SUMMARY:Music from Maryland Traditions and Annapolis’ Tuesday Club
DESCRIPTION:Local celebrities in Irish music–Peter Brice on button accordion\, Tess Hartis on fiddle\, and guest pianist Donna Long– are featured in a concert of 18th and 19th century music from Maryland and Ireland. The concert will highlight minutes from the manuscript of Annapolis dancing master John Ormsby who taught dancing here in the 1750s. Also featured is music from Annapolis’ Tuesday Club\, a colonial gentleman’s club. Though dance had always been a popular form of entertainment in America and Europe\, dance masters like Ormsby heightened the trend through private and public instruction.  This evening’s program is inspired by the research of former United States Naval Academy musician John Barry Tally who wrote Secular Music in Colonial Annapolis: The Tuesday Club 1745-56. \nPeter and Tess perform regularly as “The Livebox\,” and focus on the revival of traditional music from Maryland\, restoring its links to ancient traditions in Ireland and Scotland\, while identifying and demonstrating the mutations in popular American music movements.

SUMMARY:CP presents Poor Clare by Chiara Atik
DESCRIPTION:Picture it: Assisi\, Italy. The year is 1211. Clare has everything — beauty\, status\, a swoon-worthy rich fiancé\, and gifts that scream medieval luxury. Total dream life\, right? \nSo why can’t she stop thinking about Francis — the town eccentric who ditched his wealth\, his wardrobe\, and basically his entire vibe because he thinks helping the poor actually matters? Everyone else says he’s lost it. Clare… isn’t so sure. \nAs her perfectly curated world starts to feel a little less perfect\, Clare finds herself questioning what success\, goodness\, and happiness really mean. This hilarious\, delightfully anachronistic retelling of the true story of St. Clare asks: what does it really cost to do good — and why\, nearly a thousand years later\, are the rich and the rest still living in completely different realities? \nThurs-Sat @8PM\nSun @2PM
