SUMMARY:St. Michael's Jazz Fest

The festival is even offering a taste of the music of western Mexico with a local mariachi school. All made possible through the many partners and volunteers dedicated to building community through music. \nVisit stmichaelsjazzfest.org for more! \nThe Mission \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSt. Michaels Jazz Fest is dedicated to \nCreating Community Through Music \nWe do this by: \n• Amplifying America’s most distinct and original art form: JAZZ \n• Offering a day of regenerative music and educational workshops free and accessible to all \n• Featuring notable musical ambassadors from the great city of New Orleans \n• Providing performance opportunities for San Diego’s diverse music community including military bands\, school ensembles\, and music education nonprofits

SUMMARY:A Black-billed Cuckoo
DESCRIPTION:Sep 15 – Oct 11 | Mandell Weiss Forum \nBy Mat Smart \nDirected by Shelley Butler \n\n\nMost performances are full but some tickets are released daily. Check back here\, join our email list to be notified and follow us on Instagram where we post ticket releases on our Stories.\n“Packed with humor… delightful\, funny and surprising. A gentle and rewarding play about friendship\, found family and starting over.” San Diego Union-Tribune \nThe elusive black-billed cuckoo is notoriously difficult to find\, even if you know what you’re looking for — and that’s precisely the bird Ruth has been looking for these past few years. Over 24 hours in Brooklyn’s Prospect Park\, a close-knit birding group is turned upside down when some of its members glimpse this rare bird and others don’t. \nAward-winning playwright Mat Smart — known for his “intricate\, delightful comic drama” storytelling (The New York Times) — introduces us to a fascinating community of people who revel in the idea that any given day might bring something they’ve never seen before. Director Shelley Butler has worked extensively on new plays\, creating “dynamic\, charming\, and laugh-filled” productions (BroadwayWorld).
