On Saturday, September 20 at 7:30 p.m., internationally acclaimed jazz vocalist and peace advocate Sacha Boutros will debut "Paris After Dark" at the Baker-Baum Concert Hall, The Conrad Prebys Performing Arts Center. The concert launches the new "Music Without Borders" series with an evening that celebrates 100 years of French and American music. Audiences will be transported from La Jolla to the heart of Paris through a repertoire spanning jazz, chanson, and international pop, from Cole Porter to Serge Gainsbourg. Boutros will be joined by Parisian trumpet legend Stéphane Belmondo and an ensemble of world-class musicians for this special CD release concert. “This concert is a love letter to Paris and to humanity,” says Boutros. “In a time when the world feels divided, music reminds us we share a common language, one that heals and unites.” Through her nonprofit, Sacha’s Supper Club, Boutros turns concerts like "Paris After Dark" into fundraisers that directly support music education in Barrio Logan, San Ysidro, and Tijuana. This mission reflects a family legacy of cultural service, inspired by her grandmother Lupe Cázares, founder of San Ysidro Health Centers. Continuing that tradition, Boutros also works on cross-border art projects such as "A Place Where Soles Meet," a unity mural at the San Ysidro border. Sacha Boutros on Facebook / Instagram

Theater Night: “Stupeur et tremblements” (Fear and trembling) Gripping stage performance based on Amélie Nothomb’s bestselling novel Grand Prix du Roman de l'Académie Française 1999 – Éditions Albin Michel Adapted, Staged and Interpreted by Layla Metssitane Play in French with English subtitles. (75 min) About the “Stupeur et tremblements” (Fear and trembling): Winter 1990. In Brussels, Amélie Nothomb has finished her studies in medieval roman philology. She decides to travel back to Japan in order to work, a country she knows since she was born there. She gets a one year work contract for the Yumimoto company. This job, more than she hope for, will bring her many surprises, from which she will learn various lessons... The main character is, of course, Amélie Nothomb herself, who writes autobiographically. Fear and trembling is a humble, funny and intelligent point of view from a young woman confronted to a new world. The message it carries could be : Let’s observe and listen carefully, before we hastily judge the Other. The play is part of the French Literature and Arts Festival organized by the Alliance Française San Diego (AFSD).
