But his family is not at all ready to abandon its prized son to the waters of a mysterious and haunting past. Blending poetry\, humor\, wordplay\, and ritual\, Dontrell\, Who Kissed the Sea is a present-day hero’s quest exploring the lengths and depths we must go to redeem history’s wrongs. – Concord Theatricals \n“Nathan Alan Davis’s script is sunny and lovable\, despite its inexorable pull from present-day Baltimore toward the slave trade’s notorious Middle Passage.” – The Washington Post \n“This fable about a young Black man’s search for an ancestor who leapt off a slave ship as it crossed the Atlantic weaves storytelling\, music\, dance\, and ritual into a fantastical tapestry […] the result is thrilling.” – Los Angeles Post \n“[T]his play’s greatness doesn’t really come from the plot\, though the plot’s water-tightness and inevitability show playwright Nathan Alan Davis’ incredible skill. The characters and poetically transfixing language are the real stars.” – DC Theatre Scene \n“Dontrell\, Who Kissed the Sea” is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals on behalf of Samuel French\, Inc. www.concordtheatricals.com URL:https://vpa.uncg.edu/single-event/dontrell-who-kissed-the-sea/ LOCATION:Pam and David Sprinkle Theatre\, 402 Tate Street\, Greensboro\, NC\, 27403\, United States CATEGORIES:College of Visual and Performing Arts,School of Theatre END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20220915T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20220915T160000 DTSTAMP:20260522T024406 CREATED:20240130T163215Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240130T163215Z UID:10000414-1663232400-1663257600@vpa.uncg.edu SUMMARY:Persistence of Vision DESCRIPTION:Persistence of Vision – Gatewood Studio Art Center \nAugust 10 – September 27\, 2022 \nMonday – Friday 9:00 – 4:00pmSaturday 1:00 – 4:00pm URL:https://vpa.uncg.edu/single-event/persistence-of-vision-25/ LOCATION:Gatewood Studio Arts Center\, 527 Highland Ave\, Greensboro\, NC 27412\, USA\, 527 Highland Ave\, Greensboro\, 27412\, United States CATEGORIES:School of Art END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20220914T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20220914T160000 DTSTAMP:20260522T024406 CREATED:20240130T163215Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240130T163215Z UID:10000413-1663146000-1663171200@vpa.uncg.edu SUMMARY:Persistence of Vision DESCRIPTION:Persistence of Vision – Gatewood Studio Art Center \nAugust 10 – September 27\, 2022 \nMonday – Friday 9:00 – 4:00pmSaturday 1:00 – 4:00pm URL:https://vpa.uncg.edu/single-event/persistence-of-vision-24/ LOCATION:Gatewood Studio Arts Center\, 527 Highland Ave\, Greensboro\, NC 27412\, USA\, 527 Highland Ave\, Greensboro\, 27412\, United States CATEGORIES:School of Art END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20220913T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20220913T160000 DTSTAMP:20260522T024406 CREATED:20240130T163215Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240130T163215Z UID:10000412-1663059600-1663084800@vpa.uncg.edu SUMMARY:Persistence of Vision DESCRIPTION:Persistence of Vision – Gatewood Studio Art Center \nAugust 10 – September 27\, 2022 \nMonday – Friday 9:00 – 4:00pmSaturday 1:00 – 4:00pm URL:https://vpa.uncg.edu/single-event/persistence-of-vision-23/ LOCATION:Gatewood Studio Arts Center\, 527 Highland Ave\, Greensboro\, NC 27412\, USA\, 527 Highland Ave\, Greensboro\, 27412\, United States CATEGORIES:School of Art END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20220913 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20220918 DTSTAMP:20260522T024406 CREATED:20240130T163214Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240130T163214Z UID:10000411-1663027200-1663459199@vpa.uncg.edu SUMMARY:“To Light and Then Return” Exhibition @ Greensboro Project Space DESCRIPTION:Exhibition on View \nWhen: September 13th- September 17th\, 2022 \nWhere: Greensboro Project Space (111 E February One Place) \nGallery Hours: Tuesdays-Fridays\, 12-5pm; Saturdays\, 2-5pm \nSolo Show\, Featuring: Helen Jones \nMore About To light and then returnTo light and then return is an examination of the things we carry with us\, both emotionally and physically\, across lands from place to place. Taking its