Segal award at Lincoln Center, the Mozart and Plácido Domingo awards at the 2015 Francisco Viñas International Competition, first prize at the 2014 Gerda Lissner and Licia Albanese-Puccini Foundation competitions, and the 2013 Operalia Don Plácido Domingo Sr. Zarzuela prize.

Priscilla Presley has long been called an icon of the entertainment world—and in this intimate evening, she finally tells her own story. As the only woman to have married the King of Rock and Roll, Priscilla shares what it was truly like to love, live with, and lose Elvis Presley.
The evening weaves together personal film clips, private home movies, and footage from their life together—at home, on vacation, and with their only child, Lisa Marie—alongside clips from Priscilla's own career in film and television, including five seasons on the famed series Dallas. She speaks candidly about Elvis as a husband and a father, the challenge of being married to the world's greatest rock and roll star, and how she coped with the relentless attention brought on by fame. The night closes with an opportunity for the audience to ask Priscilla their own questions, as she continues her mission to share her story and preserve the legacy of one of the most famous performers the world has ever known.

From French choreographer Hervé Koubi, Sol Invictus is a powerful exploration of luminosity and the bonds that unite us. Performed by Compagnie Hervé Koubi, an ensemble celebrated for its breathtaking virtuosity and refined, expressive clarity, Sol Invictus is a visually stunning and deeply human work that illuminates the invisible threads connecting us to one another. Named after the “invincible sun” deity, the work upholds love as the guarantor of peace, that despite fracture, communion emerges as humanity’s saving grace. The music score includes a composition by Swedish composer Mikael Karlsson, with excerpts by Steve Reich and digital composer Maxime Bodson. “I want to talk about light, solidarity, and those bonds that unite us,” says Koubi. “Here, the sun and the dance will emerge victorious.”

Aquila Theatre brings a bold and compelling new adaptation of Robert Louis Stevenson’s timeless tale The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. Written in 1885 and inspired by a strange and feverish dream, Stevenson created this Gothic horror to expose the treacherous and terrifying nature of a fractured self. Unable to quell his darkest desires, Dr. Henry Jekyll becomes convinced he can separate the good and evil within. Using science, he attempts to sever his two identities, unleashing a terrifying double life through the creation of Edward Hyde. What begins as a daring experiment spirals into a desperate struggle between the two identities as each battles for control and survival. Which side will win? With Aquila’s signature style—its bold physicality, top-notch actors, and inventive staging—this gripping theatrical adaptation dives deep into the human psyche, asking timeless and urgent questions about morality, repression, and the battles born out of darkness.
