OUR UPCOMING PERFORMANCE: PICCADILLY (1929)
In Spring 2024, we are excited to be exploring the life of Anna May Wong with students, faculty, and community members. We are reading Dr. Yunte Huang’s biography of her Daughter of the Dragon, culminating with a lecture by the author on April 3rd.
About the Performance:
DATE AND TIME: April 16, 2024 at 6:30 PM
PLACE: FRICK FINE ARTS AUDITORIUM
To showcase Piccadilly, the Center has partnered with the local, popular band Appalasia. Appalasia creates new compositions with traditional Asian and folk instruments. Formed by Mimi Jong, Jeff Berman, and Sue Powers in Pittsburgh, PA, Appalasia has created an evocative and ambitious performance language for dulcimer, erhu, banjo, and vocals. The group relies on the influence of their folk roots to produce original composition and inspired improvisation.
