DESCRIPTION
ÂTRANSCRIPT
the2013 . 2014 . PERFORMING ARTS SEASON . . . . .
Chances are most of us are not originally from the place we currently reside. Many of our
ancestors, whether just one generation back or several, are from somewhere else.
Some people have explored new destinations so often that they need to affix pins to
a travel map to remember where they’ve been.
Opportunities for jobs, academics, and even simply a change in cultural or temporal
climate displace us, temporarily or permanently, from Point A to a new Point B.
Many people also love to travel—overseas or around the corner. We are curious about
how others live life and celebrate culture. Centre College takes pride that 85% of its
student body studies abroad at least one term. More pins to demark more Points.
Daily, it seems that we are always on the go. Point A to a new Point B. And, as much as
we love to travel, we always comment about not having enough time. This season’s Norton
Center Series helps connect those dots of where we are, where we’ve been, and where we
might go in the future. The Norton Center Series introduces us to new cultures, real or imaginary,
while reconnecting us with cultures with which we may be more familiar.
If you can find your seat in the theatre, you have arrived at Point A. As the lights dim, you are
conveyed to a new Point B, and perhaps a Point C and a Point D. Settle in and enjoy the
journey. You may need to fasten your seatbelts as some journeys are bumpier than others.
But don’t worry, before you know it, you will be transported back to all the familiar comforts of
Point A. However, while you physically never left, culturally, your internal travel map has a new
pin to signify a recently experienced journey. And that is a Point taken.
Are we there yet?

Described as “first-rate in every way,” by The New York Times, the Sphinx Virtuosi
is a chamber orchestra led on tour by the critically acclaimed Catalyst
Quartet. With a mission to advance diversity in classical music and inspire new
and young audiences with dynamic performances of cutting-edge repertoire by
a wide range of composers, this concert’s program is a reflection of the artists
themselves. The program includes works by Coleridge-Taylor Perkinson, Benjamin
Britten and Astor Piazzolla, and features Bach’s “Brandenburg Concerto No. 6”
and Vivaldi’s “Concerto for 2 Cellos and String Orchestra.” Comprised of
classical music competition winners from the Sphinx Organization, a national
non-profit founded in 1996 by MacArthur Fellow Aaron P. Dworkin, the Virtuosi
focuses on overcoming cultural stereotypes of classical music. Dworkin was
President Obama’s first appointee to the National Council on the Arts and was
named one of Newsweek’s “15 People Who Make America Great.”

This sizzling 38-member troupe of dancers, musicians, and singers—the most
popular folk dance company in Brazil—performs a mix of choreography from
African and South American traditions, including slave dances, the dramatic
capoeira (martial arts) and maculele warrior dance, the exhilarating samba
reggae, and the company’s masterpiece, Afixiré (“dance of happiness”). In an
electrifying and vibrant display of movement, Balé Folclórico Da Bahia
transforms traditional culture into “a spectacular display of color, movement,
music and drama” (Chicago Sun-Times). The energy they bring to the stage
leaves audiences celebrating in the aisles. Called “exuberant, indefatigable,
and virtuosic” by The New York Times, this acclaimed troupe celebrates
candomblé, the uniquely Bahian spiritual practices rooted in the Yoruba religion
brought to Brazil by West African slaves. With explosive drumming, frenzied
dancing, and irrepressible energy, the artists “push themselves to their physical
limits…they dance so hard that their spirits show” (Dance Magazine).

. . . friday . NOVEMBER 1 . 2013 . 8:30PM . . . . . . . . . . .Country music superstar Scotty McCreery has had a blindingly rapid rise to
stardom since he became American Idol’s youngest male winner at age 17,
as well as the show’s first male country winner in 2011. The Garner, NC native
quickly emerged as one of country music’s most successful new artists after his
debut album topped the Billboard Top 200 and Top Country charts, earning
him a spot in the Guinness World Records book for being the youngest
male in history to score a No.1 album on the all-genre chart with a
debut release. The hot streak continued as he went on to win New Artist
of the Year at both the 2011 American Country Awards and the 2012
Academy of Country Music Awards. He also picked up the USA
Weekend Breakthrough Video of the Year for “The Trouble With
Girls” at the 2012 CMT Music Awards. McCreery was ranked
No. 1 on Billboard’s list of Top New Country Artists in 2011 and
also ranked No. 4 on Billboard’s list of “21 Under 21: Music’s
Hottest Minors 2012,” for his second consecutive year.

