"The Coen Brothers’ Academy Award–winning adaptation of Cormac McCarthy’s novel stands as one of the most unsettling American films of the 21st century. Set against the bleak landscapes of West Texas, No Country for Old Men follows intersecting lives pulled into a spiral of violence after a drug deal goes wrong, along with the unstoppable force that follows in its wake."

"This smash-hit musical follows an all-girl singing group as they rise from obscurity to superstardom in the 1960s and 70s.

Directed by award-winning director and Broadway choreographer Patdro Harris, DREAMGIRLS delivers powerful vocals, stunning movement, and a story that will stay with you long after the curtain closes."

"Music Director Robert Moody leads the orchestra through this masterpiece’s rich textures, dramatic contrasts, and somber beauty that defines Brahms’ symphonic legacy. Alexander Arutiunian’s Trumpet Concerto is a virtuosic showcase for the instrument, filled with dramatic contrasts and lively energy. Trumpet soloist Will Leathers brings the piece to life with dazzling technical skill."