name from a short poem\, almost a fragment\, written on the back of an envelope by Emily Dickinson\, this work marvels at the magic and mistakes of photography\, meditates on loss\, and places value on the everyday sediments of our lives. \nSublime large-format landscapes and still lifes of teeth and ashes share space with washed-out snapshots and aged ephemera\, words of wisdom\, shopping lists\, and favorite poems copied by hand—items inherited when the artist’s parents passed. These combinations make space for new meanings; a piece of carbon paper becomes the night sky\, two awkwardly positioned rocks are bodies supporting one another\, and light flares and glares become spirits populating the images. \nAbout Helen JonesHelen Jones holds an MFA from the University of Texas\, Austin\, and a BFA in Photography from the Massachusetts College of Art. She spent the intervening years in Oregon\, where she established Pine Island Press\, a small press specializing in art and photography zines\, including the publication Incandescent\, which has just released its 20th issue. Helen’s work explores interactions between people\, places\, and landscapes. Her aesthetic is one of things built up unintentionally and of imprints left behind. Her work has been featured online on sites such as Ain’t—Bad\, Nowhere Diary\, Lenscratch\, F-stop Magazine\, and Float Magazine; and in print in Subjectively\, Objective’s Monthly Monograph Magazine. She has exhibited in group shows at the Visual Art Center (Austin\, Texas)\, Vermont Center for Photography (Brattleboro\, Vermont)\, UnSmoke Systems (Braddock\, Pennsylvania)\, and was included in the Pacific Northwest Photography Viewing Drawers at Blue Sky Gallery (Portland\, Oregon). \nhttps://www.greensboroprojectspace.com/blog-post/to-light-and-then-return URL:https://vpa.uncg.edu/single-event/to-light-and-then-return-exhibition-greensboro-project-space/ LOCATION:Greensboro Project Space\, 111 E February 1 Pl\, Greensboro\, NC 27406\, USA CATEGORIES:School of Art END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20220912T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20220912T160000 DTSTAMP:20260522T024406 CREATED:20240130T163214Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240130T163214Z UID:10000410-1662973200-1662998400@vpa.uncg.edu SUMMARY:Persistence of Vision DESCRIPTION:Persistence of Vision – Gatewood Studio Art Center \nAugust 10 – September 27\, 2022 \nMonday – Friday 9:00 – 4:00pmSaturday 1:00 – 4:00pm URL:https://vpa.uncg.edu/single-event/persistence-of-vision-22/ LOCATION:Gatewood Studio Arts Center\, 527 Highland Ave\, Greensboro\, NC 27412\, USA\, 527 Highland Ave\, Greensboro\, 27412\, United States CATEGORIES:School of Art END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20220910T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20220910T160000 DTSTAMP:20260522T024406 CREATED:20240130T163214Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240130T163214Z UID:10000409-1662814800-1662825600@vpa.uncg.edu SUMMARY:Persistence of Vision DESCRIPTION:Persistence of Vision – Gatewood Studio Art Center \nAugust 10 – September 27\, 2022 \nMonday – Friday 9:00 – 4:00pmSaturday 1:00 – 4:00pm URL:https://vpa.uncg.edu/single-event/persistence-of-vision-21/ LOCATION:Gatewood Studio Arts Center\, 527 Highland Ave\, Greensboro\, NC 27412\, USA\, 527 Highland Ave\, Greensboro\, 27412\, United States CATEGORIES:School of Art END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20220909T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20220909T160000 DTSTAMP:20260522T024406 CREATED:20240130T163214Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240130T163214Z UID:10000408-1662714000-1662739200@vpa.uncg.edu SUMMARY:Persistence of Vision DESCRIPTION:Persistence of Vision – Gatewood Studio Art Center \nAugust 10 – September 27\, 2022 \nMonday – Friday 9:00 – 4:00pmSaturday 1:00 – 4:00pm URL:https://vpa.uncg.edu/single-event/persistence-of-vision-20/ LOCATION:Gatewood Studio Arts Center\, 527 Highland Ave\, Greensboro\, NC 27412\, USA\, 527 Highland Ave\, Greensboro\, 27412\, United States CATEGORIES:School of Art END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20220908T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20220908T160000 DTSTAMP:20260522T024406 