Join the New York Neo-Futurists for an off-the-wall theater experience at PEM! Watch this experimental ensemble attempt to perform 30 short plays in one hour with The Infinite Wrench.
Each play offers something different — something funny, profound, elegant, disgusting, topical, irrelevant, terrifying or musical. All are truthful and tackle the here-and-now, inspired by the lived experiences of the performers. The Infinite Wrench is the Neo-Futurists’ ongoing and ever-changing attempt to shift the conventions of live performance and speak to audiences, including people who feel “unreached or unmoved” by traditional theater.
The New York Neo-Futurists are a radically dynamic ensemble of multidisciplinary artists who write and perform original work rooted in the truth of their own lived experiences. They fuse elements of poetry, game and performance art to create ever-changing theatre and other artistic experiments to respond to the world around us.
PEM Presents seeks to surprise and delight audiences with world-class artistry in music, theater, dance, film and more.

Within the past generation, journalism has been upended by the Internet and social media — and it’s still undergoing extraordinary transformation. Join author Julia Cooke for a discussion about Starry and Restless: Three Women Who Changed Work, Writing, and the World, a triple-biography that illuminates an earlier moment of journalistic transformation.
Martha Gellhorn, Emily “Mickey” Hahn and Rebecca West were three trailblazing reporters who transformed journalism while reinventing the possibilities for women of their times. In Starry and Restless, Cooke takes readers on these writers’ adventures and challenges throughout the 1930s, ‘40s and ‘50s, from Omaha Beach on D-Day to Japanese-occupied Shanghai through Cuba, the Congo and the Nuremberg Trials.
In their lifetimes, these three writers were “the targets of near-continuous criticism, scrutiny, gossip, and, occasionally, praise.” Now, their legacies are illuminated by their own writing and letters in this extraordinary, globe-trotting triple portrait.
PEM Curator Trevor Smith will moderate a discussion with the author.<a href="https://eventvesta.com/events/145334/t/tickets" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">View Tickets &amp; More Info</a>

Join us for a one-hour guided gallery tour in Spanish of Edmonia Lewis: Said In Stone. Get insight into the works on display and engage in conversation with guide Jenny Beauchamp-Ankney.
Come back on select Sundays for a new gallery to explore.
About the exhibition:
Born in Greenbush, New York in 1844, Lewis became the first sculptor of Black and Indigenous (Mississauga) descent to achieve international recognition. Beginning her career in Boston in 1863, she traveled to Rome in 1866 to join the leading American sculptors of her generation, breaking international, racial and gender barriers. Her vivid, naturalistic stone sculptures feature abolitionists and social reformers, engage with Indigenous identity, and give new life to religious and mythological figures.
Discover the first museum exhibition of its kind to gather the full range of Lewis’s art alongside works by her contemporaries and the generations of artists she influenced. Together these objects foreground Lewis’s life and work within her worlds and reveal her true mastery of marble.

Acompáñanos durante una hora para realizar una visita guiada en español de Edmonia Lewis: Dicho en piedra. Aprende más sobre las obras expuestas y charla con la guía Jenny Beauchamp-Ankney. Vuelve a visitarnos los domingos seleccionados para explorar una nueva galería.
 Acerca de la exposición:
Nacida en Greenbush, Nueva York, en 1844, Lewis se convirtió en la primera escultora de ascendencia negra e indígena (mississauga) en lograr reconocimiento internacional. Inició su carrera en Boston en 1863 y, tres años más tarde, viajó a Roma para unirse a los escultores estadounidenses más destacados de su generación, derribando así barreras internacionales, raciales y de género. De carácter vívido y naturalista, sus esculturas en piedra representan a abolicionistas y reformistas sociales, abordan la identidad indígena y vuelven a dar vida a figuras religiosas y mitológicas.
Descubre la primera exposición museística de su tipo en reunir todo el espectro de la producción artística de Lewis con obras de sus contemporáneos y de las generaciones de artistas a quienes influyó. En conjunto, estos objetos destacan la vida y obra de Lewis dentro de su contexto y revelan su verdadera habilidad para trabajar el mármol.<a href="https://eventvesta.com/events/147572/t/tickets" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">View Tickets &amp; More Info</a>

