THE CHOIR OF MAN It was the runaway hit of last season at the Arts Center, and people begged us to bring them back. So we did! The Choir of Man is setting up their on-stage pub for three nights this winter, January 22-24. Didn’t make it last year? Imagine the greatest pub gig you’ve ever been to, multiply it by ten, and you’ll still be nowhere near the fun that this show exudes throughout. Part party, part concert, The Choir of Man combines hairraising harmonies, high-energy dance, and live percussion with foot-stomping choreography. The multi-talented cast of nine features world-class tap dancers, acrobats, singers, instrumentalists, and poets, ensuring that there is something for everyone. And the songs? You can expect favorites by the likes of Adele, Katy Perry, Queen, Guns N’ Roses, Paul Simon, and more. Oh, and did we mention free beer? The concert is set in a pub, with a real working bar from which the cast will pull pints and invite audience members to get up close and personal with the show—witnessing

LONE TREE ARTS CENTER
the action from chairs and tables among the guys—so come ready to drink in the action! Since debuting at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in 2017, The Choir of Man has been wowing audiences across Europe and the United States. The Edinburgh Evening News called it “the ultimate feel-good show,” and after last year’s performance at the Arts Center, we couldn’t agree more. Broadway Baby says The Choir of Man is “a feast for the senses” and adds “… [It] will have you dancing down the aisles. Leave your worries in your coat and grab a pint!” Warm up this winter with The Choir of Man, Wednesday through Friday, January 22-24. You’ll leave with a smile on your face that will last for days!

PROGRAMMING SPOTLIGHT
A Behind the Scenes Look at the Making of
HOME FOR THE HOLIDAYS Now in its seventh year, Home for the Holidays has become an Arts Center tradition. But did you know that Chris Starkey, the show’s creator, starts thinking about it in July? “Nothing better than singing Christmas songs while grilling hamburgers in 90-degree heat,” Chris says. This year, he collaborated with his brother Nate, a writer in Los Angeles, to develop the premise of Santa having a midlife crisis. Chris says that the hardest part of developing the show is creating a variety show for all ages and melding the schedules of 50+ performers who all already have crazy December performance schedules on top of Home for the Holidays. He says, “Every opening night, I literally tear up watching the talent on stage create traditions and memories for this loyal audience. It’s magic!” And if you’ve seen Home for the Holidays in the past, you know that he’s right—it IS magic! Speaking of schedules, Chris starts rehearsals for the show in September. That’s right, a full three months before the show opens. He does this because many of the dancers are involved in various Nutcracker productions throughout the metro area, and rehearsals for those
shows will monopolize time in November. Rehearsals for the singers start in October, because their performance schedules for caroling at malls and private events begin in mid-November. The kids in the show start rehearsing on the weekends in November, since weekday rehearsals are challenging due to homework and afterschool activities. Perhaps the most surprising behind the scenes fact about Home for the Holidays, though, is that the first time everyone gets together for a full run through is the day before technical production starts, which is typically one week before opening. It’s a jigsaw puzzle. Chris says, “Ask a typical theater director to produce a show this way, and they would laugh in your face!” But thanks to the hard work of the cast and the production staff, it’s worked for the past six years, and we know it’ll work again this year. A special note for this year’s production: Chris is donating all of his profits to a special family (and previous Home for the Holidays performer) whose three-year-old son is battling a rare form of cancer. Chris says, “To know we are helping in our small way is the greatest payment we have ever received.” That’s the spirit of the season, and the spirit of Home for the Holidays.

Up Close With
GIADA VALENTI An Italian chanteuse, serenading you with classic songs from decades gone by as well as some modern hits, along with some delicious treats in the lobby at intermission— can you think of a better way to spend (the day after) Valentine’s Day? We can’t! That’s why we’re bringing you Giada Valenti: To Venice with Love on February 15th at 8pm. Giada Valenti, as the title of her show suggests, hails from Venice, Italy. From an early age, she always had an interest in and an aptitude for music. She competed in competitions around Italy and studied piano and music theory at the Santa Cecilia music school in Venice. She also earned her degree at the G. Tartini in Trieste before starting her music career in Italy. After conquering the charts in Italy, Giada moved to America and settled in New York City, where she’s now been based for over a decade. In 2008, iTunes named Giada’s version of the song “Caruso” one of the 50 best songs in Italian. She was a regular performer at Feinstein’s at the Regency Hotel in New York City, until its closing in 2012. But a career high for Giada was her PBS special From Venice with Love, and the ensuing 26 city tour throughout the United States. A nationally broadcast concert would be a special achievement on any network, but the fact that it was a PBS special held special significance for Giada, who used to watch the children’s programming to improve her English when she first moved to America. Giada has a warm and engaging presence that will have you captivated from her very first note. Join us for a night of magical and romantic music with Giada Valenti: From Venice with Love.

