(www.whattimeisitmrfox.com), Why Are Those Girls SO LOUD it's cos we're jewish (http://girlssoloud.tumblr.com/), Molly Zenobia (www.mollyzenobia.com) Alexandra Day (http://www.alexandradaymusic.com/), UnAmerika's Sweetheart Karin Webb (www.unamerikassweetheart.com), and Jill Gibson (www.axe2ice.com)
DESCRIPTION:
What do you get when you cross colorful, shimmering indie pop with the dark, mysterious writings of Edgar Allan Poe? We're not sure either, but we're excited to find out!
During the month of October, Box Five will put together a concert in nearly every city Poe called home (Boston MA, New York NY, Philadelphia PA, Baltimore MD, and Richmond, VA), inviting both local and nationally-touring ensembles to perform new, specially-composed musical works inspired by the author's short stories and poems, in addition to their regular repertoire.
At the end of each concert, the evening's ensembles will collaborate on a sewn-together musical performance of one of Poe's most famous poems, The Raven. Each act will set 3-6 of the stanzas to music, which will then be performed in sequential order as a whole, complete work.
A “dream within a dream” that had been floating through Box Five frontwoman Mary Bichner‘s head since 2009, the tour was finally made a reality through the collaborative efforts of jazz-pop chanteuse Alexandra Day and smoldering piano songstress Ms. Fridrich, who will be joining Box Five at nearly every concert.
The Boston edition of the tour will be held on Wednesday, October 5th @ 8:00pm (doors @ 7:30pm) at the historic Somerville Theatre (55 Davis Square, Somerville, MA 02144). Musical ensembles for the evening include Box Five, What Time is it Mr. Fox?, Why Are Those Girls SO LOUD it's cos we're jewish, Molly Zenobia, and Alexandra Day; along with special guest appearances by noted performance artists Karin Webb and Jill Gibson of Axe to Ice Productions.
Tickets will cost $11.00 for this all ages show ($10.00 + $1.00 theatre restoration fee), and can be obtained via the Somerville Theatre Box Office between 4pm and 8pm daily, or by visiting the official Somerville Theatre website (http://www.somervilletheatreonline.com/).
