Branford Marsalis to Play the Touhill
|
|
What: After releasing the “dynamic” and “passionate” (Jazz Times) Braggtown in 2006, the multiple Grammy-nominated Branford Marsalis Quartet toured worldwide for two years before returning to the recording studio.

Marsalis said he chose the title, which is German for metamorphoses, to emphasize the evolution of both his quartet and each individual member. Metamorphosen is another milestone from an ensemble that continues to set the pace regarding jazz creativity.

What: In this heart-racing and audacious three-actor, 90-minute adaptation, two elderly women are found murdered and a detective must rely on the information provided by their penniless young neighbor to solve the crime. A thrilling journey into the tortured criminal mind of Raskolnikov, one of literature’s most fascinating figures, and his search for redemption, this new vision of Dostoevsky’s masterpiece is stark, bracing and stunningly theatrical.

The Idiotarod
|
|
What: The Idiotarod pays homage to the Alaskan tradition of the Iditarod in which dogs pull a sled and musher across the Iditarod Trail. Our event is similar, except replace the dogs with people and the sled with a shopping cart, put it in downtown St. Louis, and add a heavy dose of weirdness. Teams of five people will venture throughout downtown hitting checkpoints and completing challenges to continue and win prizes. Teams will have a theme that is reflective of their cart and costumes. The date is set for March 5th & 6th, in admiration of the Alaskan Iditarod, and the race will go on regardless of rain, sleet, snow, ice, wind, or hail. One of the challenges includes collecting food for a local charity-Operation Food Search. March 5th is the corporate Idiotarod and March 6th is the open Idiotarod. Lumiere Place will be hosting the award ceremony and after-party.
