Saturday, February 12 at 2 PM
Saturday, February 12 at 8 PM
Sunday, February 13 at 2 PM
Hurtling from a poolroom in Scotland to an armored truck in Iraq, this blistering,
complex and urgent theater work is based on inter views with former soldiers who
ser ved in Iraq. Viewed through the eyes of those on the ground, Black Watch reveals
what it means to be part of the legendar y Scottish regiment, what it means to be part
of the war on terror and what it means to make the journey home again. Exploring the
male psyche and the morality of war with tremendous energy, wit and compassion,
Black Watch addresses one of the thorniest issues of our time.

Please note: Black Watch contains strong language, loud explosions and strobe lighting.

The Andersen Project – Ex Machina
Thursday, March 17 at 7:30 PM
Friday, March 18 at 8 PM
Directed by Robert Lepage | Starring Yves Jacques
Filled to the brim with his trademark rapid-fire humor and visual
and technological brilliance, this spellbinding masterpiece by
Canadian theater visionary Robert Lepage explores sexual
identity, unfulfilled fantasies and the thirst for fame. Freely
inspired by Hans Christian Andersen’s timeless fables and
the anecdotes drawn from his life and writings, this deeply
human one-man performance weaves the compelling story
of a Québécois songwriter in Paris whose travels and chance
encounters take him on a voyage of self-discovery and
understanding.
The Andersen Project contains content that is intended for
mature audiences only.

Woyzeck on the Highveld –
Handspring Puppet Company
Friday April 1 at 8 PM
Saturday April 2 at 8 PM
Based on the play by Georg Büchner
Directed by William Kentridge
Designed by Adrian Kohler & William Kentridge
Against an arresting backdrop of animated projections,
spectacular life-size puppets play out Georg Büchner’s
famed tale of jealousy and murder in Handspring’s
heart-stopping South African multi-media fantasy. In this
artful adaptation, Woyzeck – a central text in 20th-century
theater – weaves a magical spell filled with humor and pathos.
Collaborating with William Kentridge, one of the world’s most
renowned artists and filmmakers, the Cape Town-based
Handspring Puppet Company first appeared in Chapel
Hill in 2005 with Tall Horse, and return to Memorial Hall
on the heels of their London smash hit War Horse.

Blues at the Crossroads:
The Robert Johnson
Centennial Concerts
Wednesday, February 16 at 7:30 PM
Welcome to the blues. With David “Honeyboy” Edwards on
board, Blues at the Crossroads connects straight back to the
Robert Johnson legend – Edwards was playing with him the
night he died. The evening picks up the thread of Johnson’s
Mississippi legacy at the junction of US Highways 61 & 49 –
the very crossroads where, as folklore would have it, Robert
Johnson’s burning desire pushed him to make his deal with the
devil, giving up his soul to write the most haunting blues the
world had ever heard. Featuring David “Honeyboy” Edwards,
Big Head Todd & The Monsters, Hubert Sumlin, and Cedric
Burnside & Lightnin’ Malcolm.
“We all owed our existence
[to Robert Johnson] in some way.”

Eddie Palmieri Latin Jazz
Friday, February 18 at 8 PM
The prophet of Latin jazz, nine-time Grammy Award winner
Eddie Palmieri blazes his own distinctive musical path around
the world. A powerhouse innovator, this pianist, bandleader,
composer, arranger, producer and pioneer of contemporary
salsa revolutionized Latin music with his infectious sound.
With 36 albums to his name and more than 50 years as a
bandleader, his restless, instinctive playing is rooted in Cuban
music and influenced by jazz luminaries such as Art Tatum,
Bobby Timmons, Bill Evans, Horace Silver, Bud Powell and
McCoy Tyner.
This performance is part of the 34th annual Carolina
Jazz Festival.

Yasmin Levy
Saturday, February 26 at 8 PM
Named “the next world music superstar” by London’s
The Guardian, this bewitching, goosebump-inducing Israeli
interprets the most haunting songs of her Judeo-Spanish
heritage. One of the finest singers of the Middle East,
Yasmin Levy draws on a bottomless reserve of emotional
depth and beauty, singing in Spanish and the ancient Ladino
language of Sephardic Jews as she blends her own mixture
of flamenco, Middle Eastern, Mediterranean and Sephardic
Jewish traditions. With appearances at the international
festivals WOMEX (World Music Expo) and WOMAD (World
of Music, Arts and Dance), she is establishing herself
as one of the great divas of world music.
This performance takes place in our Loading Dock configuration,
with audiences and artists sharing the Memorial Hall stage.
Seating for this performance is limited, and directions will be
distributed with ticket purchases.

Phil Kline’s John the Revelator
with Lionheart and ETHEL
Tuesday, March 22 at 7:30 PM
From boombox symphonies to chamber music and song
cycles, Phil Kline’s eclectic work has been praised for
its subversive subtext, wry humor, originality, and sheer
allure. Inspired by the great Son House version of Blind
Willie Johnson’s gospel-blues song, John the Revelator
is an evening-length choral Mass for renowned early
music vocal group Lionheart with the idiosyncratic string
quartet Ethel. Suggesting redemption in a blighted
world, Kline chooses texts by Samuel Beckett and David
Shapiro along with passages from the Old Testament,
bookending the Mass with treatments of two early
American shape-note hymns from The Sacred Harp –
vestiges of an unforgettable and mysterious beauty.
This performance takes place in our Loading Dock configuration,
with audiences and artists sharing the Memorial Hall stage.
