Glimmer, Glimmer & Shine

Synopsis:
In the 1950s, twin brothers Martin and Daniel Glimmer, along with Eddie Shine, briefly formed the "Glow-in-the-dark" trumpet section of Glimmer, Glimmer & Shine. In 1955, on the seeming brink of success, Daniel Glimmer abruptly quit the music business and cut off all contact with his brother, Martin. Thirty-five years later, Martin's protege, Jordan Shine (Eddie's son), meets Delia Glimmer at a wedding in Greenwich, Connecticut. She is Daniel's daughter, works for her parents' very successful garment business, yet knows nothing of his past, nor even of her Uncle Martin's existence. Jordan brings Delia to meet her uncle, and she is shocked to find him in failing health and living in the squalor of a five-story walkup. When Martin falls into a coma, she confronts her Father and asks him to help. He refuses but finally relents on the condition Delia stay away from Jordan. Delia and Jordan begin their romance shortly thereafter. Martin recovers but is physically unable to return to his walkup. Delia and Jordan shame Daniel into loaning Martin his corporate pied-a-terre. Daniel makes no effort to hide his disdain for Martin and his life. When Daniel learns of the budding romance, he squashes it by revealing to Jordan that Delia is engaged to someone else. She flees to Martin for answers to the emerging questions about her family. Martin, his health in steep decline, decides to tell Delia the truth. She is stunned to learn how, thirty-five years later, the aftershocks of choices made and secrets long buried reverberate not just for Marty and Danny but for Jordan and herself.

Persephone

Synopsis:
This is a collaboration between Ridge theater ensemble and three exceptional contributors from across various disciplines. In this multimedia production, which centers around a 19th century theater troupe, the mythology surrounding the Greek character of Persephone - the beautiful and doomed daughter of Zeus and Demeter who was abducted by Hades into the Underworld - is explored though songs, narrative, projections, and instrumental music. the title character is played by film and theater actress Julia Stiles. Warren Leight - Tony award winner for Side Man - wrote the book, which highlights the Persephone myth's ability to illuminate ideas about gender, power, loss, mysticism, and the natural world in different ways during different eras. the music is a collaboration between composer/performer Ben Neill and vocalist/songwriter Mimi Goese, who also plays Demeter, and combines samples of works by 19th century composers with the sounds of contemporary rock and electronica.

Side Man

Synopsis:
Set in 1953 and traveling to 1985, this lovely and poignant memory play unfolds through the eyes of Clifford, the only son of Gene, a jazz trumpet player, and Terry, an alcoholic mother. alternating between their New York City apartment and a smoke-filled music club, Clifford narrates the story of his broken family and the decline of jazz as popular entertainment. Clifford recalls the key moments in his life, such as the day when he, fresh out of college, picked up his first unemployment check and was congratulated by Gene and his band mates. Gene's music career on the big band circuit ultimately crumbles with the advent of Elvis and rock-n-roll. Terry begs him to get a nine-to-five job to support the family, but Gene refuses to enter the "straight world" of regular paychecks, mortgages and security. For Gene, who knows jazz better than his own son, music is not just a job; it's his life. their marriage slowly dissolves and young Clifford is witness to it all. as things worsen, Clifford assumes the role of parent and throws the hopeless Gene out of his mother's apartment. When an adult Clifford visits Gene in a rundown jazz club after years of separation, he requests that the old man play his mother's favorite song, the old standard "Why was I Born?" Clifford then asks, "Dad, why was I born?" It becomes Clifford's last, heart-breaking plea for his father's love.
