The Salina Symphony meets Jazz in this high-energy performance of genre-defying works. We will literally kick things off with music from the Tony Award-winning musical Cabaret followed by two new works by Kyle Saulnier, a multi-instrumentalist and composer who fuses American music with industrial rock. Singer Janie Brokenicky and dancer Alison Hiatt will tell the story of Kurt Weill’s The Seven Deadly Sins, an accessible and satirical tale that uses wit, theatrical flair, dancing, cabaret music and a Greek chorus to explore the complexities of human nature and society.

After more than three decades as the lead singer and guitarist for Barenaked Ladies, Ed Robertson has a routine when it comes time to start writing songs for a new album. "I tend to get ideas while I'm driving up to my lake house," he says. "I record voice memos along the way, and then I listen back and try to make sense of them and mix and match the various ideas I've come up with. On a typical drive, I'm happy if I get six or seven — eight ideas would be a good drive.

From the creators of #IMOMSOHARD, Jen and Kristin are heading out on a Fall Tour, with a brand new show: LADIES NIGHT! Guaranteed to make you laugh, and maybe pee your pants, these two dive-in to all things womanhood, motherhood and friendship. There are new things to talk about and some old things to talk about in new ways like surviving marriage, fashion, and the tween-teen years. These two may be older but they are only getting better. Or bitter. Let's go with better. "Let's all get together and find a way to laugh at the stuff the usually makes us cry." This show is rowdy, raucous and a little bit naughty. Get a group of your lady friends, or fly solo, you can even bring your husband (make sure he sits in the front row) and get ready to laugh. #IMOMSOHARD LIVE: LADIES NIGHT! is the night you need and deserve.
