(A)loft Modulation

presented by the american vicarious

A red graphic with "(A)loft Modulation" in faded blocky text


September 26 - October 26, 2019

Written by Jaymes Jorsling
Directed by Christopher McElroen


It’s the last explosive heyday of jazz and the inhabitants of a seedy Manhattan loft jam night after night, while a compulsive photographer documents everything with round-the-clock reel-to-reel recordings and photographs. 


(A)loft Modulation traces the turbulent, roiling obsessions of this group of musicians - a who’s who of jazz from 1957 to 1965 - and their pursuit of purpose, while social chaos seeks to overthrow American culture. It’s angst vs. contentment, selfishness vs. benevolence, artist vs. layman – a struggle that plays out through the fractured lens of unlabeled reel-to-reel tapes which are stumbled upon 60-years after they were recorded.

Featuring a live jazz band that improvises nightly, (A)loft Modulation harnesses the power of these rare and precious sound and video recordings, taking the audience on a thrilling and emotional tour of this watershed moment in jazz history.

Lear: That Old Man I Used To Know

presented by Smith Street Stage

An illustration of a child wearing a mask sitting alone in a large attic.

September 5 - September 22, 2019

Directed & Adapted by Beth Ann Hopkins
Musical Composition & Direction by Elliot Roth


A young girl has run away to her Grandmother's attic, a space for forgotten objects covered with drop cloths and dusty time. When searching through a stack of old books, she opens one up to reveal that the words literally come alive off the pages as characters and creatures emerge around her and begin to tell her the story of King Lear. A classic story, retold through the eyes of a child.
