SUMMARY:Online: The Lion and Pirate Open Mic
DESCRIPTION:The Lion and the Pirate open mic is Zooming ahead!\nSign up to perform \nSign up to attend \nWhile we have sorely missed having our event in our amazing original host venue Malvern Books\, we are glad to continue our open mic in a virtual space. In the meantime\, you can support Malvern Books by purchasing a selection of their books online through BookShop at https://bookshop.org/shop/malvernbooks \nOur May open mic is moving online\, via Zoom. We will start with featured performer Nancy Scott and surprise guests. Then it will be your time to shine. As always\, we’re open to work in any genre: music\, spoken word\, improv\, skits\, storytelling\, dance\, poems or prose… Anything you can perform! \nWhen: 1 to 2:30 PM\, Sunday\, May 3\nWhere: Online via Zoom.\nNote: This event will be Live Captioned. \nFor this open mic\, we’re especially interested in work that’s keeping you healthy and grounded as we physically distance ourselves. Have you written a poem or song (or found one) that’s helped get you through? Been practicing a dance routine that lets you move through the days with a little more joy? We invite you to share it with the community from your home stage! \nIf you’re a little shy\, this could be your chance to take the first step. If you turn your video off\, or perform off-screen\, or put your pet in front of the camera. \nOr you can tune in just to connect with your community and give us those “clap” reacts. The show will be shorter than usual\, so we will limit the number of sign up slots. \nSign up is open from today through Noon on Saturday\, May 2. \nSign up to perform here. \nSign up to attend. \nFor more information\, email Boye at boye@artsparktx.org

SUMMARY:Audio Described Performance: A Bronx Tale
DESCRIPTION:A Bronx Tale\nMay 7\, 2020 @ 8pm \n“Three years ago\, Academy Award nominee Chazz Palminteri teamed up with Academy Award® winner Robert De Niro\, Tony® Award winner Jerry Zaks and Tony® Award nominee Sergio Trujillo to create this streetwise musical-based on Palminteri’s true life story. \nA BRONX TALE\, Broadway’s hit crowd-pleaser\, takes you to the stoops of the Bronx in the 1960s\, where a young man is caught between the father he loves and the mob boss he’d love to be. \nBursting with high-energy dance numbers and original doo-wop tunes from Academy Award® and Tony® Award-winner Alan Menken (Beauty and the Beast) and Tony® Award-nominee Glenn Slater (Love Never Dies)\, A BRONX TALE is an unforgettable story of loyalty and family.” \nAccessibility Information: https://texasperformingarts.org/visit/accessibility \nEvent and Parking Information:\nhttps://texasperformingarts.org/season/a-bronx-tale-broadway-austin-2020 \nTicket Office:\nemail: tickets@texasperformingarts.org or call: 512.471.1444\nTuesday–Friday: 10 am–5 pm
