With puppeteer Brad Shur of Paper Heart Puppets A series of captivating tales unfold through the magic of cardboard and the boundless power of imagination. With help from the audience, puppeteer Brad Shur takes the simplest of materials—plain cardboard shapes—and skillfully transforms them into an array of expressive and elaborate puppet characters. As each story develops, these characters move, interact, and surprise, proving that with a little creativity, even the most ordinary materials can become something extraordinary.

“Michael Wolff is one of the greatest musicians I have ever played with.”— Sonny Rollins, Saxophone Legend. Michael Wolff is a renowned jazz pianist, composer, and bandleader known for his virtuoso performances and innovative style. Recording with a hall of fame ranging from Cal Tjader to Cannonball Adderley, Sonny Rollins, Nancy Wilson (served as musical director), Christian McBride, Tony Williams, and more, Wolff has also appeared with the Thad Jones/Mel Lewis Orchestra, Duke Ellington Band, and Count Basie Orchestra. He has performed with and conducted 25+ symphony orchestras, including the Dallas Symphony, Fort Worth Symphony, Berlin Radio Orchestra, and Atlanta Symphony. He has been a featured soloist with the Memphis National Symphony and Pittsburgh Symphony. In 1989, Wolff began his tenure as the musical director on Arsenio Hall’s late-night talk show. This journey led to accompanying saxophonist and then-presidential candidate Bill Clinton, as well as backing giants like Ray Charles, B.B. King, Patti LaBelle, Whitney Houston, Chick Corea, Herbie Hancock, Al Green, and James Brown. In 2015, after a grueling battle with a rare cancer, Wolff fell into a coma, where the prognosis became grim. At one point, the doctor asked his wife if she’d signed a Do Not Resuscitate order. Through the haze of drugs and illness, Wolff lifted his head and growled: “Resuscitate me!” In his bestselling memoir, On That Note: a Memoir of Jazz, Tics, and Survival, Wolff details the journey of an outsider growing up with Tourette Syndrome to near death and triumph. Recipient of the BMI Music Award, Japan’s Gold Disc Award, and Hamptons International Film Festival’s award for best film score, Wolff has composed scores for many film and television projects, such as The Tic Code, Made Up, Dark Angel, Who’s the Man, The Naked Brothers Band, and Stella’s Last Weekend. Michael Wolff serves on the faculty at New York University and is a Yamaha/Bosendorf artist. https://www.michaelwolff.com/ |
