SUMMARY:An Evening Of Alton Brown
DESCRIPTION:Although he’s keeping the details under wraps\, Brown has said that with An Evening of Alton Brown he’s “stirring up some twists on his greatest hits\,” and “spicing things up with new demonstrations\, music\, and slightly scaled-down mayhem.”  No matter what\, An Evening of Alton Brown will present Brown as you’ve never seen him — unless\, of course\, you’ve been invited to his house. \nBest known for creating and hosting groundbreaking television such as Good Eats\, Iron Chef America\, Cutthroat Kitchen\, and Food Network Star\, Brown has also built one of the most successful culinary touring franchises ever\, performing live in more than 300 cities for well over half a million fans. With An Evening of Alton Brown\, he strips away the spectacle in favor of connection\, spontaneity\, and storytelling\, delivering a show that is equal parts humor\, science\, food\, and heart.

SUMMARY:Shaun Johnson: Run\, Run Rudolph Tour
DESCRIPTION:The Run\, Run Rudolph Tour is the 2026 holiday edition of The Big Band Experience\, led by Emmy® Award winner Shaun Johnson\, longtime frontman of Tonic Sol-fa and an artist with a Top 5 Billboard® album. Shaun has appeared in national television performances on NBC\, and his band’s music has been featured on HBO. The show blends classic big band swing with holiday standards and seasonal favorites\, delivered through tight arrangements and a modern stage presentation. \nDrawing on more than two decades of national touring\, Shaun brings both a vocalist’s and bandleader’s perspective to the holiday repertoire\, balancing high-energy performances with familiar songs that define the season. The focus remains on musicianship and ensemble work rather than nostalgia alone. \nBacked by a seasoned ensemble\, Run\, Run Rudolph reflects the performance style that has earned Shaun multiple Entertainer of the Year nominations—engaging and audience-forward—resulting in a holiday concert that feels both classic and current.
