Dagmar Maston – Layer by Layer

Luka Blakeslee – “A place in time; as seen by a trespasser in the land of death"

The decay of the world around us and the unique ability of the camera to capture the state of its subject permanently.

The New York Times calls it “the best musical of this century.” The Washington Post says, “It is the kind of evening that restores your faith in musicals.” And Entertainment Weekly says, “Grade A: the funniest musical of all time.” Jimmy Fallon of The Tonight Show calls it “Genius. Brilliant. Phenomenal.” It’s THE BOOK OF MORMON, the nine-time Tony Award® winning Best Musical.

This outrageous musical comedy follows the adventures of a mismatched pair of missionaries, sent halfway across the world to spread the Good Word. With standing room only productions in London, on Broadway, and across North America, THE BOOK OF MORMON has truly become an international sensation. Contains explicit language.

Hear works by Debussy, Ravel, and Poulenc as we trace the development of French Impressionism from the late-19th through the mid-20th centuries and move into modern day Italian Impressionism.
