FREE for Passport members! The Dayton Philharmonic Presents:
Nature's Way Friday, October 14, 2016 at 8:00pm Saturday, October 15, 2016 at 8:00pm Schuster Center
Join us at the Schuster Center during the height of autumn to celebrate the world of nature: whether it be nature as we see it—plants and animals, water and land—or nature as forces that we may or may not see—the building blocks of the cosmos.
To start the program, the Dayton Philharmonic Orchestra and concertmaster Jessica Hung will perform one of the best-known compositions of Antonio Vivaldi. The Four Seasons is the collective name given to four separate violin concertos based on the seasons: Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter.
In Dumfries, Scotland, an architectural theorist, Charles Jencks, and his late wife, Maggie Keswick, an expert on Chinese gardens, designed what came to be called the Garden of Cosmic Speculation. This home of science as garden and vice versa inspired Gandolfi's 2009 work The Garden of Cosmic Speculation. With the garden and its theories as his muse, Gandolfi has created an energetic and innovative piece that never really allows the listener to predict what will be heard next.
We are lucky in the Miami Valley to experience all four of the seasons as well as nature and its forces . . . come revel in the beauty with the Dayton Philharmonic Orchestra!
Each Passport member is entitled to two FREE "C" level tickets for one of the performances. To reserve your tickets, call Ticket Center Stage at 937-228-3630 and provide your Passport number. Show your current Passport Card and photo identification when picking up tickets at the Ticket Center Stage box office or at the performance venue.

Gem City Ballet Presents:
Fall Repertory Stuart Sebastian Performance Space 20 Commercial Way Springboro, OH 45066
Saturday, October 15, 2016 at 8:00pm Sunday, October 16, 2016 at 2:00pm Saturday, October 22, 2016 at 8:00pm Sunday, October 23, 2016 at 2:00pm
Gem City Ballet, the Miami Valley's premiere pre-professional ballet company, will open its 25th Anniversary Season with an exciting and fun-filled Fall Repertory Program. There are company favorites like Paquita Variations, which GCB has performed many times over its history, as well as new works.
Artistic Director, Barbara Pontecorvo, is bringing back Second Thoughts--a ballet she choreographed in 1987 while still Director of Dayton Ballet II. Sam Jones, a former Cincinnati Ballet dancer who has performed multiple times with GCB, is choreographing an ethereal, misty ballet challenging the GCB dancers in its partnering skills and movement quality, and former GCB alumni Erin Wheeler will be presenting a new ballet filled with imagery and imagination.
Finally, GCB will perform one of the first ballets Stuart Sebastian choreographed for Dayton Ballet--the hilarious Ballet a la Carte, with music by Gottshalk. This ballet is full of widely drawn characters, such as the very rich Grande Dame, the conniving Gigolo and his equal, the Gigolette, and the beautiful, flirty Coquette. Backed up a stuffy Maitre'd, two inexperienced junior waiters and three schoolgirls, the afternoon at the French cafe becomes very educational for all.
To purchase Buy One – Get One FREE tickets for Passport-eligible performances, call the Gem City Ballet at 937-550-9245. Show your current Passport Card when picking up tickets at the performance venue. Each Passport Member is limited to two tickets.

With the vividness and brevity that are the hallmark of the verismo (realistic) style, Leoncavallo's masterwork quickly sweeps the audience along with its grand tunes and gut-punching heartbreak, climaxing in an onstage murder among the clown troupe as the players gradually veer from their script until the final tragedy occurs.
