August Wilson's Ma Rainey's Black Bottom
Directed by Rico Bruce Wade
A Blues-Infused American Classic
It’s 1927 in a Chicago recording studio, where legendary blues singer Ma Rainey arrives ready to lay down tracks on her own terms. As tensions rise between Ma, her band, and the white producers controlling the session, ambition, pride, and exploitation collide in a room thick with heat and history. August Wilson’s searing masterpiece is a powerful exploration of race, art, and the cost of claiming your voice in a world determined to silence it.

New York native Aries Spears has always been a force to be reckoned with. His quick wit, charisma and ferociously aggressive style of comedy have earned him critical acclaim, accolades, and above all, a busy schedule. From being a regular on Fox’s Mad TV, starring in feature films, appearing on a number of national talk shows, and continually touring the country, Aries’ talents are widespread, having just surpassed 3 million streams on Pandora – and his podcast is rated one of the highest in the US.
As a principal cast member on Fox’s hit sketch comedy show Mad TV, Aries thrived, bringing a fresh, hip style to the already-edgy program from the third through the tenth season. The producers made full use of many of Aries’ talents by calling on him frequently to create new hilarious characters and write sketches.
Some of the many recurring characters that Aries made famous on the show include:
Jesse Jackson, Mike Tyson, Shaquille O'Neal, The Klumps, Michael Jackson, Sisqo, Evander Holyfield, and plenty more.…

Jesse McCartney has always had a voice that could stop time. And, in 2026, he isn’t standing still—he’s following the current of what’s next. With new music in circulation, a renewed wave of touring momentum, and a profound personal shift into fatherhood, McCartney is in an era defined by emotional gravity and creative freedom.
Building on the success of his critically acclaimed independent EP All’s Well and its sold-out national tour, McCartney has reemerged as a powerful live force. His fall run, The Weightless Tour, launched September 30 in Washington, D.C. and ran through mid-November, bridging fan-favorite classics with dreamier recent material and introducing a deeper emotional lens to his performances. That momentum carried into a special reunion with the Jonas Brothers, during which McCartney joined the famous trio as a surprise guest at stadium shows including MetLife Stadium and Fenway Park. The chemistry was so strong that he was invited to join their tour immediately after he completed the…

Little River Band was formed in Melbourne, Australia in 1975. It was originally a blend of musicians who had enjoyed success in other Australian acts – but their new focus was to get airplay on American radio, and they achieved that goal with good songwriting, powerful vocals, and guitar harmonies. They immediately claimed their place as one of the great vocal bands of the ‘70s and ‘80s. And now, LRB celebrated its 50th Anniversary in 2025, and their calendar is filling up fast, with 75 shows booked – including a trip to New Zealand, where, per capita, the band has sold more albums and CDs than any other territory.
Between 1976 and 1983, chart success in America included the following singles: It’s a Long Way There, Help Is on Its Way, Happy Anniversary, Reminiscing, Lady, Cool Change, Lonesome Loser, The Night Owls, Take It Easy On Me, Man On Your Mind, We Two, and The Other Guy. Worldwide album and CD sales now top 30 million. LRB also set a Billboard record in 1982 for having Top 10 US hits for 6 consecut…

#IMOMSOHARD began as a popular web series by real-life best friends, comedians, and moms Kristin Hensley and Jen Smedley. One night, over a glass of wine and some tears of frustration, these two friends decided to tell a different kind of story. With a camera, two husbands, a babysitter, and bottomless mimosas, Kristin and Jen decided to speak openly about their fears and failures – and to prove that the only way to survive motherhood is through laughter and friendship. The video was a smash hit, sparking an online community of two million highly engaged followers. This was exactly what they’d suspected all along, and now they’d found validation – moms and women everywhere need to laugh and be heard.
Kristin and Jen went on to create weekly videos about everything related to womanhood and motherhood: hemorrhoids, nipple hair, sex after marriage, mom bods, Spanx, wedding dresses, and swimsuits. (Yes, they even wore them on camera.) The videos have received nearly 300 million views worldwide in just five years…

Dokken exploded out of the heavy metal scene in Los Angeles in the early 1980s. Their debut album, which included “Breaking the Chains” as its catchy title track, set the stage for Dokken becoming the most dominant creative and commercial force in the world of melodic hard rock for the next several years. Albums like Tooth and Nail, Under Lock and Key, and Back for the Attack all became certified multi-platinum selling smashes. Songs like "Alone Again," "Just Got Lucky,""Burning like a Flame," and "Heaven Sent" are still regarded among the genre’s finest.
The band has survived and kept their loyal fans in a time when people's tastes change almost hourly, and they have been embraced by a whole new generation of rock fans. They recently played at the Bang Your Head Festival in Germany, as well as Rambling Man in England, where they received rave reviews.
