Synopsis:
Faced with the news of her impending demise, Myra is trying for once to be
the model home-maker, wife, and mother, turning her household topsy-turvy
as she sets her sights on a few domestic tasks to complete before she
leaves…like arranging every last detail of her own funeral and
relentlessly trying to force her fractured family to communicate with each
other. In Laura Wade's funny and moving comedy-drama, Myra, her
mild-mannered husband and quirky daughters set off on a whirlwind journey
of surprise, exasperation, and discovery just as Myra's own lifetime
passage is winding down to its final destination.
Starring Judith Light, Brian Murray, Sarah Paulson, Lily Rabe, directed by
Abigail Morris.

Performances in a Contemporary Space in conjunction with the Baruch

A burgeoning relationship between NYMVAE and BPAC led to the development
of the Concert Series. Elizabeth Falk, NYMVAE’s Executive Director, stated
"Our previous experiences working with the BPAC have been rewarding and we
are delighted to return to BPAC’s Engleman Recital Hall. We are confident
that this is the next step in a continued successful partnership for
building new audiences and new opportunities for classical performance."
1. On September 12, the concert series begins with El Quijote to Tango
featuring Ko Kaiden’s vocal talents and skill with the instrumental oboe
and English horn. Pablo Zinger will accompany on piano. Since 2001, Kaiden
and Zinger have collaborated on a repertory of Spanish Art songs and, more
recently, Kaiden has expanded the Spanish repertoire to include Carlos
Gardel and Astor Piazzolla’s tangos.
2. On October 3, soprano, and founding member of NYMVAE, Leonora J.D.
McClernan will honor Filipino American History month with Babalík sa
Pinanggalingán: One Filipina American’s Journey in Song.
3. Mezzo soprano Joyce Tannian’s versatility allows her to feel at home in
operatic repertoire as well as in cabaret and jazz. On November 7, with
Jorge Parodi accompanying her on piano, Ms. Tannian will perform a concert
titled Echoes Awake.
4. And to conclude the calendar year, NYMVAE will present a seasonal
concert on December 5 with Holiday Concert: Winter Wonderland.