Appearing at first-tier venues across New England and beyond, this talented band has earned the admiration and affection of critics and fans alike.
Based in Boston, No Static is&nbsp;one of the top Steely Dan tribute bands in the country. These dedicated musicians specialize in expertly performing the music of Steely Dan, re-creating that amazing bluesy jazz-rock sound invented by Donald Fagen and Walter Becker. As Dan fans know, this is no small feat. The music is complex, spanning genres, requiring precise attention to musical detail, with subtle grooves, sophisticated vocal harmonies, iconic solos, and time and key changes popping up when least expected. Steely Dan is not an easy band to pay tribute to.
No Static has been nailing it for over 20 years now and their sold-out shows tell the tale. With passion and warmth they cover the breadth of Steely Dan’s great catalog, attracting some of Boston’s finest musicians, and working with guest performers including Steely Dan band members Walt Weiskopf (saxophonist) and Jon Herington (Music Director/guitarist).

Dueling Pianos is back. Bring your friends and have a ball. Dueling Pianos is a massive "to the top of your lungs" sing along with all your friends! Two grand pianos are center-stage with a team of outrageously talented pianists that seem to know every song ever written.
Each show is different because it's all request. And you or your friends might get called up onstage for a bit of good humored fun and some unforgettable you-tube moments. These shows are request oriented, interactive sing-a-longs wherein two piano players sit across from each other and trade songs. The dueling piano audience is used for the dueling aspect of the show. Audience members are pitted one-side-against-the-other. Examples of rivalries include country vs. rock, men against women, etc.
Dueling piano shows often take unexpected turns, like involving wait staff members, changing song lyrics or roasting popular audience members. There aren't many boundaries. It's one big sing-along party, swaying to the music and bellowing-out familiar lyrics. You're not just being entertained by the piano players - you are part of the show!
"Think YOU won't sing along? Just TRY not too.... I dare ya!"

Lez Zeppelin-All Girls. All Zeppelin.
Lez Zeppelin is a phenomenon. Since their formation in 2004, the group has stunned audiences all over the world with the musicianship, passion and gender-bending audacity they bring to the music of Led Zeppelin. Unlike&nbsp;&nbsp;the typical “tribute band”&nbsp;Lez&nbsp;Zeppelin does not seek to imitate. Rather, they are a&nbsp;she-incarnation&nbsp;of the original. With swagger, intensity and virtuosity, these four women cover the entire canon, performing hits, deep tracks, epic compositions and acoustic numbers with utmost authenticity, as if they’d written the music themselves. Jimmy Page described it best after attending a Lez Zeppelin show in London:&nbsp;“They played the Led Zeppelin music with an extraordinary sensuality and an energy and passion that highlighted their superb musicianship.”

Larcom Theatre

The Police Academy tribute band is one of the few younger acts in the tribute scene, bringing the energy, style, and sound of Sting and The Police at the height of their career. With authentic wardrobe, strong musicianship, and undeniable enthusiasm, they capture everything from the raw, stripped-down punk edge of The Police’s early records to the polished, synth-driven pop of their later hits.
Bandmates Joshua Jones, Jon McCracken, and Christian Hernandez share the same rock and jazz influence that shaped Sting, Stewart Copeland, and Andy Summers, giving their performance a standout authenticity. With experience in acclaimed tribute acts including Jumping Jack Flash, Wild Child, and The Fab Four, they bring world-class talent, humor, and showmanship to every show.
From favorites like “Message in a Bottle” and “Every Breath You Take” to deeper cuts like “Murder by Numbers” and “When the World is Running Down,” The Police Academy Tribute delivers an exciting, authentic tribute to one of the most iconic bands of the 1980s.
