A Healthy Sense of Balance

A Welcome From Our President

I am filled with joy to welcome you to our theatre for Mayo Performing Arts Center’s 28th season. The past several years have been challenging for all of us, but MPAC continues to rebound and return to the full slate of world class performances, engaging education classes and diverse outreach concerts that you have come to expect.

We believe that MPAC is the heart of arts and entertainment in our region – it’s where our community comes together to share a mutual love of the arts. If there’s one thing that we’ve learned during the past few years, it is just how vital and necessary the arts are to refresh and renew our spirit.

We often talk about the memorable performances on our stage, but every person who comes through our doors has their own special experience to share. This season promises to be full of great new stories to tell and memories to create. MPAC strives to make every event here a joyful one for every person who walks through our doors.

This year, I celebrate my 20th season with this amazing organization. I want to thank our Board of Trustees, dedicated staff, wonderful volunteers, generous donors and loyal patrons who have helped the theatre flourish over the past two decades. It continues to be an incredible journey.

Let’s get on with the show! Enjoy the performance!

Allison Larena President & CEO

A Welcome From Our Chairman of the Board of Trustees

It is my pleasure to welcome you to Mayo Performing Arts Center.

As the arts industry continues to recover from two very tough years, MPAC is adroitly adapting to the post-COVID environment. MPAC continues to strengthen its leadership position as the model performing arts organization to which other venues aspire.

It will take additional time for MPAC to fully recover from the impact of the pandemic, but we are on a very positive trajectory thanks in no small part to your support. I’m grateful to our dedicated members who continue to stand by us, because they believe our mission is more vital than ever.

We hope that you will consider supporting MPAC as we fill our stage with exciting concerts, expand empowering educational offerings to thousands of school age children and grow our diverse arts programs. We are your community resource to connect you, your family, friends and neighbors with the joy of experiencing and participating in the arts.

Thank you again for your support. I look forward to seeing you at MPAC.

Sincerely,

Gregory J. Supron Chairman, Board of Trustees

Rufus Wainwright: Folkocracy Tour

Praised by the New York Times for his “genuine originality,” Rufus Wainwright has established himself as one of the great male vocalists and songwriters of his generation. The New York-born, Montreal-raised singer songwriter has released seven studio albums, three DVDs, and three live albums, including the fantastic Grammy nominated Rufus Does Judy at Carnegie Hall, which captured his celebrated Judy Garland tribute performance at the London Palladium in 2007, and the album Release The Stars which went Gold in Canada and the U.K.

Wainwright has received Juno Awards for Best Alternative Album in 1999 and 2002 for Rufus Wainwright and Poses, respectively, and nominations for his albums Want Two (2005) and Release the Stars (2008). He was nominated for Songwriter of the Year in 2008 for his Release the Stars album. He also composed the original music for choreographer Stephen Petronio’s work BLOOM which has toured across the country.

Musically Rufus has collaborated with artists including Elton John, Burt Bacharach, Miley Cyrus, David Byrne, Boy George, Carly Rae Jebsen, Joni Mitchell, Pet Shop Boys and producer Mark Ronson among many others. He collaborated with Robbie Williams on the title track of his album, Swings Both Ways, which was co-written with renowned musician and producer Guy Chambers and sung as a duet between Rufus and Robbie. In addition to being a celebrated contemporary pop singer, Rufus has made a name for himself in the classical world. His much acclaimed first opera, titled Prima Donna, premiered at the Manchester International Festival in July 2009. The opera was subsequently performed in London at Sadler’s Wells in April 2010, in Toronto at the Luminato Festival in June 2010 and at the Brooklyn Academy of Music’s Howard Gilman Opera House in February 2012. Now fully established as a composer of operas, Rufus has been commissioned by the Canadian Opera Company to write his second opera based on the story of the Roman Emperor Hadrian and Antinous. The new opera premiered in Toronto in October 2018 with

international opera star Thomas Hampson creating the title role and Finnish soprano Karita Mattila singing the role of Plotina. “Hadrian” has been nominated in the best World Premiere category of the International Opera Awards. It was recently revived in a new production featuring over 300 images by photographer Robert Mapplethorpe at the Teatro Real in Madrid and the Peralada Festival in Spain.

Rufus has also distinguished himself by playing original orchestrated pop songs and pieces from an extensive classical repertoire with well-respected opera singers such as Sondra Radvanovsky, Anna Prohaska, or Angelika Kirchschlager and orchestras around the world such as the Chicago Symphony, Toronto Symphony, Residentie Orchestra, Orchestre National de lIle de France, the orchestras of the Teatro Real and Teatro Colon among others. Wainwright was commissioned by the San Francisco Symphony to compose “Five Shakespeare Sonnets,” a five-movement suite that sets the texts from selected Shakespearian “Sonnets” to orchestra and voice. “Five Shakespeare Sonnets” premiered in the US in 2010 and debuted in the UK in 2012 with the sixtypiece BBC Symphony Orchestra conducted by Rory MacDonald. Rufus was asked by famed director Robert Wilson to compose music for Shakespeare Sonnette that was staged at the Berliner Ensemble in 2009. Other achievements include the 2012 world premiere of Sing Me The Songs That Say I Love You: A Concert for Kate McGarrigle, the feature length music documentary starring Rufus, Martha Wainwright and their family and directed by Lian Lunson. The film captures the May 2011 tribute concert honoring Rufus’ late mother, the great singer songwriter Kate McGarrigle. Nonesuch Records released a record, Sing Me The Songs That Say I Love You: Celebrating the Works of Kate McGarrigle which included songs from the movie as well as selections from the three tribute concerts for Kate given in London, New York and Toronto and featuring performances by Rufus, Martha, Anna McGarrigle, Emmylou Harris, Emmylou Harris, Richard and Linda Thompson and

many others. The movie and the record are both available on iTunes and Amazon. Rufus and his sister are spearheading the Kate McGarrigle Fund for Sarcoma Research at Stand Up 2 Cancer and have raised hundreds of thousands dollars for this cause through concerts and appearances worldwide.

