SUMMARY:REEL Art: installation Access Point - Work in Progress
DESCRIPTION:REEL Art: installation Access Point – Work in Progress\nby Adam Larsen in Collaboration with Sue Schroeder\nAccess Point is a feature length immersive documentary work in progress that follows individuals with disabilities as they navigate vast and varied natural landscapes. Through intimate interviews and vivid on-the ground footage\, the film explores often-overlooked barriers to outdoor accessibility—alongside powerful stories of resilience\, community\, and empowerment that emerge along the way.\nThe development of the documentary began with a diverse group of participantsconnected to Bay Area disability organizations\, including Ala Costa Centers\, BORP Adaptive Sports and Recreation\, The Center for Independent Living\, The Disability Cultural Center at UC Berkeley\, Friends of L’Arche San Francisco Bay Area\, Creative Growth\, and NIAD Art Center. These partnerships have provided invaluable insight\, ensuring the film authentically reflects the lived experiences of people across a range of disabilities. By featuring participants who are Deaf\, hard of hearing\, blind\, or who have mobility or cognitive disabilities\, Access Point highlights the many ways disability intersects with the natural world. It becomes not just a story of overcoming obstacles\, but also one of the universal human desire to engage with the outdoors—underscoring the transformative power of nature for all. Partnerships and participation in Access Point\nare currently expanding\, broadening its reach beyond the Bay Area to communities across the United States.\nAs participants explore outdoor spaces—from hiking trails and national parks to beaches\, forests\, and rivers—Access Point reveals the barriers people face\, including limited accessibility\, lack of resources\, and social or cultural exclusion. Each participant brings a unique relationship to nature: some are seasoned explorers whose access has been constrained\, while others are encountering these landscapes for the first time.\nThrough their experiences\, the film captures the joy\, reflection\, and sense of empowerment that nature can inspire when inequities in access are addressed. At its core\, Access Point is a story about inclusion\, equity\, and the right to experience the outdoors. It asserts that access to nature is a fundamental right not a privilege— and examines how inaccessible outdoor spaces intersect with broader societal inequities. By connecting the disability community with the environmental movement\,the film emphasizes that inclusive outdoor spaces are essential to a just and equitable society. It encourages a rethinking of how public spaces are designed and used\, fostering collaboration between environmental and disability advocates and sparking a broader conversation about access\, equity\, and belonging.\nUltimately\, Access Point invites viewers to reflect on their own relationships to the natural world and to envision a future where outdoor spaces are welcoming to everyone. Through compelling storytelling and the beauty of natural landscapes\, the documentary advocates for a world in which nature is a shared space—accessible\, engaging\, and inspiring for all.

SUMMARY:The Emory Cinematheque Presents: School Daze (1988)
DESCRIPTION:Directed by Spike Lee\n1988 | 121 min. | 35mm print provided by UCLA Film & Television Archive\nIntroduced by Dr. Beretta Smith-Shomade and Actor/Dancer Kyme Hersi-Sallid. \nComing off the success of SHE’S GOTTA HAVE IT\, Spike Lee wrote\, directed\, produced\, and starred in the film SCHOOL DAZE in 1988. The film visualizes life at a fictional\, historically Black college\, Mission College\, one modeled after his alma mater Morehouse College and the other schools of the Atlanta University Center. During this homecoming week\, Lee’s musical illuminates concerns being grappled with in 1980s Black collegiate culture surrounding class\, color stratification\, and pledging at an HBCU. \nSCHOOL DAZE fosters debates on a multiplicity of fronts. Talking with students at Fisk University\, Lee recalls: “The fraternity members were upset about how fraternities were portrayed in the film. We had 90 minutes of heated dialogue” (LOS ANGELES SENTINEL). In a community debate on the film in Chicago\, educator Carol Adams expressed that Black folks desire to be accepted by the majority made them afraid to let the world in on “our secret color and class divisions” (CHICAGO DEFENDER). And writer Toni Cade Bambara notes that within weeks of its release\, it became “the subject of extravagant claims by folks who’d seen it and loved it\, who’d seen it and not liked it\, and who hadn’t checked it out yet but had their ear cocked to Communitysay.” Actor Billy Porter cites SCHOOL DAZE as one of his top three life changing films declaring: “It was us…It was enlarging\, my dream territory. I can be on screen?!” \nThe film stars Laurence Fishburne\, Giancarlo Esposito\, Tisha Campell\, and Kyme Hersi-Sallid. There will be a talk back after the screening with actor Kyme Hersi-Sallid who stars as Rachel in the film.\n—-\nThe Emory Cinematheque is a theatrical venue offered by Emory University’s Department of Film and Media. Each semester on Wednesday nights at 7:30pm in White Hall 208\, the Cinematheque hosts professional screenings introduced by Emory professors and special guests. All Cinematheque events are free and open to the public. The Cinematheque presents this screening event as part of our series 40 YEARS OF BROTHER SPIKE LEE\, a retrospective of the trailblazing director curated by Emory Professor of Film and Media\, Beretta E. Smith-Shomade.