CREATED:20240130T163214Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240130T163214Z UID:10000407-1662627600-1662652800@vpa.uncg.edu SUMMARY:Persistence of Vision DESCRIPTION:Persistence of Vision – Gatewood Studio Art Center \nAugust 10 – September 27\, 2022 \nMonday – Friday 9:00 – 4:00pmSaturday 1:00 – 4:00pm URL:https://vpa.uncg.edu/single-event/persistence-of-vision-19/ LOCATION:Gatewood Studio Arts Center\, 527 Highland Ave\, Greensboro\, NC 27412\, USA\, 527 Highland Ave\, Greensboro\, 27412\, United States CATEGORIES:School of Art END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20220907T193000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20220907T193000 DTSTAMP:20260522T024406 CREATED:20240130T163207Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240130T163207Z UID:10000406-1662579000-1662579000@vpa.uncg.edu SUMMARY:Winston Duke DESCRIPTION:Winston Duke made his feature film debut in Black Panther\, the highest-grossing film of 2018\, as well as the third-highest-grossing film ever in the United States.

Particularly known for her uniquely evocative collaborations including movement\, singing and acting\, Boysen uses these forms of creative expression both in performance and as a method for teaching artistic concepts. For her demonstrative expertise and virtuosic performance\, she has been invited to Asia\, Australia\, Central America\, Europe\, and to over a dozen US states to perform in recitals\, teach master classes\, and lead creative workshops. \nActive on all fronts\, recent highlights include: solo and chamber performances in Shanghai\, China\, guest artist appearances at the Flutes by the Sea Workshop in California\, and Anatomy of Sound Workshop in Michigan. Additionally\, Boysen recently released the video mobile app\, Moving Sound\, that features newly commissioned solo works for the singing\, speaking\, moving flutist by composers: David Biedenbender\, Mark Engebretson\, and Jane Rigler. The app\, available for download on apple and android devices\, includes a moving score\, interviews with composers and behind-the-scenes footage from the recording process. \nWhenever possible\, Dr. Boysen believes in combining the power of music\, movement\, and theater to create. To this end\, she has performed theatrically inclined work by composer Kate Soper\, fully choreographed interpretations of existing work from composers such as Toru Takemitsu\, and entirely new works from composers such as Jane Rigler. In combination with performances in multiple years of the National Flute Association Convention\, these highlights have earned Boysen international recognition\, including features on The Flute View and Flute Talk and requests to conduct workshops and masterclasses in universities and festivals across the world. \nAs a “seated” performer\, Erika also takes the stage frequently as a chamber musician. Though she regularly performs in a number of chamber ensembles\, most decorated has been her role in the Four Corners Ensemble (4CE)\, a sextet of flute\, clarinet\, violin\, viola\, cello and piano dedicated to international collaboration. Recent 4CE performances have included recitals in Carnegie Hall\, Shanghai Conservatory\, Qingdao University of Science and Technology\, and at the Consulate General of the Republic of Poland\, where Boysen premiered flute concerto The Dryad by composer Shuying Li. Other previous and forthcoming performances with chamber groups include the Pittsburgh New Music Ensemble\, Eighth Blackbird\, Seen/Heard Trio\, and COLLAPSS. \nIn addition to her primary position as Assistant Professor of Flute at UNCG\, Boysen has had other faculty positions of note. She served on the faculty of Interlochen’s Arts Camp and Arts Academy as well as the Atlantic Music Festival in Maine. \nA native of Iowa\, Erika Boysen is based in Greensboro\, North Carolina. She received her Doctorate of Musical Arts from the University of Michigan\, where her dissertation recitals featured collaborations with spoken word\, dance\, and visual art. Further education comes from the New England Conservatory and University of North Carolina School of the Arts. She is grateful to her former teachers\, who include Amy Porter\, Paula Robison\, Dr. Tadeu Coelho\, Dr. Kimberly Helton\, and Mark Sparks.

