Jazz Night | Rhythms of the Americas
Friday, January 16 | Masonic Temple, Sag Harbor
Experience Rhythms of the Americas for one night only as Bill O’Connell (piano), Essiet Essiet (bass), Larry Bustamante (baritone sax), Juanga Lakunza (trombone), and Claes Brondal (drums/MC) deliver deep swing, lush horn lines, and high-energy Afro-Caribbean rhythm. One stage. One night. Pure musical fire. Don’t miss it.

The Sherman Players proudly present Brad Blake’s gloriously “naughty” holiday revue “Wreck the Halls” weekends through December 20 at Sherman Playhouse, 5 Route 39 North (just behind the Sherman Firehouse), in Sherman, Connecticut.

Nothing is sacred in this “slay” ride of adult humor that rips the shiny bows and pretty wrapping off the holiday season. The show features two acts of original music-filled satire and burlesque that turn the last quarter of the calendar belly up. And audiences should be warned – they’ll never look at Kris Kringle the same way again!

“Wreck the Halls” plays November 28, 29, December 5, 6, 12, 13, 19 and 20 at 8:00 PM on Fridays and Saturdays. There will be three 2:00 PM Sunday matinees on November 30, December 7 and 14.

Warning: Due to adult humor, “Wreck the Halls” is not recommended for the younger elves!

Tickets are $30 for adults and $15 for students (with ID) and may be purchased online at www.ticketleap.events/events/shermanplayers.
