One man. One year. One chance to change America. 1964 was a pivotal year in American history and Lyndon Baines Johnson sat at the center of it all. A master politician with towering ambition and ruthless tactics, the conflicted Texan will do whatever it takes to get the Civil Rights bill passed and secure his re-election. Meanwhile, in faraway Vietnam, a troublesome conflict looms. The winner of the 2014 Tony Award for Best Play, this gripping drama captures the critical moment that marked the end of an era and the shift to the political climate of today. Go all the way with LBJ, Martin Luther King, Jr., J. Edgar Hoover, Hubert Humphrey and more in this action-packed, electrifying portrayal of one of the most tumultuous times in our country’s history.

Performances Wednesday – Saturday at 8 p.m., Sunday at 3 p.m. A special weekday matinee is scheduled on Wednesday, March 29 at 2 p.m.

The Tony Award-winning Broadway musical Carousel is a powerful ride of hope and tears. With stunning choreography and breathtaking music, Carousel was Rodgers and Hammerstein’s personal favorite of all their musicals, and was dubbed “the Best Musical of the 20th Century” by Time magazine. From the magical evocation of the carousel in the overture to the majestic and moving strains of the immortal song “You’ll Never Walk Alone,” this giant of the musical stage remains timeless and star bright. The poignant and heartbreaking story of the faithful Julie and her brutish husband Billy is one of the most powerful books in musical theatre history and perfectly matches its extraordinary score with the memorable songs “If I Loved You,” “June is Bustin’ Out All Over,” and Billy Bigelow’s famous “Soliloquy.”

City Theatre and GableStage are proud to co-present a one night only performance of Leslie Ayvazian’s new one-woman show, Mention My Beauty, on Monday, February 13 at 7:30 p.m. Ayvazian, whose plays are often produced at City Theatre’s Summer Shorts Festival, first performed a preview of the piece at CityWrights 2015. Since then, she has developed and performed Mention My Beauty at New York’s Ensemble Studio Theatre and Cherry Lane Theatre, creating a show based on her own provocative, touching and hilarious coming of age during the 60’s and 70’s. Engaging, irreverent and timely, Mention My Beauty is also a revealing showcase for an extraordinary performer who has been seen on Broadway, off-Broadway, television and regional stages. City Theatre, which is committed to new work and its extended family of playwrights locally and nationwide, is very pleased to bring Ayvazian back to Miami for audiences to enjoy the play and performance that developed from those first pages.

City Theatre is happy to be partnering with GableStage for this event. Joe Adler, Producing Artistic Director of the company, has once again generously offered his theatre to audiences who appreciate an evening of new work in its intimate space. The performance is free, but seating is limited. Following the performance there will be a talkback discussion.

Action-Packed, High-Flying Mexican Wrestling will be fighting in Miami on October 16th at Bank United Center. Come see the amazing “Lucha Libre” presented by Warrior Fight Federation (WFF). This is a Pro Wrestling event for the entire Family, get your tickets today at http://bit.ly/LuchaLibreEnMiami

In case you don’t know much about Lucha Libre, here are some specifics
“La Lucha Libre” is characterized by colorful masks, rapid sequences of holds, maneuvers and unparalleled acrobatic skills. It is similar in many ways to the form of wrestling that inspired it — American professional wrestling. Both forms are full of colorful characters and outlandish story lines, and the rules in both types are very flexible and loosely enforced. In fact, lucha libre translates to “free fighting.

The most obvious thing that sets lucha libre apart is that almost every major Mexican wrestling star wears a mask and doesn’t use his real name. “La mascara” plays an important part of the storyline, and can also provide some anonymity in a country enthralled by the sport of Mexican wrestling. Therefore its following, both in Mexico and other countries, has made it the most popular sport after soccer in a country of 100 million people, and an integral part of pop culture.

So you are invited to live the experience true Lucha Libre and see the finest and most daring spectacle. An event recommended by Mexicanos en Miami. Learn more about WFF at http://www.warriorfightfederation.com/

Alexander knows it is going to be a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day when he wakes up with gum in his hair, and he is right. Things only get worse as the day goes on: his best friend bails on him, there’s no dessert in his lunch bag, there’s lima beans for dinner and kissing on TV! The only reasonable response is to move to Australia. Judith Viorst adapted her own award-winning children’s book into this marvelous musical that is wacky, wild, and wonderfully wise.

