The Paul Taylor Dance Company returns to the David H. Koch Theater November 4–23, 2025, with World Premieres by Resident Choreographers Lauren Lovette and Robert Battle, and the New York Premiere of Hope Boykin’s How Love Sounds. The soundscape is as bold as the dancing — from jazz icons Ella Fitzgerald, Wycliffe Gordon, and Mahalia Jackson, to the orchestral sweep of Antonín Dvořák and John Adams, to pop classics by Patsy Cline, Stevie Wonder, Billy Joel, and Donna Summer. Alongside Taylor favorites Esplanade and Company B, the repertory features treasures including Speaking in Tongues, the Whitman-inspired Beloved Renegade, Offenbach Overtures, Scudorama, Troilus and Cressida (reduced), and Concertiana, Taylor’s final dance. Select performances feature live music performed by the Orchestra of St. Luke’s. Tickets start at $10 at boxoffice.dance.

The Rick McLaughlin trio returns for another innovative evening of jazz, starting out with a discussion/demonstration focusing on the inner language and creative process of jazz, followed by a set of standards and new music with his trio featuring Sheryl Bailey on guitar, Yoron Israel on drums, and Rick on bass. Joining Rick will be special guest and local trumpet phenom Richard Stanmeyer.

Lyric Theatre Company is bringing one of the longest-running shows in Broadway history to The Flynn MainStage this November.

Lyric Theatre Company’s production of A Chorus Line will be presented at The Flynn MainStage November 13 through 16, 2025, with matinees on Saturday and Sunday at 2:00 p.m. and evening performances Thursday through Saturday at 7:30 p.m.. Friday’s performance will feature an ASL translator for the hearing impaired.

A brilliantly complex fusion of song, dance, and authentic drama, A Chorus Line was instantly recognized as a classic, with one powerhouse number after another. Dive into the raw, emotional, and electric world of performers chasing their dreams as they navigate the vulnerability of putting yourself out there, the fear of rejection, and the need for validation, both on and off the stage, and of course, iconic dance numbers.

For tickets, call 802 86FLYNN, purchase online at flynnvt.org/Events/2025/11/lyric-a-chorus-line or visit the Flynn Box Office in downtown Burlington.

Lyric Theatre Company’s A Chorus Line is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals on behalf of Tams-Whitmark LLC.

Renowned mandolinists Matt Flinner and Joe K. Walsh unite for an evening of rich tone, intricate interplay, and masterful musicianship. Flinner, a National Banjo and Mandolin Champion celebrated for his genre-spanning compositions, joins Walsh, the acclaimed Berklee professor and boundary-pushing member of Mr Sun, for a dynamic performance that bridges bluegrass, jazz, and contemporary acoustic music. Experience two of the finest voices in modern string music in an intimate, unforgettable concert.

Bridge Street Theatre closes its bold 2025 Mainstage Season with one of the most beloved plays in modern American theatre: Ernest Thompson’s On Golden Pond, running November 13–23 on BST’s intimate “Priscilla” Mainstage at 44 West Bridge Street, Catskill. Directed by BST Co-Founder John Sowle, this production brings warmth, humor, and quiet reflection to Thompson’s contemporary classic about aging, memory, and forgiveness.

For decades, Norman and Ethel Thayer have spent their summers at a rustic lakeside cabin in Maine. But as Norman’s memory falters and their estranged daughter arrives with her fiancé and his teenage son, long-buried tensions resurface. What follows is a funny, tender, and deeply human story about love withheld, love rediscovered, and the courage it takes to forgive.

Suffused with humor and deep emotional resonance, On Golden Pond closes BST’s 2025 season on a note of grace. Performances run Thurs–Sat at 7:30 pm, Sun at 2:00 pm, with an additional 2:00 pm matinee on Saturday, Nov 22. Tickets are $30, $16 for students. Visit bridgest.org/on-golden-pond for details.

GivingTuesday was created as a simple idea: a day that encourages people to do good. It is an opportunity for people around the world to come together to thank, help, give, show kindness, and share what they have with those in need.
In that spirit of generosity, Lenox Library will collect donations of non-perishable food items, paper products, and personal health care items between November 1 and December 2. All donations will benefit the Lenox Food Pantry.
Plus, your donation will go even further! For every item donated, our friends at BIRCH Properties will contribute $1 to the Lenox Library Association, supporting library programs and collections.
That’s right — your donation can do double the good this GivingTuesday, December 2!
We hope you’ll join us in nourishing our community’s bellies and brains. Every act of generosity, no matter how small, makes a difference.

The Norman Rockwell Museum is honored to present a rare series of early twentieth century lighting advertisements by Norman Rockwell and fellow Golden Age illustrators Maxfield Parrish, N.C. Wyeth, Dean Cornwell, Stanley Arthurs, Worth Brehm, and Charles Chambers created for Edison Mazda Lamps, a division of the General Electric Company. These luminous, richly painted works were widely circulated in published advertisements through the 1920s and are on loan to the Museum for the first time through the generosity of GE Aerospace.
