Trinity United Methodist Church

The Thirteen begins an exploration of Monteverdi's secular music after their comprehensive review of his sacred works over 
five programs and two recordings, hailed as “shimmering in loveliness”&nbsp; by MusicWeb International. The performance will start with Monteverdi’s madrigal form, pairing it with
 near-contemporary works of the Renaissance-Baroque transition by Carlo 
Gesualdo and Barbara Strozzi. They will present these works in conversation 
with secular song by contemporary composers, including Eric Whitacre, 
Ildebrando Pizzetti, Morton Lauridsen, and more.Promo Code - Partner15 - Save 15%&nbsp;

Carlyle House Historic Park

In honor of National Preservation Month, join Carlyle House on a tour of “Lost Alexandria.” Urban renewal projects across the country took place starting in the 1950s were government and private initiatives aimed at addressing urban decay, upgrading infrastructure and revitalizing city neighborhoods. In the 1960s, the Gadsby Commercial Urban Renewal Project changed and demolished portions of multiple blocks including the 300-500 block of King Street.&nbsp;
During May’s Preservation Tours, tour guides will lead groups through the south side of the 300-500 blocks of King Street and parts of the 100 blocks of N. Fairfax, N. Royal, &amp; N. Pitt Streets to discuss what had been here, why they were destroyed, and how that impacted Alexandria. In September we will host the north side of the 300-500 blocks of King Street and parts of the 100 blocks of S. Fairfax, S. Royal, &amp; S. Pitt Streets. It is not required to attend the Spring tour to understand the Fall tour and vice versa.&nbsp;

Tours begin at Carlyle House, 121 N. Fairfax Street. This tour includes walking over many city blocks. South side tours will take place on three Saturdays in May all at 10am and the north side will take place on three Saturdays in September . Walking shoes required, bottled water suggested. Held rain or shine. Tickets are required for all tours.&nbsp;

This
 isn’t just an Oddball Adventure, it’s an absolutely berserk, 
preposterous, what-lunatic-thought-of-this production. When Air Force 
One is shot down on the way to a meeting of global leaders, the 
president, played by Samuel L. Jackson, lands in an escape pod in the 
Finnish wilderness. There he encounters a lone 13-year-old boy hunting 
deer with bow and arrow. The terrorists who destroyed the plane are 
approaching, and the boy and president must team up to evade them. The 
plot is Grand High Lunacy, with stunts that rival anything in the Die Hard or Indiana Jones
 franchises, but it’s engagingly directed and acted with weird fun 
surprises and plot twists galore. A good movie? No. A fascinating 
variation on so-bad-it’s-ridiculously-entertaining? Absolutely!
■ Title — Big Game 
■ Director — Jalmari Helander 
■ Cast — Samuel L. Jackson, Onni Tommila, Ray Stevenson

 Arc presents a powerful afternoon of classical music showcasing 
exceptional pre-college and collegiate musicians of color from over 80 
U.S. cities. This inspiring concert highlights the next generation of 
talent through dynamic works by composers like Tchaikovsky, Florence 
Price, Jessie Montgomery, and more.&nbsp;
This concert comes almost 
exactly one year to the date (May 4, 2025) when Equity Arc’s Wind 
Symphony was supposed to perform alongside the U.S. Marine Band “The 
President’s Own”(USMB), but was cancelled due to President Trump’s 
executive order entitled “Ending Radical and Wasteful DEI Programs and 
Preferencing.” The story got national attention and was featured on <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E48GgDX2NCA" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">CBS's 60 Minutes with Scott Peley</a>&nbsp;when,
 in the wake of the cancellation, Equity Arc contacted retired members 
of the premier military and military academy bands to recreate both the 
mentoring and performing experiences&nbsp;in Washington, DC previously 
scheduled for the students.&nbsp;That concert was closed to the public, but 
this one is wide-open with subsidized tickets at only $7 when you 
purchase at the door! Join us!

Little Shop of Horrors follows nerdy florist Seymour Krelborn, who finds fame and fortune after discovering a mysterious, alien plant he names "Audrey II". The R&amp;B-singing, man-eating plant is very demanding, forcing Seymour to do his bidding.
Little Shop of Horrors centers on themes of fatal ambition, greed, and the high cost of success. It explores the dangers of giving in to temptation, the exploitation of the poor, and the destruction caused by unbridled desire.
The musical features a mix of dark comedy, rock-and-roll, and doo-wop music, exploring themes of greed and sacrifice. Performed by 46 Alexandria youth, this promises to be one of the most dynamic and entertaining local production you will see this year.