Cost: Prices vary

Millions around the world are tuning into what will be the most remarkable Summer Olympic Games yet. On Friday, August 5th at 4:30 p.m., JohnMartin’s Restaurant and Irish Pub will kick off their Brazilian-themed “Premiere Party” for the highly anticipated 2016 Rio Olympics. Watch the must-see Opening Ceremony streaming live from all seven of their TVs, while wearing a Carnival mask, sipping caipirinhas and eating Coxhina and Pastels. And if you look like the famed Brazilian model, Gisele Bundchen, now’s your time to win prizes!
JohnMartins will be the perfect place to watch and celebrate your favorite athletes. Guests will also be able to enjoy a selection of Brazilian cuisine and the hypnotic rhythm of a Brazilian dancer during the Olympic premiere party.
The evening festivities will begin just prior to NBC’s scheduled telecast of the event at the world-famous futbol (soccer) Maracaña Stadium in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Guests at JohnMartin’s will have the chance to order the national cocktail of Brazil, called las caipirinhas, which is made with cachaça, sugar, and lime. “We’re trying to get as close to Rio as possible, without having to buy a plane ticket. We anticipate it being a night of celebration and unity, as the world comes together in respect and honest competition,” said Martin Lynch, co-owner with John Clarke. “This event is a great opportunity to experience the hype of cheering for your country amongst a fun and friendly crowd.”
The 2016 Rio Olympics Opening Ceremony will be an artistic spectacle, including more than 6,000 volunteers, and will feature welcome remarks by dignitaries, the Parade of Nations, and the final leg of the torch relay before the Olympic cauldron is lit. The last torchbearer is a closely guarded secret during the months-long journey from Olympia, Greece to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. It might even be soccer legend Edson Arantes do Nascimento, known as Pelé, but it will remain a mystery until the show begins. This celebration of Brazilian culture and world nations can’t be missed.
JohnMartin’s has been continually recognized for its delicious cuisine and voted “Best Pub Food.” The restaurant has Trivia Night on Thursdays at 8 p.m. and Karaoke on Friday at 10 p.m. On Saturdays, guests can expect contemporary top 40 hits to rock to today’s popular Irish ballads and Sundays the restaurant serves brunch and hosts an Open Mic Night for aspiring singers at 8 p.m. JohnMartin’s is located at 253 Miracle Mile in Coral Gables.

More than just another gallery, Imago Art in Action create and introduce an all-in-one multipurpose concept of cultural space with a purpose of contributing to growth and human development through the promotion of visual and fine arts and literature and committed to making inspiring experiences out of artistic expressions.

Ever since Miami´s cultural life began booming, the city seems friendlier and more humane to this kind of initiatives. Made up by Marlene Lebrun, Juanita Antonorsi, Raúl Lira, Thais Marquina and Trina Oropeza; a group of Venezuelan entrepreneurs specialized in many areas of arts and culture with more than 30 years of experience, which they´ve used to set the basis of this new cultural proposal.

This all-in-one space, designed for the growth and amusement of each as a unique and social individual, offers children and adults the possibility of enjoying art and literature while channeling talents and gaining knowledge, making it a great contribution to the city.

The center includes two areas from the world of arts -Visual Arts and Hispanic-American literature- into four vital spaces for its functioning: The Gallery, The Library, The Workshops and The Designer-Objects Store.

“ON” the opening exhibition.

“ON” has been established as the first exhibition which Imago “Art in Action” will use to formally open its cultural center; Marisela Chivico, who is responsible for the text, said: “When a new space that is allocated to disseminate culture and to facilitate the merging of reflection and enjoyment of art emerges, a light and a flame are turned on; and so we thought it favorable to name our first project “ON”.

Chivico points out that “the showing is comprised of ten Venezuelan artists linked to speeches engraved in a diversity of interests, all related to contemporary art, with proposals that address and answer to current dynamics and aesthetics” Harry Abend, Pedro Terán, Nadia Benatar, Sigfredo Chacón, Vicente Antonorsi, Patricia Van Dalen, Isabel Cisneros, Javier León, Paulo Castro and Rafael Rangel will show the best of their small formats in an exhibit beginning April 6th through the end of July.
