The Sound of Music is a popular American musical. Richard Rodgers wrote the music, Oscar Hammerstein II wrote the lyrics, and Howard Lindsay and Russel Crouse wrote the original book. In 1949, Maria von Trapp published her autobiography, from which this musical took the adaptation.
This summer, the critically acclaimed About…Productions theater company and their Young Theaterworks educational program produce as an original performance built around the Getty exhibition, Picture Worlds: Greek, Maya, and Moche Pottery. Developed in response to the exhibition, the performances will integrate poetry, movement, video projections, and music. Professional video designer Ly Eisenstein will enhance the performance with student-created images, handmade masks, and photos of pottery from the exhibition.
Kaushiki Chakraborty, a classical vocalist and composer, could reproduce Hindustani classical vocal patterns at the age of two. Maestros visiting the ITC Sangeet Research Academy (SRA), where Kaushiki grew up, soon discovered a new game: they would hurl the most complex of patterns at her, using only the "aa" vowel instead of pronouncing the notes, and wait for her to identify the notes and reproduce the patterns. This is something she could do instantly and consistently.
Co-created by Gabriel GARZA and CHAVEZ, Adobe Punk is set in the early 1980s in working-class Bell Gardens where punk music finds life in one of L.A.’s oldest adobe homes. Inspired by the bands X, the Minutemen, and the Bags, a punk trio builds its songbook as they define their artistic identity and find their place in the musical, and early California, landscape of L.A.

Nominated for 10 Tony Awards and winner of six Academy Awards for the iconic Carol Reed film adaptation, Lionel Bart’s adaptation of Charles Dickens’ Oliver Twist has been a household name since its premiere in 1960. Yet Oliver! hasn’t been seen on a New York City stage since its Broadway revival nearly 40 years ago.
The timeless enchantment of a magical fairy tale is reborn with the Rodgers & Hammerstein hallmarks of originality, charm and elegance. Originally presented on television in 1957 starring Julie Andrews, Rodgers & Hammerstein's Cinderella was the most widely viewed program in the history of the medium. Its recreation in 1965 starring Lesley Ann Warren was no less successful in transporting a new generation to the miraculous kingdom of dreams-come-true, and so was a second remake in 1997, which starred Brandy as Cinderella and Whitney Houston as her Fairy Godmother.
Celebrating the space where music and dance meet to form a perfect union of heart pounding excitement and soul-stirring beauty, the Barcelona Flamenco Ballet returns to the ALEX to move us once again.

Pondering its complicated layers, a Latina dives deep into her California ancestral history and how she should embrace it on a personal, political and cultural level. How can she connect to a past that has been nearly lost in time and move forward with a deeper sense of her identity?
Written and directed by Theresa Chavez, and with original video, music, painting, and vintage photography, L.A. Real peels away L.A.’s fantasy past to find a deeper, visceral connection for the 8th generation Latina.
Following this solo performance piece featuring actress Marlene Beltran, selected student monologues written by local youth through the "Art of the Monologue" workshops will be presented. As with the Latina in L.A. Real, these students from L.A.-area public high schools have explored their own self-identity.