history, Béla has performed and collaborated with Edgar Meyer, Dave Matthews
Band, Bonnie Raitt, the Grateful Dead, Yo-Yo Ma, Chris Thile, and many more.
This season, he takes the stage with the adventurous string quartet Brooklyn
Rider. At home in both clubs and concert halls, Brooklyn Rider has appeared
in venues as varied as Carnegie Hall, the Library of Congress and SXSW. Much
of the group’s desire to extend the borders of conventional string quartet
programming comes from their longstanding participation in Yo-Yo
Ma’s Silk Road Ensemble. In addition to their Norton Center
performance with the Silk Road Ensemble in March 2013, Brooklyn
Rider previously performed at the Norton Center with Yo-Yo Ma in 2008.

. . . monday . NOVEMBER 18 . 2013 . 7:30PM . . . . . . . . . .In a 75-minute tour de force one-man production, stage and film actor Stephen
Lang enters into the personas of seven real American soldiers and sailors, rendering
firsthand accounts of the actions which resulted in each receiving the nation’s
highest military accolade: the Congressional Medal of Honor. Beyond Glory
gathers these men together in the present, as aged and scarred vets, to look back
on the defining moments of their lives, and to examine with pride, pain, and wonder
the meaning of courage and humility. Beyond Glory is not simply a play, but a
journey through pivotal moments of the American story, moments that
resound with lasting meaning for audience members old enough to remember,
and those young enough to yearn for inspiration. Stephen Lang is known for
numerous stage and screen works, including Avatar (Colonel Miles Quaritch),
Public Enemies, Gettysburg, A Few Good Men, Terra Nova, and Death of a
Salesman (on Broadway with Dustin Hoffman).

romp” by the Austin Chronicle, this is a spectacle unlike any other and a show for
the kid in everyone. In this performance, Book One: Target Earth, Pulitzer Prize–
winning reporter Molly Sloan and her intrepid research assistant team up with a
mysterious librarian to face the most terrible threat humanity has ever known: an
invading force of sludge monsters from outer space known as the Zygonians.

audiences across 26 countries on five continents. Each show—like every Circus
Oz performance over the past 34 years—is a one-of-a-kind wonder. “With a raw,
upbeat energy and lovely spirit” (Sunday Telegraph), this audacious spectacle of

H.M.S. PINAFORETHE NEW YORK GILBERT& SULLIVAN PLAYERSArtistic Director ALBERT BERGERET
Now. Sea. Here. The seaworthy musical satire H.M.S. Pinafore put the wind in
Gilbert & Sullivan’s sails. The captain’s daughter has caught the eye—and the
heart—of two men at once: a lowly sailor and the pompous Sir Joseph Porter.
Only Little Buttercup can resolve the mismatched mess. Ride a wave of music
and laughter as romantic sailors, sisters, cousins, and aunts sing and dance their
way across the deck of the fanciful British naval vessel with the improbable name.
Set directly on the ship’s deck, this energetic production offers the rich
sounds of a full orchestra, chorus, and soloists who seamlessly merge the
classic elegance of the musical with a contemporary sense of humor to keep the
show alive and exciting for a modern audience. H.M.S. Pinafore, or The Lass That
Loved A Sailorwas first performed at the Opera Comique in London, England on
May 25, 1878, and has remained popular on both sides of the Atlantic ever since.

father sang: spirityouall. Bobby McFerrin celebrates the transcendence of the
American spirit with joyful new takes on familiar tunes. The ten-time Grammy®
winner will always be the guy who sang Don’t Worry, Be Happy, but his
“greatest gift to audiences may be transforming a concert hall into a playground,
a village center, a joyous space” (The LA Times). What Bobby McFerrin
does is not an act; it is spontaneous invention. His legendary solo vocal
performances have dazzled audiences all over the world and sent them home
singing. Join Bobby and his band for an evening of brilliant musicianship,
community spirit and pure fun. “There is something almost
superhuman about the range and technique of…Bobby McFerrin.
He sounds, by turns, like a blackbird, a Martian, an operatic

