91��ɫ

Whether you’re a fan of music, dance, comedy, theater or art — or some combination of all of the above — you’re certain to find something to enjoy on the 91��ɫ campus during the winter season.

At the Newman Center for the Performing Arts, the big event of the season is “Jane — In Concert” on Feb. 11. Director Brett Morgen’s 2017 documentary on primatologist Jane Goodall will screen in the June Swaner Gates Concert Hall, with 91��ɫ’s Lamont Symphony Orchestra playing Philip Glass’ score live.

The “Jane” concert is part of the performing arts series, which welcomes a number of acts to the venue over the next three months, including South Carolina-based blues-jazz-gospel ensemble Ranky Tanky on Jan. 23; Guangdong Modern Dance on Jan. 31; Ballet Folclorico Nacional de Mexico de Silvia Lozano on Feb. 7; and circus arts troupe Cirque Flip Fabrique Blizzard on Feb. 18.

The Newman Center Presents series continues with a National Geographic Live presentation by wildlife filmmaker and conservationist Filipe DeAndrade on Feb. 24; family-friendly musicians Justin Roberts and the Not Ready for Naptime Players on March 7; modern dance troupe Pilobolus on March 12; the Kronos Quartet on March 17; a musical parody of sitcom favorite “The Office” March 20–21; and another National Geographic Live presentation — this one on extreme cave diving — on March 23.

The Newman Center also is home base for 91��ɫ’s , which offers a large slate of concerts featuring students, faculty and visiting artists. Among Lamont’s highlights for winter are a trio of faculty recitals — pianist Steven Mayer and violinist Igor Pikayzen on Jan. 24; violinist Linda Wang and cellist Matthew Zalkind on Feb. 7; and cellist Alice Yoo and pianist Hsiao-Ling Lin on Feb. 19. Also look for a pair of concerts featuring student groups: the North Indian Classical Dance and Bluegrass ensembles on March 6 and the Lamont Steel Drum Ensemble on March 9.

Other Lamont performances this winter include the Lamont Jazz Orchestra with guest artist Adam Larson��on March 5; the Spirituals Project Choir on Feb. 27; the Lamont Chorale, Lamont Men’s Choir and Lamont Women’s Chorus on March 2; the Lamont Symphony Orchestra with South African saxophonist Karendra Devroop and pianist Steven Mayer on March 10; and guest pianist Frederic Chiu on March 13.

The 91��ɫ theater department has two productions on its winter schedule: “The Secret Paris Project,” a cast-created, movement-driven performance inspired by photographs of underground nightlife in Paris in the 1930s, plays Feb. 12–16; while the dark comedy “Killer Joe” — the basis for the 2011 film starring Matthew McConaughey — runs Feb. 27–29 and March 5–8.