SUMMARY:"The Foreigner"\, a comedy by Larry Shue
DESCRIPTION:Renegade Theatre Company is excited to present “The Foreigner”\, a comedy by Larry Shue. \nMAKE A RESERVATION in advance at bit.ly/RTCtheforeigner \nVENUE « Virginia-Highland Church at 743 Virginia Ave NE\, Atlanta\nThere is free parking available across the street at Virginia Highland Elementary School. There is limited parking onsite at the church. Please plan to take public transportation\, a ride share or arrive early to find street parking. We will begin shows promptly\, so please plan ahead to be on time. \nPERFORMANCE DATES\n• Wednesday\, July 15th\, 2026 • 8PM\n• Thursday\, July 16th\, 2026 • 8PM\n• Friday\, July 17th\, 2026 • 8PM\n• Saturday\, July 18th\, 2026 • 2PM & 8PM \nCOST OF ADMISSION\nWe offer admission on a “pay what you can” basis. We suggest a donation of $20 for folks who are able. Donations can be processed in CASH at the door or online via GiveLively (links to Venmo\, PayPal\, Stripe and more). \nCAUSE WE’RE SUPPORTING\nAs with all of our productions\, a portion of proceeds will be donated to a cause we believe in. To further align our production with the themes of acceptance and community that are the underpinning of this show\, a portion of the proceeds from this run will be donated to New American Pathways. As a Georgia-based nonprofit\, their mission is to help refugees and newcomers from all over the world navigate the journey from arrival to citizenship. By supporting their work in refugee resettlement\, English literacy\, and career advancement\, we hope to honor the play’s message of finding a sense of belonging and ensuring that everyone\, regardless of where they come from\, has the opportunity to thrive in our local community. \nSYNOPSIS\nIn a remote fishing lodge in rural Georgia\, a pathologically shy man named Charlie seeks a quiet escape from the world. To save him from the strain of conversation\, his friend convinces the local residents that Charlie is a “foreigner” who understands no English. The plan backfires with hilarious results as the lodge’s colorful inhabitants—from a cynical heiress to a scheming preacher—begin to treat Charlie as a silent confidant\, confessing their deepest secrets and dark scandals right to his face. What follows is a high-stakes\, mile-a-minute farce where a man who just wanted to be invisible finds himself the only person capable of saving the day.\n“A comic masterpiece… Shue’s play is a tribute to the power of the human spirit to find a common language\, even when the words are all wrong.” — The New York Times \nCONTENT WARNING\nWhile The Foreigner is a celebrated comedy\, its plot centers on a conflict with a local group motivated by xenophobia and extremism. Our production is committed to exploring these themes with modern intentionality\, specifically focusing on the absurdity of hate while prioritizing the safety of our performers and audience. To ground the conflict in a more recognizable contemporary context\, we will be utilizing a “Proud Boys” aesthetic and physicality for many of the antagonists. In terms of staging\, we plan to use very limited traditional regalia\, supplementing the wardrobe with modern-inspired “inflammatory” costuming (ie: “Proud Boys” references). This approach allows us to clearly identify the threat and the play’s anti-bigotry message without unnecessarily overwhelming the space with historical trauma-based imagery. We are dedicated to maintaining an open dialogue throughout the rehearsal process to ensure a supportive environment for all artists involved. \nWHEELCHAIR ACCESS CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE – Our wheelchair elevator is currently out of commission and being serviced. We’ll update this form as soon as it is up and running again. Please email info@renegadetheatreco.org for any questions about accessing the space.