Classic Albums Live: Damn the Torpedoes Saturday, January 25 at 8pm Founded in 2003 by Craig Martin, Classic Albums Live takes the greatest albums and recreates them live on stage—note for note, cut for cut, using the best musicians. “Think of it as a recital,” says Martin. “These albums are historic and stand the test of time.” Forgoing costumes and impersonations, Classic Albums Live has found success in concentrating solely on the music. “We don’t dress up or wear any sort of costume. We just stand there and play. All of our energy is put into the music. We want the performance to sound exactly like the album,” says Martin. we all miss tom but a few years from now we’re going to miss him even more tom had the touch the songwriters’s touch it’s the craft of writing a song that gets the whole world singing along the current pop songs - i doubt they’ll stand the test of time but we’ll be hearing ‘refugee’ forever it’s been 40 years since ‘damn the torpedos’ was released the sound of that album reminds me of the 70s it was a time when punk, disco and new waver were all exploding but ol’ tom stayed the course and wrote a perfect rock album when we started learning this album we were struck with how beautiful the guitars sounded really silky and graceful we started out with 2 guitarists and then we added 2 more it’s the sound of 4 guitars that allows the music to soar we’re going to pay this album the respect it deserves note for note - cut for cut that’s all you need craig martin founder, classic albums live Sponsored by: Season Sponsor 2019-2020 Sponsors

YOUNG AUDIENCES
At the Lone Tree Arts Center, we pride ourselves on having programming that is accessible for a wide variety of audiences. Our youngest audience enjoys our Seedlings series, which takes place once a month on a Tuesday at 9:30am and 11am. It’s a program recommended for children 5 and under, but anyone is welcome.
SEEDLINGS Our Seedlings series is different from most experiences with music or performing arts for young children. It’s not necessarily a class, although there is usually an interactive element. We want Seedlings to be a child’s very first exposure to the performing arts, and the first step in cultivating a lifelong love of the performing arts. We’ve featured various performers for our Seedlings program, including local favorite Katherine Dines with Hunk-Ta-Bunk-Ta, the Colorado Ballet, and Top Hogs (who have made an appearance on America’s Got Talent!). Being involved in the arts has long been proven to be beneficial in multiple areas, and our youngest audiences can perhaps benefit the most from this exposure. Early arts exposure helps boost cognitive development, communication skills, emotional development, behavioral health, and other areas of development. It can also help to foster a lifelong love and interest in the performing arts. In addition to helping with the child’s development, it also provides an opportunity for children to socialize with others and strengthen social bonds. At only $3 per ticket, Seedlings is a fun and affordable way to introduce your child to the arts. We hope to welcome you and your little one as a patron soon!

The Lone Tree Arts Center is proud to showcase the work of local Colorado artists. Each year, four different art exhibitions line the walls of our lobby: the Lone Tree Art Expo, the Exploring the Light Photo Show, and two Commissioners’ Choice shows. Here’s a closer look at each of these exhibitions.
The Lone Tree Art Expo
Exploring the Light Photo Show
Presented by the City of Lone Tree and the Lone Tree Arts Commission, the Art Expo runs from the start of the Arts Center’s performance season in midSeptember through mid-November. Categories in this juried exhibition include painting, drawing, watercolor, sculpture, and mixed media. Prize money is awarded to the first and second place winners in each category, as well as the Best of Show winner and the winner of the Commissioners’ Choice award selected by the City of Lone Tree Arts Commission.
This photo competition, presented by the Lone Tree Photography Club and the Lone Tree Arts Commission, runs from mid-March through mid-May annually. The categories each year include landscape, wildlife/animals, and abstract, along with two to three rotating categories selected by the Lone Tree Photography Club’s board members. Some of these previous categories have included astrophotography, architecture, black and white, human element, and macro.
Following the initial exhibition, the firstplace winners of each category along with the Best of Show and Commissioners’ Choice winners are invited to showcase another five to six pieces of work in the Best of Show, which runs an additional six to eight weeks.

The show’s juror, also selected by the Lone Tree Photography Club board, awards first, second, and third place in every category, as well as Best of Show. Similar to the Art Expo, the first and second place winners in each category and the Best of Show winner are invited to showcase additional works at Lone Tree Arts Center for several weeks following the Photo Show.

VISUAL ART AT LTAC Commissioners’ Choice Presented by the City of Lone Tree’s Arts Commission, this exhibition is held twice per year—from January through early-March and again in mid-July through early-September. The program is an artist invitational providing a unique opportunity for a single emerging or professional Colorado-based artist to fill the walls of the Lone Tree Arts Center exclusively with their work. The Arts Commission is particularly excited about their next exhibition featuring the prolific work of the late Joellyn T. Duesberry. “The upcoming exhibit of Joellyn Duesberry’s art will be outstanding,” notes Larry Lovelace, Chair of the Arts Commission. “She was an internationally-recognized artist of landscape oil paintings from around the world. Her inspiration came from the vistas, waters, and mountains, many located in Colorado. Her often quirky interpretation of Colorado scenes are outstanding.” Joellyn T. Duesberry: A Painter’s Path runs from January 8th through March 9th, 2020, with an opening reception held at the Lone Tree Arts Center on Saturday, January 18th from 6:00–7:30pm.

Gallery Hours The Lone Tree Arts Center Gallery is open during Box Office hours—10:00am to 4:00pm Monday through Friday—and two hours before any public performance at the Arts Center. All artwork is available for purchase from the LTAC Box Office. Interested in showcasing your art at the Lone Tree Arts Center? All calls for entry are posted on callforentry.org.
