The Magical Music of Harry Potter – Live In Concert
Wed, Nov 5 8pm
Enter the Wizarding World Like Never Before
Step beyond the screen and into the heart of the wizarding world with The Magical Music of Harry Potter – Live in Concert. This unforgettable evening invites audiences to relive the wonder of Hogwarts through the power of music, brought to life by the acclaimed Magical Film Orchestra & Choir. Featuring captivating illusions and a special appearance by a guest star from the Harry Potter films, this is more than a concert—it’s a journey.
A Symphony of Sorcery and Storytelling
Feel the enchantment as the most iconic scores of the series unfold before your eyes, including the work of legendary composers John Williams, Patrick Doyle, Nicholas Hooper, and Alexandre Desplat. Selections from Harry Potter and the Cursed Child add a fresh layer of magic to this breathtaking performance.
More Than Music: A Night to Remember
Guided by a beloved actor from the films, the evening blends music with storytelling. Hear behind-the-scenes moments, personal memories, and reflections on the themes of friendship, bravery, and love that lie at the heart of the Harry Potter universe.
THRILLER | SUSPENSE | TRUE STORY
A 25-year-old former Air Force linguist named Reality Winner is surprised at her home by the FBI, interrogated, and then charged with leaking evidence of Russian interference in U.S elections. Reality was given a record breaking sentence and was released from prison to a half-way house on June 2, 2021 for good behavior.
The FBI transcript of her interrogation is the heart of Is This a Room, conceived as a play and directed by Obie Award-winner Tina Satter, in which an extraordinary human drama unfolds between the complex and witty Reality, and the agents who question her. As Reality’s autonomy shrinks before her eyes, a simmering real-life thriller emerges, asking what it is to have honor in this American moment, and how the personal can reverberate globally.
Performances of Is This a Room will be held on the days and times listed below. The lobby and concessions area will open one hour prior to showtime. Concessions may be taken into the theatre during the performance.
November 5 – November 23
Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays at 7:30pm

Paperhand Puppet Project presents The Gift

Sunday, Nov 9 • 3 pm
Stories move on the water. The water moves in all things. Life moves in dynamic patterns that weave like currents and rich tapestries that shape who we are. We may sometimes fall short of such states of grace. We readily receive the gifts the world provides with no explicit expectations in return. Yet reciprocity could very well be our best pathway to survival. We can decide to give back, and now is the time. We were built for this. Made for it.
We humbly request the gift of your presence as we seek this balance. Let the Grandmothers tell you a story that you didn’t know you needed. Let the water protectors and heroines of justice sing you a song of resilience. Let us share a moment of connection, wonder and gratitude. Let us create this, our future, together — through art!
Join us in honoring the rare gift that is life on Earth as we celebrate Paperhand’s 25th year! Come and experience the magic of giant puppets, masks, stilts, painted cardboard and cloth, illuminated puppets and shadows all set to original live music in a performance for all ages. See you at the show!