SUMMARY:18:30EST Artists Talk with Dietrich Eichmann & Jeff Arnal
DESCRIPTION:Dietrich Eichmann & Jeff Arnal will talk with Artistic Director Sue Schroeder on Thursday\, September 10\, at 6:30 PM. Tune in at coredance.org/livestream! \nThese artists will come together to discuss Eichmann and Arnal’s collaborative performance presented as an activation for the “residue…what remains” exhibition curated by Sue Schroeder for Leicester Gallery\, De Montfort University in Leicester\, UK\, from February 6 to June 7\, 2026. \nABOUT THE PERFORMANCE\nAmerican percussionist Jeff Arnal and German composer and pianist Dietrich Eichmann have been playing free improvisations as a duo since 2002. Despite the geographical distance they have enjoyed continuous collaboration and have performed at venues such as the Goethe Institute NYC\, Zeitgeist Gallery Boston\, Improvised and Otherwise\, Brooklyn/NY\, Zeitgeist Gallery Cambridge/MA\, University of Pittsburgh\, Bennington College/VT\, DeSingel Antwerp\, Radio Bremen\, Exploratorium Berlin\, Phenomorphonic Hamburg\, Les rencontres musique et littérature Paris\, Neue Musik im Fläming NMIF\, and Improdimensija Vilnius.\nOver the past 20 years\, their music has constantly renewed and reformulated itself; during a tour in 2023\, Arnal & Eichmann increasingly defined their current state of aggregation as a physical installation in space with sculptural and colourful approaches. \nThere is a proximity here to the work of Stefan Wolpe\, who had close ties to the Bauhaus and was director of the music department at Black Mountain College from 1952 to 1956. As executive director of the Black Mountain College Museum in Asheville\, NC\, Jeff Arnal regularly curates\, writes and lectures on the extraordinary legacy of BMC and the musicians and artists who worked there\, including John Cage\, Merce Cunningham\, Lou Harrison\, David Tudor and Stefan Wolpe\, whom Dietrich Eichmann counts among his most important influences as a composer. \nTo mark the centenary of the opening of the Bauhaus Dessau in 1926\, Eichmann has composed the ‘Concerto for Orchestra\, Percussion & Piano’\, which will be premiered on 7 and 8 February\, 2026 with the Saxony-Anhalt State Youth Orchestra in Halle (Germany). The conductor is Michael Wendeberg\, and the soloists are Jeff Arnal and Dietrich Eichmann\, who will improvise freely in dialogue with the composed orchestral parts.

SUMMARY:George Porter\, Jr. & Runnin' Pardners with Tinfish
DESCRIPTION:Legendary founder of The Meters George Porter\, Jr. brings his band to The Garden Club on Thursday\, September 10th. \nABOUT GEORGE PORTER JR & RUNNIN’ PARDNERS \nProlific New Orleans bassist George Porter Jr.\, released a brand new instrumental album entitled Porter’s Pocket with his longstanding quartet the Runnin’ Pardners available now via Color Red. Porter Jr is joined by his longtime collaborator keyboardist Michael Lemmler (Jubilation\, TriFunctA)\, drummer Terrence Houston (The Funky Meters\, Toubab Krewe)\, and newest member Chris Adkins (Raphael Saadiq\, Mark Broussard) on guitar. \nPorter was a founding member of The Meters and a lifelong session musician\, notably acting as Allen Toussaint’s go-to bass player throughout the 60s and 70s. Declared by Pitchfork as “one of the greatest bass players who has ever lived\,” and consistently finding himself atop Bass Player Magazine and Rolling Stone’s “Top 50 bassists of all-time”\, Porter was honored with a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in 2018 for his influential work with New Orleans funk progenitors The Meters. \n“Tito’s Dumpling Machine\,” has all the qualities that rare-groove vinyl crate diggers have always looked for from Porter. Drum breaks galore\, a syncopated New Orleans pocket and a funky Hammond organ lead will more than scratch the old-school Meters itch. Porter Jr. allows his Runnin’ Pardners band to really drive the track while George does what he does best: holding down the rhythm. \nThe song starts with a drum groove straight out of Uptown New Orleans circa 1970\, which would appear an odd choice for the lead single off a record but as Porter puts it\, “my attitude has always been that the drummer defines where the song goes and so I really enjoy letting a drummer set up the tune.” Along with leading his own band and collaborating with superstars such as Robert Palmer\, Patti Labelle\, Tori Amos\, and members of Grateful Dead amongst others\, Porter’s career could also be tracked by a lineage of great drummers that he has played with including the Meters’ Zigaboo Modeliste\, Russell Batiste Jr.