Barbara Randall Presents “Decoding the National Archives Online - What’s available and how to search successfully.”

Undergraduate oboist Lexie Callaway-Cole will present a senior Bachelor of Music recital on Sunday, May 19, 2019 at 1:30 pm in Karl Geiringer Hall in the Music Building. Ms. Callaway-Cole will be joined by harpsichordist/pianist Dr. Natasha Kislenko (UCSB faculty member), bassoonist Jacob Fernandez, violinist Noelle Barr, violist James Chung, and cellist Britta Thomas. The program will include works by Benjamin Britten, Antonio Vivaldi, Gaetano Donizetti, and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Ms. Callaway-Cole is a student of UCSB faculty member Gabrielle Castriotta.

The New Works Lab presents bare bones developmental productions of half-hour scripted and devised plays. The program provides a simple 'fringe festival' level of technical and design support so that each work may evolve in content and structure through the final performance. Works are selected every November through an open application process. The process is supported by a weekly spring quarter class in which NWL student actors, designers, playwrights, directors, stage managers and publicists working on the productions convene with faculty and staff mentors to view and critique staged iterations of each work.

Performance Dates:

May 9, 10, 11, 16, 17, 18, 19, 2019 - 8:00pm

May 11, 18, 19, 2019 - 2:00pm
