Grace Episcopal Church

Ever since the 1922 world premiere in Paris, audiences have been absolutely dazzled—literally blown away—by Maurice Ravel’s orchestration of Modest Mussorgsky’s piano composition&nbsp;Pictures at an Exhibition. Chances are you've heard parts of this famous work—but have you really listened to them?
On Saturday, November 7th, Maestro George Marriner Maull (Artistic Director of The Discovery Orchestra) and special guest pianist Craig Ketter will lead the audience through an interactive—and at times amusing—experience of the magical effect achieved when a piano work is arranged for&nbsp;full symphony orchestra.&nbsp;Several movements will be referenced, but in particular the final movement—"The Great Gate of Kiev"—will be the subject of this hour of musical discovery.
 A Listening Guide and other visual enhancements will aid the journey. And in addition, full-sound film footage from a live performance by the Orchestra of the Mariinsky Theater under Maestro Valery Gergiev will also be part of the presentation.
Event Schedule: 6:30pm: Reception 7:30pm: Program 8:30pm: Dessert
Ticket Information (click More info here link above to purchase): Adults (ages 23-64):&nbsp;$20 Seniors (ages 65+):&nbsp;$15 Students (ages 10-22):&nbsp;$5

Morristown High School

Dracula, as originally written by 19th-century novelist Bram Stoker, is a Gothic tale of vampirism about an undead Transylvanian count who travels to Victorian England to prey upon the unsuspecting Mina Harker and her best friend Lucy Westenra only to be confronted by the Dutch vampire hunter Abraham Van Helsing.

Kate Hamill’s Dracula,which will appear on the Morristown High School stage November 20–22, is a 2022 reimagining of this classic tale, by award-winning playwright Kate Hamill, in which the vampirism of Count Dracula (Elliot Eck) serves as a metaphor for chauvinism, and Doctor Van Helsing (Olivia Montague) is a stake-slinging American who arrives in London to shake up the Victorian gender hierarchy and drive a stake through the heart of sexism.

Hamill has put a postmodern twist on the iconic horror tale about the seductive, immortal nobleman who draws life from the women upon whom he prays. “Finally, the women of the play, Mina [Tara Gumpper] and Lucy [Caroline Higgins], have agency in the story,” says MHS faculty director George LaVigne, adding that Hamill’s Dr. Van Helsing is “a woman who suffers no fools, bullies, or vampires.” Per LaVigne, “the play is threaded with themes of sisterhood, challenging cultural tropes, and deconstructing gender roles.” Full of frights, fights, feminism, and buckets of blood, Kate Hamill’s Dracula is funny, scary, gory, and a whole lot of fun.

Warning: MHS’s production of Kate Hamill’s Dracula contains mature themes, scenes of horror and violence, and a healthy helping of blood.
