25 years after his arrival in New York, the&nbsp;GRAMMY-winning and Latin GRAMMY-nominated&nbsp;drummer, composer, and&nbsp;MacArthur Fellow&nbsp;Dafnis&nbsp;Prieto&nbsp;has utterly shifted the sonic landscape of the jazz and creative music scene. Since his 1999 arrival in New York, he has also worked in bands led by Michel Camilo, Chucho and Bebo Valdés, Henry Threadgill, Steve Coleman, Eddie Palmieri, Chico and Arturo O’Farrill, Dave Samuels and the Caribbean Jazz Project, Jane Bunnett, D.D. Jackson, Edward Simon, Roy Hargrove, Don Byron, and Andrew Hill, among others.
With&nbsp;Prieto’s appearance on the NYC jazz scene likened to “an asteroid hitting the city” (The New York Times), and a reputation that rightfully lauds him as “one of the most multidimensional artists working today” (JazzTimes), the Cuban drummer strikes once again with his 10th album,&nbsp;3 Sides of the Coin. This album marks the studio return of&nbsp;Prieto’s acclaimed&nbsp;Sí o Sí&nbsp;(“Yes or Yes”)&nbsp;Quartet, a rightfully jubilant cohort brought together to commemorate both the bandleader’s quarter century in the United States and his 50th birthday.

Award-winning vocalist, composer and music educator, G. Thomas Allen (affectionately called “Sir Thomas Allen”) brings a unique approach to the genre with his soul-infused phrases, paired with improvisation from modern-day stylizing to straight-ahead, classic jazz.&nbsp;His four-octave range and warm timbre are second-to-none and often compared to the likes of the iconic Philip Bailey.&nbsp;
Thomas’ work spans multi-genres, as a former Principal Artist of Los Angeles Opera and lead singer on GRAMMY-nominated album “Choirmaster” (Motown Gospel 2020).&nbsp;He has worked with the late David Baker, jazz educator and conductor of the Smithsonian Jazz Masterworks Orchestra, guest soloist with the Black Pearl Chamber Ensemble, Royal Melbourne Philharmonic, and former member of Soulful Symphony.&nbsp;Other noted collaborations: Marquis Hill, Pharez Whitted, and the Jason Max Ferdinand Singers. He has appeared on National Public Radio (NPR) and Cable Network News (CNN), and performed at some of the top concert halls in America, including The Kennedy Center, NJPAC, and Carnegie Hall.&nbsp;

​FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
​What Is an Improvised Musical?
​An
 improvised musical is just like a regular musical, but every song, 
scene, and character is made up right there on stage. When you come to 
one of our shows, you’ll see performers create full songs and tell a 
story—all without a script. We start with a single word from the 
audience and then dive right into making it all up, including improvised
 songs that fit the scene. Each musical is one-of-a-kind, so you’ll 
never see the same show twice.
​What Will I See at a Show?
​At
 our shows, you’ll watch as we build an improvised musical from scratch.
 We take one word from the audience to get started, and then we make up 
everything—characters, conflicts, resolutions, and, of course, 
improvised songs. The story might have heroes, villains, friendships, 
and surprises, and it all unfolds right before your eyes. The songs are 
completely original and made up, and they bring the whole musical to 
life!
​Is It Really Improvised?
​Yes! It’s
 all completely improvised. Nothing is planned ahead of time. Every 
line, every scene, and every song is made up on the spot. We love the 
challenge of making it all work together, and the audience’s suggestion 
helps guide us. Because it’s all created through improv, each musical 
show is unique, with improvised songs you’ll only hear once. It’s all 
about creativity, teamwork, and embracing the unexpected.
​
​ABOUT BALTIMORE MUSICAL IMPROV
​At
 Baltimore Musical Improv, we create improvised songs and musicals 
filled with improvised songs that come to life on the spot. Each show 
and workshop is different because everything is made up on the fly. We 
start with a word from the audience, and from there, our team jump into 
creating a whole new story, with brand-new characters and scenes. It’s a
 musical adventure that’s completely unscripted!
​We’re a
 nonprofit group supported by Fractured Atlas, and our mission is to 
bring the joy of improvised musicals to the Baltimore community. We 
believe anyone can join in and be part of this unique, creative 
experience—no singing or acting skills required to start!

Scene to Song: Musical Comedy Show & Jam at Highwire Improv

Formed in Atlanta by the female trio of Tabitha Duncan, Athena Cage and LaVonn Battle, Kut Klose&nbsp;was a trio of gifted vocalists with tremendous promise, shaped and supported by Keith Sweat, whose music continues to define sultry '90s R&amp;B. Kut Klose specialize in a sassy brand of urban R&amp;B pop, primarily mounted on their smooth harmonies. Their debut album, Surrender, was the second to be released on Keith Sweat’s Keia Records label (the first being Silk’s platinum-selling debut), and merged pop sensibilities and bedroom soul with hip-hop beats. Comprising ballads such as “I Like” and “Giving You My Love” alongside the New Jill Swing of “Don’t Change,” the opening single was “Get Up On It,” a duet with Sweat himself.&nbsp;
Keystone Kards are not applicable for this show.
