SUMMARY:Klorkhana: The Tyrant World Premiere of a Science Fiction Opera about a Tyrant who takes over a planet
DESCRIPTION:Philadelphia\, PA — “Klorkhana: The Tyrant\,” will be presented in full in a concert setting.  Both book and music are written by Kate Quinn. \nKlorkhana is the official Mind Healer of the planet of Sephro but instead of healing minds\, he corrupts them.  He projects false love into people in exchange for stealing their energies for his own use.  His favorite thing to do is rob women of their special spiritual essences that help heal minds and bodies in ways men can’t duplicate.  Klorkhana and many men of Sephro are envious of women for having certain gifts men don’t possess.  Instead of appreciating what they have\, they want what they don’t have\, at any cost.  Klorkhana soon has almost every man on planet Sephro following him\, particularly one susceptable young man named Aulio.  Together\, he and Klorkhana are determined to steal what women have\, and use it for themselves. \nOnly Coran\, Warrior Overseer and Security Chief of the entire planet\, her mate Tanna and Klorkhana’s former mate Destylla are able to form an army to stop this tyrant.  No matter what the outcome\, these rebels are determined to bring Planet Sephro back to its former glory. \nThe opera concert will take place with the Philly Fringe on Thursday and Friday\, September 18 & 19\, 2025 at 7:00 pm at The Rotunda\, 4014 Walnut Street\, Philadelphia\, PA 19104. \nAdmission:  Pay what you can (PWYC) Options \nDuration: Opera – approximately 1 hour in length plus a Talk Back Q & A session (1 hr) after the opera \nThis event is part of the 2025 Philadelphia Fringe Festival. \nClick https://phillyfringe.org/events/klorkhana-the-tyrant/ for more info or to RSVP. \n

SUMMARY:Sympathy Towards a Soldier: The Music and Death of Major John André
DESCRIPTION:SYMPATHY TOWARDS A SOLDIER: \nThe Music and Death of Major John André \nFriday\, Sept 19th at 7pm \nGloria Dei\, Old Swedes’ Church • 916 S Swanson St\, Philadelphia PA 19147 \nTickets: $30 general\, $15 student with ID \nDuring the British occupation of Philadelphia\, Major John André was a favorite among tory young ladies and well loved by his peers. An accomplished flutist and artist\, Major André organized the opulent Meschianza celebration for General Wm Howe that scandalized the city’s beleaguered citizens. The celebration included music on barges in the Delaware\, a joust\, feasting and a candlelit ball. Within two years of the Meschianza\, Major André was arrested for espionage in league with Benedict Arnold. Fearing an ignominious death by hanging\, Major André begged General Washington to have “sympathy towards a soldier” and grant him death by firing squad. In this concert we’ll explore the musical life and ungentlemanly death of this “man of honor” with readings from contemporary letters\, diaries and newspapers\, and music of the British occupation. Music of James Oswald\, Carl Friedrich Abel\, JC Bach\, James Hewitt\, John André\, traditional ballads and dances as danced by the British Army during their occupation of Philadelphia in 1777-78. Music performed on period instruments\, in the interpretive style of the 18th c. \nWith Anika Kildegaard\, voice; Francis Liu\, violin;  Eve Miller\, cello; John Walthausen\, harpsichord; and & Steven Zohn\, flute

SUMMARY:Conversation + Book Launch with Tiffany E. Barber
DESCRIPTION:Join The Print Center to celebrate Tiffany E. Barber’s new publication\, Undesirability and Her Sisters: Black Women’s Visual Work and the Ethics of Representation\, published by New York University Press. Barber will discuss the inspiration behind the project and tell us more about the book. This event will be presented both in-person and on Zoom\, and is free and open to the public. \nIn the wake of contemporary art’s post-Black turn and the mainstreaming of intersectionality\, Undesirability and Her Sisters charts a new genealogy of Black women’s art that exposes the unfinished project of racial and gender empowerment in the twenty-first century. Tiffany Barber argues that Black women’s social positions at the intersection of race\, gender\, sexuality and class are inherently queer\, thus spurring unexpected aesthetic strategies that throw into high relief the ethical terrain of what it means to be Black and a woman now.