A cross between chilling crime drama and Baroque opera with live orchestra,
The Infernal Comedy: Confessions of a Serial Killer is based on the real-life
story of twice-imprisoned serial killer Jack Unterweger (played by John Malkovich).
Mysteriously back from the grave for an autobiographical book tour, Unterweger
oozes disconcerting charm, as he narrates his sordid and shocking history. Each
chapter, exploding with dark humor and tempestuous irony, concludes with an
aria from Beethoven, Mozart, Haydn, Vivaldi, and more, sung live by stunning
sopranos—all too tempting prospects for Unterweger’s bloodlust. Best known
for the 1999 film Being John Malkovich, actor John Malkovich has
appeared in over 65 movies. For his work on stage and screen, he
has been awarded an Obie (True West), and an Emmy (Death of a
Salesman), and been nominated for an Academy Award (Places in
the Heart).

Last season Charles Ross brought his One Man Star Wars show to Club Weisiger.
The sold-out audience demanded his return with a performance based on his
other favorite fantasy series: One Man Lord of the RingsTM. Ross hurtles his way
through the entire Tolkien trilogy recreating the magical world of Middle-earth
and all its enchanting characters. In this inspired performance, he manages to
complete Frodo’s epic journey from the Shire to the fire—armed with nothing
more than a pair of elbow pads and his outrageous imagination. With riveting
stage fights, harrowing rescues, and brilliant vocal sound effects, he captures
every character—Frodo, Sam, Merry, Pippin, Aragorn, Boromir, Gimli, Legolas, the
majestic Gandalf and even the malicious Gollum—in a show that will leave
Weisiger audiences transfixed once again.

Furthering Mali’s rich musical tradition, Fatoumata Diawara presents a joyous
mix of the vibrant and understated, combining songs about love, politics and
empowerment. With arresting melodies soaring over intricate guitar and drum
arrangements inspired by Wassoulou tradition, jazz, and blues, Fatou has created
her own unique contemporary folk sound, with a distinctly African spin to
the concept of the female singer-songwriter. Born in the Ivory Coast and raised
in Mali, Fatou’s life covers a gamut of contemporary African experience: fighting
parental opposition to her artistic ambitions, combatting the cultural prejudice
faced by women throughout Africa, and winning success as an actress in film
and theater. She finally lives her dream in the medium she was always destined
to make her own: music. In addition to her recent, highly acclaimed debut
album “Fatou,” she found time to collaborate on Damon Albarn's Africa

Classical pianist Simone Dinnerstein and singer-songwriter Tift Merritt come from
different musical backgrounds, yet their passion for music and performance makes
them kindred spirits. Night, their unique recording and concert collaboration,
blends classical, folk, and rock genres, exploring common terrain and
uncovering new musical landscapes to create a sound all their own. Hailed as
“the pianists’ pianist of Generation X” by The New Yorker, Simone Dinnerstein has
been praised by Time for her “arresting freshness and subtlety.” The New York-
based pianist rose to prominence after the remarkable success of her self-
financed recording of Bach’sGoldberg Variations. Dinnerstein’s talents are a solid
match for Grammy®-nominated alt-country darling Tift Merritt, who has built a
critically acclaimed body of work comprising sonic short stories and poignant
performances. The Wall Street Journal applauds her “sound that weaves
through country, folk, and rock…in the tradition of Joni Mitchell, James Taylor,
and Leonard Cohen.”

Described as a “quartet with a difference” by the Irish Times, the Dublin Guitar
Quartet is a one-of-a-kind classical guitar ensemble that occupies a unique
space in the wider chamber music world. Their concerts include a mix of new
works and modern classics by internationally acclaimed composers. Since its
formation at the Dublin Conservatory of Music and Drama, the Quartet has
worked to expand the limited repertoire by commissioning new works and
adapting modern masterpieces from outside of the guitar repertoire. They
were recently awarded an Arts Council of Ireland grant for commissions, the first
of which is a new work for electric guitar quartet by New York composer Michael
Gordon. They have been successful in bringing new music to unlikely audiences
as well, playing as guests of ‘rock’ groups such as The Redneck Manifesto (Dublin)
and Final Fantasy (Canada). Audiences can expect an explosive, entertaining,
and completely novel concert experience for the Quartet’s Club Weisiger and
United States tour debut.
