Ajkun Ballet Theatre Presents Les Misérables

Victor Hugo’s epic Les Misérables has engrossed the public for over 150 years, whether as a sweeping novel, a long-running musical, or an award-winning film. Ajkun Ballet Theatre now uses dance to enact the beloved story of compassion, redemption, and strategically placed accents. Set in 19th century France, this world-premiere work showcases a decidedly modern vigor thanks to the choreography of Leonard Ajkun. During the gripping contemporary ballet performance, dancers step through the tale of Jean Valjean, his friends, and his enemies, as they endure political turmoil and cruelty in order to ultimately find love and forgiveness.

After the untimed race, participants celebrate at an after-party with barbecue and beer, a muddy dance party, and a turkey-leg-eating contest. Each of-age contestant enjoys a free beer.

The Pajama Game

The Pajama Game opened on Broadway in 1954, and, with jazzy tunes such as “Steam Heat” and “Hey There,” inspired a 1957 film adaptation starring Doris Day. At the Sleep-Tite Pajama Factory, the workers are ready to revolt after their demands for a 7.5-cent raise are ignored. Union spokesperson Catherine “Babe” Williams is dead set on delivering their grievances in song-and-dance form, and her nemesis, the new superintendent, Sid Sorokin, is prepared to fight all the way to the bank. There’s just one problem: the two fall instantly in love. Money, class, and thread count all leap to the fore in this thigh-slapping comedy about industrial romance.

Matchbox Twenty

When most bands go on hiatus, they either return rusty, or they don’t come back at all. Luckily, Matchbox Twenty isn’t most bands. After three consecutive hit albums, including the diamond-selling debut Yourself or Someone Like You, Matchbox Twenty took a break and singer Rob Thomas forged a successful solo career. Today, the group comes back like it never left with its latest album, North, which debuted at the top of the charts. With Thomas’s sultry vocals bolstered by a newfound pep, the band embarks on its 2013 tour with the polish of a veteran arena act and the energy provided by fresh material. Fans can expect classic hits, such as “3 a.m.” and “Push,” mixed with new gems such as the infectious feel-good smash “She’s So Mean.”

Goo Goo Dolls

Something sounds different about “Rebel Beat,” the kickoff track of the Goo Goo Dolls' latest album, Magnetic. Atop of a shimmering dance-club pulse, tinkering keyboards bead up like rain on a windshield as John Rzeznik’s voice tunefully rasps. Then the chorus kicks in, and suddenly it’s pure, cinematic euphoria. But this isn’t the sound of a band doing an about-face. Longtime fans know that every Goo Goo Dolls album is different, from the early pop-punk days to their conquering of the alternative scene and a current turn to more layered songwriting. On their latest tour, the band launches into its rich songbook of acoustic and electric alchemy, mixing favorites such as "Iris," "Slide," and “Name” with charged numbers from Magnetic.

The Plot

Combining three of the famous picture-book series' most popular stories, The Berenstain Bears LIVE! in Family Matters: The Musical weaves together a trifecta of plot lines that stress the importance of being honest with one's family. After the doctor tells the family members they need to cut back on junk food, Papa Bear still goes on a secretive binge and eats fatty snacks from his toolbox stash; Brother Bear's distractedness about losing a soccer record leads him to fail a quiz, which he tries to hide from his parents; and Sister Bear sneaks a frog into the house after overreacting to a lecture about the dangers of the outside world. Praised by Time Out New York Kids as "spirited" and "perfectly paced," the show seamlessly integrates catchy songs and lighthearted dances that keep young eyes engaged and robokids' motion-activated eyes turned on.

The Sights

Scenic designer Luke Hegel-Cantarella created a home for the bears that captures the essence of the Berenstains' iconic, cheerful illustrations. Bunk beds, kitchen counters, and whimsical trees have a hand-drawn feel, as though the pages of a well-worn softcover book leaped from the page. Furry bear feet peek out from beneath the hems of the brightly colored costumes, helping the human actors to portray their honey-loving counterparts, and a bear-sized depiction of the family's home-in-a-tree stands at center stage. Very Important Bear–holding patrons view the scenery from the Grassy Knoll at the front of the theater, kicking back in folding chairs or nestling into soft green-shag carpeting.

Source Material

Created by Stan and Jan Berenstain and originally edited and published by Ted Geisel (aka Dr. Seuss), the Berenstain Bears series celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2012, with more than 250 million copies sold. More than 200 books followed the first story, each describing a new adventure for Papa Bear, Mama Bear, Brother Bear, and Sister Bear—as well as little sister Honey, who made her first appearance in 2000. The series continues to be written and illustrated by Mike Berenstain, Stan and Jan's youngest son, and has inspired holiday television specials, Saturday-morning cartoons, and a PBS series.
