There is something magical about a ticket to the Z. There, in your hand, you hold the key to the buzz of excitement, the company of friends, the golden muses, the chandelier, the moment when the lights dim, the anticipation you feel as the curtain rises and then, yes, and then the soaring begins - the music, the voice, the dance and the actor! It is that experience and the extraordinary artists we bring that together make a ticket to The Z magic.

The stage is set and we are ready to go! The 2011-2012 season begins with laughter and a legend - Bill Cosby, then rolls full steam ahead from October to May with great music, hilarity, inspiration, breathtaking dance, great theatre and a big dose of the “Wow Factor”. From Bowfire to Bela Fleck and Spamalot to Drumline, the stars of The Jersey Boys, and the great Hugh Masekela, it’s a non-stop jaw-dropping ride to our spectacular Grand finale.

The big hit “Stage Door Live!” and Block Parties are back along with brand new adventures! We’ve added “Encounters” and “Explorations” that open the door to fresh experiences and explorations.

So, with your ticket in hand, join us and let the magic begin!

The week culminates with an unforgettable theatrical experience incorporating music, sculpture, dance, video projection and a high tech visual light show.

Moby-Dick has become a part of popular culture throughout the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, popping up in everything from a Led Zeppelin song to The Simpsons to Star Trek. There are many different adaptations of Moby-Dick in a variety of genres.

This season, to mark the 160th anniversary of its publication, The Z and The Whaling Museum come together to celebrate the iconic tale of the great whale in art, on screen, in community and on stage.

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 4 AT 7:30PM SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 5 AT 3PM & 7:30PM

TICKETS: $30 Stage seating General admission

One of Ireland’s best known theater companies, Gare St. Lazare, brings to The Z a stunning stage adaptation of Herman Melville’s great American novel, Moby-Dick. A oneman performance by Conor Lovett, accompanied by original music by Caoimhin O’Raghallaigh on fiddle, viola and uileann pipes, the performance catches both the mischievous humor and the wisdom of Ishmael’s commentary. Lovett holds audiences spellbound during this classic tale of a mythic sea monster, the vengeful Captain Ahab, and their epic ocean journey aboard The Pequod. Beautiful.

Gare St. Lazare’s national tour of Moby Dick is part of IMAGINE IRELAND:

On Screen 55th Anniversary THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 3 AT 7PM

TICKETS: $5.50 (1956 price)

On June 26, 1956, a crowd of 35,000 roared a warm welcome to the stars of Warner Brothers world premiere of Moby Dick at the Zeiterion. For three days, New Bedford was alive with festivities. With Ahab beard growing contests to parades and parties, thousands celebrated the whaling heritage of the city and the arrival of Gregory Peck and John Huston.

Join us for the 55th anniversary of the premiere.

Fun Fact! TWO NEW BEDFORDS: ONE FILM In 1954, John Huston filmed “Moby Dick” with the town of Youghal, Ireland as stand-in for New Bedford. The play “Moby Dick” premiered in Youghal’s Town Hall theater which served as the costume department for the film. That film had its world premiere at The Z. Gare St. Lazare will perform “Moby Dick” on The Z stage and we will welcome the Mayor of Youghal to celebrate the fantastic history of two sea towns linked by the film, performing artists and the on-going link between Ireland and the USA.* *Special thanks to the Friendly Sons of St. Patrick for sponsoring the Mayor’s trip to New Bedford.

This is an extraordinary, provocative and moving experience for the boldest among you. Living in Exile is a radical retelling of Homer’s Iliad performed in a living room. Exile marries the technology of today to one of Western civilization’s oldest accounts of war to make the connection between past and present. The piece creates two contradictory worlds in collision - the comfort of our living rooms, our televisions and cell phones and, in the intimacy of the performance, a deeply personal and harrowing experience of the violence of war. Living in Exile challenges us to question our indifference and disengagement from the wars being waged. For this performance the audience is seated in a living room created by The Z in the Penler space adjacent to the lobby.

The experience of putting all of your trust and attention and affection toward an actor up close is really quite amazing – it is an experience in which the human connection between artist and audience is so intense as to wholly remove you from your world, for a little while.

One of Ireland’s best known theatre companies, Gare St. Lazare Players, brings to The Z a stunning stage adaptation of Herman Melville’s great American novel, Moby-Dick. A one-man performance by Conor Lovett, accompanied by original music by Caoimhin O’Raghallaigh on fiddle, viola and uileann pipes, the performance catches both the mischievous humor and the wisdom of Ishmael’s commentary. Lovett holds audiences spellbound during this classic tale of a mythic sea monster, the vengeful Captain Ahab, and their epic ocean journey aboard The Pequod. This production is everything Moby-Dick should be, freshly invigorated by artists from a fellow nation with its own rich understanding both of seafaring and of storytelling. Beautiful.

Ana Vinagre THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 10 AT 7:30PM Back by popular demand!

Singing Portuguese Fado and accompanied by musicians José Silva, Viriato Ferreira, and Peter Pimental, Ana, the voice of a true fadista, embodies and expresses the soul of this beautiful music tradition.

Frank Vignola THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 2 AT 7:30PM Acoustic guitar music like you’ve never heard before! Frank Vignola ‘s stunning virtuosity has made him the guitarist of choice for many of the world’s top musicians, including Les Paul who named Vignola to his “Five Most Admired Guitarists List” for the Wall Street Journal. Vignola’s jaw-dropping technique explains why the New York Times deemed him “one of the brightest...stars of the guitar”.

Dane Vannatter THURSDAY, March 22 AT 7:30PM Cabaret singer, Dane Vanetter has been acclaimed by reviewers at The New York Post, The Boston Globe and BackStage.

The Boston Globe says, “Dane Vannatter’s distinctive style leaves an imprint on whatever music he sings. His voice has a floating quality that gets in your head and won’t leave….his music is a swinging, soaring adventure!”

Natalia Zukerman THURSDAY, MARCH 8 AT 7:30PM With diverse influences that include Folk, Jazz, Blues, Rock, Bluegrass, Country and even Classical, Natalia Zukerman has been described by NPR as “an example of the finest Americana.” She combines her unique slide guitar playing style with seductive vocals, a painter’s observing eye, unapologetic writing, and sharp wit. Her music is as riddled with urban restlessness as it is grounded in rootsy warmth – a welcome contradiction.

“Natalia’s voice could send an orchid into bloom while her guitar playing can open a beer bottle with its teeth.”

– New Yorker