\, and most recently\, Terrence Houston. \nAn innovator of funky music\, Porter gives credit to his hometown\, “Before there was ‘funk’ as people call it\, New Orleans musicians always had a way of using rhythm in a way nobody else was. I am just a student of Earl King and George French and that musical school and somewhere along the way\, people out there decided it was ‘funk.’ \nPorter Jr & Runnin’ Pardners continue to perform a weekly residency in New Orleans at the renown local favorite Maple Leaf Bar in addition to an incessant touring regimen across the country at tastemaker venues and festivals. Last winter\, the band was hand selected to open a 2 night run supporting The Black Crowes at The Capital Theatre in Portchester NY. \nFor more information and a complete list of George Porter Jr. tour dates\, merch and more visit georgeporterjr.com. \nTinfish: \nGrown from the fertile musical soil of the dirty south. Tinfish is an instrumental quartet blending elements of vintage soul\, funk and blues with danceable rhythms and down-home melodies. Formed by Delta Moon guitarist Mark Johnson\, Tinfish pays homage to groups like Booker T and the M.G.s\, Link Wray\, and the Meters\, while looking forward to the likes of modern instrumental wizards Khruangbin and Hermanos Guitarrez. Slide guitar and swirling organ mesh together over funky drums and bass for a hearty musical stew that’s hard to deny. Johnson is joined by Atlanta talent Chris Case on Keys/Organ\, Celeste Smith on bass and David Kaiser on drums.

SUMMARY:Seared
DESCRIPTION:With a savvy restaurant consultant and a waiter with dreams of his own added to the mix – everything starts to ignite in flames in this hilarious and insightful new play that explores what happens when art and money collide. \nAudiences will be up close to the action as the Woodstock Stage is transformed into the intimate kitchen of a New York City restaurant. SEARED is calling you into the kitchen to DISCOVER THE FIRE! \nHarry – a culinary genius with a flare for the dramatic – receives a positive review in a food magazine for his signature scallops and his business partner can see their restaurant finally making money. The catch – Harry refuses to ever make the scallops again. \nSEARED is a play that asks questions we are all deeply familiar with – what happens when the things that feel so intimately personal and our own become something that belongs to everyone? It’s also a play where we explore – intimately- the world of high-stakes cuisine\, and enter into the kitchen for a front-row look. We here at Woodstock Arts are so excited to create a fully functional kitchen onstage for this show and cook a meal for the audience to see\, hear\, and even smell! (We may not have enough portions for everyone to taste\, unfortunately).

SUMMARY:The Drowsy Chaperone
DESCRIPTION:Winner of five Tony Awards\, including Best Book and Best Original Score\, The Drowsy Chaperone is a loving send-up of the Golden Age musical\, featuring one show-stopping song and dance number after another.\nWith the houselights down\, a man in a chair appears on stage and puts on his favorite record: the cast recording of a fictitious 1928 musical. The recording comes to life and The Drowsy Chaperone begins as the man in the chair looks on. Mix in two lovers on the eve of their wedding\, a bumbling best man\, a desperate theatre producer\, a not-so-bright hostess\, two gangsters posing as pastry chefs\, a misguided Don Juan and an intoxicated chaperone\, and you have the ingredients for an evening of madcap delight.
