Discussion | America's Hidden History of Resistance: The Nation at 150


The year 2015 marks the 150th anniversary of The Nation magazine. The story of The Nation is also the story of our country over the course of US history. For the past 150 years America’s hidden history — of domestic oppression and overseas conquest, but also of opposition and resistance — has been recorded in the magazine’s pages. Over the decades that opposition has had many names from the patrician reformers of the 1860s through a vast array of economic and political struggles to more recent fights against corporate globalization, free trade, economic inequality, the destruction of the environment and police brutality. Join a conversation about The Nation's and the nation's past, present and future with editor and publisher Katrina vanden Heuvel, Schomburg Center for Black Culture director Khalil Muhammad, historian Greg Grandin and D.D. Guttenplan, Nation Europe correspondent and author of The Nation. A Biography. Moderated by journalist and author Laura Flanders.

Dance Performance | Dance: A Body in a Station by Eiko


“Eiko’s dancing demanded a certain degree of patience from the viewer. Each deliberate movement carried the aura of a secret ritual. She had the uncanny knack of arranging her limbs in a way that made them seem abstracted, bones piled at oblique angles rather than a congruent human form. The cumulative effect holds a strange beauty, arresting both the visual and kinesthetic senses.” – The Brooklyn Rail, December 18, 2014, Madison Mainwaring

Theater | Shakespeare in the Park: The Tempest with Oscar Nominee Sam Waterston


Academy Award nominee Sam Waterston (Newsroom, Law & Order, The Public’s King Lear) returns in THE TEMPEST, Shakespeare’s classic about young love, old enemies and the eternal magic of storytelling. Exiled to a fantastical island, Prospero unleashes a churning storm to shipwreck the traitor brother who stole his throne and settle the score once and for all.
