The United Palace of Cultural Arts is proud to present the first two episodes of Choir Games, a four-part documentary about the World Choir Games, the largest choral competition on Earth. View trailer.

Two choirs – Young People’s Chorus of New York City and the Kaitaia Community Voices from rural New Zealand – live oceans apart, but find they are connected by music as they navigate personal challenges and the pressure of competition, and find their lives forever changed. Choir Games is a deeply moving, often hilarious, exploration of the transformative power of song.

After the two 45-minute episodes (90 minutes total) there will be a talk back with the filmmakers.

This program is supported by the United Palace of Cultural Arts, in part, by public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council.

UP Theater Company: “Bread of Life”

March 26 through April 12
7:00 PM Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays
2:00 PM Saturdays

Northern Manhattan’s UP Theater Company celebrates its 15th Season with the world premiere of “Bread of Life” by Frank Pagliaro, directed by Leslie Kincaid Burby.

We may know the story of St. Peter, but what about the family he left behind? “Bread of Life” tells the original story of a family in Bethsaida, fractured by the Messianic message of a mysterious carpenter from Nazareth, and the fallout of fanaticism.

30 AD. The midst of Roman occupation. A mysterious messiah roams ancient Galilee. His startling message leads a father away from home, leaving his wife and son to deal with a tragic upheaval. “Bread of Life” examines the costs of religious radicalism in the context of political oppression and domestic discipline.

Featuring:

Jesse Castellanos*, Laura Fois*, Cameron Mark Russell, Miguel Reis, Nikaury Rodriguez*.