SUMMARY:Pinky Promise
DESCRIPTION:Pinky Promise by Paper Doll Ensemble \nThis world-premiere production explores the nuanced emotional lives of three tweens on the precipice of adolescence\, set in the vibrant\, emotionally-charged microcosm of a summer camp in 2005. When a deep rift forms in the friendship between our ensemble Hiedi\, Miriam\, and Phoebe\, what unravels is a comedic and heartbreaking meditation on loyalty\, identity\, and growing up. At its core\, Pinky Promise is about a moment that can feel world-ending at age twelve\, and still echo decades later. \nPinky Promise is created through Paper Doll’s signature collaborative devising process\, with surreal visuals\, heightened physicality\, and a fierce comedic edge\, the piece captures the terrifying exhilaration of change—where hobby horses\, pop songs\, and the sacred power of a pinky promise collide. \nAdult performers embody their preteen characters with uncanny precision\, highlighting the tension between how we experience youth and how we remember it. In its most ambitious production to date\, Paper Doll welcomes Carly Bodnar as guest director. \nFunny\, painful\, and achingly familiar\, Pinky Promise invites audiences to revisit the formative fractures of early friendship—and ask how our earliest heartbreaks shape who we become. \nRun Time: 75 mins\nTicket Price: FREE\, PWYC Options $5+\nVenue: Plays & Players Skinner Studio\nDates: September 18\, 2025 – September 21\, 2025 \n\n\nSeptember 18\, 2025 7.00pm\nSeptember 19\, 2025 7.00pm\n\n\n\n\nSeptember 20\, 2025 2.00pm\nSeptember 20\, 2025 7.00pm\n\n\n\n\nSeptember 21\, 2025 2.00pm

SUMMARY:new heaven new earth
DESCRIPTION:Bold Afro-Centric reimagining of Antony & Cleopatra returns after sold-out Philly Theatre Week Debut \nShakespeare in Clark Park (SCP)\, in collaboration with Upstream Performance Collaborative (UPC) and Cannonball\, presents new heaven new earth\, a bold\, revisionist Afrocentric adaptation of Shakespeare’s Antony and Cleopatra by multidisciplinary artist Rayne. Directed by SCP Producing Artistic Director Shamus and featuring live music by Karen Smith\, this allegorical work blends ancient history with poetic futurism\, as Cleopatra faces off against a soothsaying Crocodile on the edge of empire and asks “when peace demands war\, what will you become\, and for whom?” Following an oversold\, one-night premiere at Philly Theatre Week\, new heaven new earth continues its development with two staged readings at The Proscenium at The Drake\, running September 1-16\, 2025. \nThe reading stars a host of Barrymore Award recognized talent and Shakespeare in Clark Park alumni including Kishia Nixon as Cleopatra\, Ross Beschler as Marc Antony\, STARFIRE as Charmian & Crocodile\, Adam Howard as Octavius et al\, Dante Brattelli as Enobarbus et al\, and Katherine Perry as Octavia et al. Live percussion is performed by Karen Smith\, a 2023 Pew Fellowship recipient known for her percussion-based collaborations and leadership of The Karen Smith Experience and Sistahs Laying Down Hands. \nnew heaven new earth was commissioned by Shakespeare in Clark Park in 2024 as part of a season-long initiative to develop original works in direct conversation with Shakespeare’s text and uplift Queer\, Trans and Non-Binary voices. Rayne’s plays have been produced or developed with Primary Stages\, Theatre Exile\, Azuka Theatre\, PlayPenn\, and more\, supported by the Leeway Foundation\, Independence Foundation\, and the Pew Center for Arts and Heritage. Shamus’s directing credits span Shakespeare in Clark Park\, Boston Playwrights’ Theatre\, the Playwrights’ Center\, Pridefest at the Tank\, and the Samuel French Off-Off-Broadway Festival. \nFor more information\, visit www.shakespeareinclarkpark.org or follow us on social media.
