We are so excited to share Carnegie Hall’s new home for the national youth ensemble residency: the @univofmaryland in College Park!

Beginning this summer, we are launching a new collaboration with the world-class Clarice Smith Performing Arts Center (@theclariceumd) and UMD School of Music (@terpsmusic). Home to exceptional performances and programs that nurture the next generation of musicians, these outstanding facilities will provide an inspiring setting for our young musicians.

We are thrilled to share this new partnership—and bring music making from some of the finest teen musicians to College Park!

When the power goes out, what stories survive? In Anne Washburn’s Mr. Burns, A Post‑Electric Play, a band of survivors huddles around a fire and retells The Simpsons episode, “Cape Feare.” As the years pass, commercial jingles become parables, pop songs turn into hymns and TV characters (like the titular Mr. Burns) transform into mythic figures of the time before the collapse. Wildly funny and unexpectedly moving, Mr. Burns is a genre-bending mash-up of theater, pop culture, opera and commedia dell’arte with “depths of feeling to match its breadth of imagination” (The New York Times). Directed by Elizabeth Dinkova (Artistic Director, Spooky Action Theater), this daring play returns to its roots after premiering at D.C.’s Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company.

At The Clarice Oct 9, 10, 15, 16 and 18. Tickets and more information at our website. by @theclariceumd

Counterpoint is a one-of-a-kind project—part dance and part piano recital, with a dose of theatrics—that demands to be experienced live! The collaboration between great American composer and pianist Conrad Tao and outstanding tap dancer Caleb Teicher is a uniquely fresh and deeply vital exploration of percussion's transcendent joys of sound and impact.
