A Stunning production of the fairytale Declared his best work by Tchaikovsky himself, Sleeping Beauty is one of the repertoire's most brilliant and beguiling works, and what better way to experience the shimmering fairytale than in this production from the esteemed State Ballet Theatre of Ukraine? Choreographed after Marcus Petipa, join the internationally acclaimed company as they invite you into the enchanted world of a princess cursed to eternal sleep and the prince who must battle through evil to save her. What is the story? Set to Tchaikovsky's spine-tingling score, the beloved story opens with the christening of Princess Aurora. As the fairies bestow their gifts upon her, Carabosse, an evil fairy who did not receive an invite to the celebrations, enters and places a curse on the newborn babe. The curse foretells the death of the princess on her 16th birthday after pricking her finger on the spindle of a spinning wheel. Luckily, a kind-hearted fairy who had not yet blessed the young monarch softens the spell, and although the king and queen do everything in their power to destroy all spinning wheels and keep their daughter safe, she still pricks her finger but falls into a deep, thousand-year sleep instead. Only her true love's kiss could break her supernatural slumber...

A gothic tale of obsession between a haunted young woman and the terrifying vampire infatuated with her, causing untold horror in its wake. Robert Eggers (The Witch, The Lighthouse) returns with this remake of the classic horror tale starring Bill Skarsgard, Lily-Rose Depp and Willem Dafoe.

Tolliver is the son of a preacher, but his music is anything but holy. His songs are a gumbo of soul, funk, pop and camp, as funny as they are soul-baring. His recent EP 'Daddyland' is about reconnecting with his late father via the astral plane, and realizing that he has more in common with his devout-yet-very-flawed father than he ever knew. The LA-via-Chicago singer is a dance floor demon. He marries a Midwest work ethic with a never-ending love of parties and poppin off, and those conflicting desires drive his creativity. He makes pop records with frank lyrics about redemption and relapse, and twerking at the altar of one's mind. Daddyland was recently in KCRW's top 10 albums, with each song from the project in steady rotation. He's been compared to everyone from War to Al Green to Andre 3000, an ethereal-yet-gritty soul survivor. In February of 2022 Tolliver made his late-night television debut performing his single ?Say What? on The Late Late Show with James Corden. This past summer Tolliver embarked on his first ever west coast tour to support the LP, played a monthly residency at The Echo and headlined KCRW?s SUMMER NIGHTS series in Los Angeles and in December opened up for the indie electronic band CHK CHK CHK on their west coast run. He was a featured festival artist at the 2023 OUTLOUD WeHo Pride Concert Event and one of a few LGBTQ Artists to Discover at the 2023 Pride Festivals all across the states by UPROXX. Tolliver was also highlighted in the July 2023 edition of the STORM report -- a monthly selection of 20 artists that have been handpicked as proven indicators of artists on the verge on greatness. Tolliver?s recently co-produced and co-wrote the song BOOYABAZE that was featured on the past season of ABBOTT ELEMENTARY. He is currently the DJ & Musical Director for NPR?s THE MIDDLE.