In 2013 he performed at the Kennedy Center Awards honoring the work of Billy Joel. He performed at the 90th birthday concert for Tony Bennett at Radio City Music Hall and is featured on the Grammy winning album release of that show. In 2013 and 2018 he performed at the 70th and 75th birthday concerts respectively for Joni Mitchell. The 2018 concerts at the Dorothy Chandler Pavillion of LA’s Music Center are released as an album with Universal Music Group and the film “The Music Center Presents Joni 75 – a Birthday Celebration” has been presented as a limited theatrical release and later on PBS.

In 2016 he reprised his famous live concerts of “Rufus does Judy” at the Hearn Generating Station for Toronto’s Luminato Festival and two nights at Carnegie Hall.

He plays regularly at the major music festivals around the world including the Pyramid Stage at Glastonbury, Coachella, Roskilde, and has played most major concert halls around the world from the Philharmonie de Paris, to Royal Albert Hall in London, Radio City Music Hall, Walt Disney Concert Hall, Carnegie Hall, the Olympia in Paris, Sydney Opera House and many more. He has toured extensively in North America, South and Central America, Asia, Australia, Russia, the Middle East and Europe.

In 2014, Universal Records released Vibrate: The Best of Rufus Wainwright, a new careerspanning collection that features eighteen standout songs defining one of music’s most innovative talents. Included in the collection are three brand new recordings, “Me and Liza”, “Chic and Pointless” and “WWIII." Also released on CD and Blu-ray is Rufus Wainwright: Live from the Artists Den which captures Rufus’ inspired performance at New York City’s Church of the Ascension in 2012.

Rufus completed his PledgeMusic campaign to record Prima Donna: The Album, a studio

recording of his first opera with the BBC Symphony Orchestra. He describes, “It is vitally important to me that Prima Donna be properly recorded and released so that I can tour a concert version of it in the coming year, and I have decided to do this with the help of both PledgeMusic and the incredible BBC Symphony Orchestra which in turn requires your generous support.” Wainwright chose the PledgeMusic direct-to-fan platform so his supporters can partake in the album-making process through behind the scenes updates and exclusive views into the creative journey. Deutsche Grammophon release of a double CD recording of Prima Donna with the BBC Symphony Orchestra.

The initial success of Wainwright’s opera, Prima Donna, which premiered in 2009 at the Manchester International Festival, led him to create an artistic concert adaptation to share with the rest of the world.

The opera’s central character, a retired Diva struggling to make her return to the stage and regain her former years of greatness, was inspired by BBC Lord Harewood interviews with Maria Callas in her later years.

For the concert adaptation, Wainwright reconfigured the music he composed for the Opera, and scheduled the tour to coincide with the release of the studio recording of the complete opera with Deutsche Grammophon. Wainwright conceived of a film directed by Italian visual artist Francesco Vezzoli featuring Cindy Sherman to accompany the live music.

Prima Donna: A Symphonic Visual Concert premiered at the Odeon of Herodes Atticus at the Athens Festival in Greece on September 15th, 2015. Prima Donna: A Symphonic Visual Concert was also performed at the Gulbenkian in Lisbon, Portugal on November 27th & 28th, 2015, Buenos Aires at Teatro Colon on February 19th & 20th, 2016 and the Hong Kong Arts Festival on March 1st, 2016 and the Montreal Jazz Festival.

Rufus celebrated the 400th anniversary of Shakespeare’s death with the release of his latest album Take All My Loves: 9 Shakespeare Sonnets on Deutsche

Rufus Wainwright: Folkocracy Tour

Grammophon worldwide April 22nd, 2016. Performers on the record include Rufus’ sister Martha Wainwright, vocalist Florence Welch of Florence + the Machine, Austrian soprano Anna Prohaska; multiple Grammy-nominated composer and producer Marius de Vries; Sián Phillips, Peter Eyre who provides the introduction, and the BBC Symphony Orchestra; British actress Helena Bonham Carter, Americans Carrie Fisher and William Shatner, and the 92-year-old Inge Keller –one of the great names of German theatre.

In the fall of 2018 Wainwright embarked on a world wide tour titled “All these Poses” celebrating the 20th anniversary of his eponymous debut album and his second album Poses

He has released his tenth studio album of original songs in the summer of 2020. The album’s songs and production harken back to his explosive debut album that celebrates the sound and musical heritage of Los Angeles. “Unfollow the Rules” was nominated for a Grammy and Juno Award. The same year he

wrote “Secret Sister” for the documentary Rebel Hearts by Emmy winning director and editor Pedro Kos. Wainwright won the Hollywood Music in Media Award for Best Song in a Documentary.

His 11th studio album will be released celebrating his 50th birthday in the summer of 2023 and is a collection of folk songs and duets featuring artists such as Chaka Khan, Anohni, Brandi Carlile, John Legend and more. He is working on a musical for the West End and is writing a Requiem to be premiered with the Orchestre Philharmonique de la Radio France in June of 2024. Co-commissioners for the Requiem are the Master Chorale in Los Angeles, the Palau de la Musica in Barcelona, the Helsinki Symphony Orchestra, the RTE Orchestra in Ireland, and the Royal Ballet London. 2023 also sees the 20th anniversary of his iconic albums Want One and Want Two and Rufus will embark on a symphonic tour that starts with the Proms in London and the Ravinia Festival with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra.