An expanded and strengthened descendent of the Classical-era fortepianos played by Mozart and Haydn\, it is similar to the pianos Beethoven knew during his later years. It has a range of six and a half octaves with 81 keys of ivory and ebony\, leather-covered hammers attached directly to the keys\, parallel stringing throughout the scale\, and pedals for lifting the dampers and shifting the keyboard (una corda). The case\, veneered in ash\, supports the tension of the strings without the assistance of an iron plate. The sound delivers clarity\, variety of color\, and the sweetness of tone for which Bösendorfer was particularly esteemed. \nAndrew Willis\, fortepiano\nPianist Andrew Willis explores the historical development of keyboard instruments and their performance practice\, maintaining a commitment to the study\, performance\, and teaching of the widest possible range of repertoire. Keenly interested in the history of the piano\, he contributes frequently to conferences\, festivals\, and concert series. He has served as president of the Southeastern Historical Keyboard Society and as a Trustee of the Westfield Center for Historical Keyboard Studies. As Covington Distinguished Professor of Music in the UNC Greensboro School of Music\, Willis teaches performance on instruments ranging from harpsichord to modern piano. He directed the biennial UNCG Focus on Piano Literature for over a decade and recently inaugurated a student Historical Performance Consort. For the Albany\, Bridge\, Claves\, Centaur\, and CRI labels he has recorded solo and ensemble music of three centuries on pianos linked historically to the chosen repertoire. Willis received the DMA in Historical Performance from Cornell University\, where he studied fortepiano with\nMalcolm Bilson\, the MM in Accompanying and Chamber Music from Temple University under George Sementovsky and Lambert Orkis\, and the BM in Piano from The Curtis Institute of Music\, where his mentor was Mieczyslaw Horszowski. \nRobert Bracey\, tenor\nRobert Bracey has performed throughout the United States and made appearances in Canada\, Russia\, Europe\, India\, and Japan. He was awarded first place in the Oratorio Society of New York’s Annual International Solo Competition at Carnegie Hall. He returned to Carnegie Hall for performances of Handel: Messiah.

He is currently Professor of Voice and Chair of the Voice Area at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. \nNicholas DiEugenio\, violin\nPraised for the “rapturous poetry” in his playing (American Record Guide) and as an “excellent” and “evocative” violinist (New York Times)\, Nicholas DiEugenio leads a versatile performing life as a chamber musician\, leader\, and soloist in music ranging from early baroque to current commissions. He performs in venues such as Glinka Hall in St. Petersburg\, Trinity Wall St.\, Freiburg’s Ensemblehaus\, and Weill Recital Hall. Together with pianist and duo partner Mimi Solomon\, Nicholas created the project “Unraveling Beethoven\,” a cycle of all ten violin sonatas combined with response works from composers Tonia Ko\, Jesse Jones\, Robert Honstein\, D.K. Garner\, and Allen Anderson. The award-winning album Unraveling Beethoven was released in 2018 by New Focus Recordings. Other featured recordings include the complete Violin Sonatas of Robert Schumann (Musica Omnia) as well as a tribute to Pulitzer prizewinner Steven Stucky (New Focus).
