SUMMARY:Cats presented by The Good Night Theatre Collective
DESCRIPTION:This October\, Good Night will mount a rendition of a fantastical\, surrealist stage masterpiece.

SUMMARY:Trampled by Turtles
DESCRIPTION:Trampled by Turtles are from Duluth\, Minnesota\, where frontman Dave Simonett initially formed the group as a side project in 2003. At the time\, Simonett had lost most of his music gear\, thanks to a group of enterprising car thieves who’d ransacked his vehicle while he played a show with his previous band. Left with nothing more than an acoustic guitar\, he began piecing together a new band\, this time taking inspiration from bluegrass\, folk\, and other genres that didn’t rely on amplification.\n\nSimonett hadn’t played any bluegrass music before\, and he filled his lineup with other newcomers to the genre\, including fiddler Ryan Young (who’d previously played drums in a speed metal act) and bassist Tim Saxhaug. Along with mandolinist Erik Berry and banjo player Dave Carroll\, the group began carving out a fast\, frenetic sound that owed as much to rock & roll as bluegrass.\n\nThere crossover appeal has landed them on the #1 spot of Billboard’s Bluegrass Charts on every record they’ve released while playing marquee festivals like Coachella\, ACL Fest\, and Lollapalooza. Countless tours with diverse artists ranging Shakey Graves\, Zach Bryan\, Wilco\, Caamp\, Mt Joy\, Willie Nelson\, Avett Brothers\, Lord Huron and many more have followed solidifying a loyal fanbase. Their last full length album Alpenglow was produced by Wilco’s Jeff Tweedy. 2025 began with the band releasing a cover of Bon Iver’s “From Emma” with Caamp’s Taylor Meier (aka Sumbuck) on lead vocals. A few new collaborations are set to be announced in the coming weeks.

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.
