Description:
Join Carrie and the Gathering of Spirits String Quartet and special guest Tommy Prine for an evening of music and stories that celebrate, sustain and inspire. Carrie will perform songs from her new and past albums with arranger/pianist Gary Walters, violinist Allie Summers and the Gathering of Spirits String Quartet for this unique blending of story and songs that celebrate what is sustaining and hopeful, reminding us of how even in divided times we are still connected at the center of the human heart. The songs on the new collection explore what it means to live with hope and purpose in challenging times. She sings of seeing wonders in small moments and delight in daily encounters, as well as describes the questions that continue to define and frame her experience. In A Great Wild Mercy Newcomer taps into our shared human longing for a better world that is spiritual and expansive, but always grounded in the most ordinary of things and human sized kindness. This will offer a new spin on a Hoosier favorite for longtime fans and a great introduction for new listeners. Carrie is delighted to invite rising songwriter, Tommy Prine, who is carrying on the musical tradition of his father John and will be opening the show with his own blend of songwriting filled with poignant insights into the human condition.
VIP ticket holders will receive their ticket, an invite to the pre-show event with musician meet-and-greet, and a signed limited edition poster.

Proof
by David Auburn
Description:
As its inaugural production, Off-Night Productions presents Proof by David Auburn. This Pulitzer Prize-winning play is full of humor and compassion, even as it explores tragedy, stigma, and sexism in one family and within the larger world of academia.
Dramatist’s Play Service summarizes Proof: “On the eve of her twenty-fifth birthday, Catherine, a troubled young woman, has spent years caring for her brilliant but unstable father, a famous mathematician. Now, following his death, she must deal with her own volatile emotions; the arrival of her estranged sister, Claire; and the attentions of Hal, a former student of her father’s who hopes to find valuable work in the 103 notebooks that her father left behind. Over the long weekend that follows, a burgeoning romance and the discovery of a mysterious notebook draw Catherine into the most difficult problem of all: How much of her father’s madness or genius-will she inherit?”
Off Night Productions is a female-lead production company producing contemporary theatre and music in Bloomington, Indiana. Learn more at www.onptheatre.weebly.com.
