SUMMARY:Churchill Starring David Payne
DESCRIPTION:Winston Churchill\, has just been awarded honorary US citizenship by President John F. Kennedy.

SUMMARY:Florentine Opera: La Traviata
DESCRIPTION:She lives fast\, loves freely\, and throws a better party than anyone in Paris. But beneath the champagne and charm\, Violetta knows her days in the spotlight won’t last forever. When she dares to trade pleasure for true love\, society—and Alfredo’s very proper family—are quick to remind her just how unforgiving Paris can be. \nVerdi’s La Traviata is all romance\, sacrifice\, and a story where “happily ever after” takes a hard pass. \nAt a Glance Blurb: She lives fast and loves freely\, but Violetta’s time is running out. Trading pleasure for true love sets her on a collision course with a judgmental society. Experience Verdi’s La Traviata—where “happily ever after” isn’t part of the program. \nBonus Content: \nPre Opera Talk: Featuring head of music and education and community engagement manager- October 16\, 2026  at 6:30pm & October 18\, 2026  at 1:30pm
