Backyard Renaissance presents "Abigail's Party," a play by Mike Leigh and directed by Rosina Reynolds. This darkly comic tale on the outskirts of London in the 1970s has been described as the cocktail party from hell and the gathering gone wrong. About the play: "We’re not here to hold conversations, we are here to enjoy ourselves.” So declares the hostess with the mostest Beverly. A working-class girl in 1970s England completely obsessed with appearances, what’s “in”, and having a good time no matter the cost, Beverly only wants what’s best for everyone as long as what’s best is based on Beverly. With an intimate gathering of neighborhood acquaintances, she mixes the cocktails, stirs the scandals, and shakes the sensibilities of their quiet suburban life with unintended consequences. Join us on opening night on Saturday, February 26 at 8 p.m. at Tenth Avenue Arts Center.

Artists and Repertoire: Rafael Payare, conductor Marc-André Hamelin, piano Richard Wagner: Prelude & Liebestod from Tristan und Isolde Franz Liszt: Piano Concerto No. 2 in A Major Johannes Brahms: Symphony No. 1 in C minor, Op. 68 About the program: The exquisitely romantic Second Piano Concerto by Liszt is performed by the great Lisztian, Marc-André Hamelin, whom the New York Times hailed as “A performer of near-superhuman technical prowess.” Music Director Rafael Payare leads the Orchestra in Brahms’ Symphony No. 1, featuring one of the most famous openings in Romantic music, with the deep throbbing bass like a heartbeat, and a great arc of melody rising and falling — it seems so inevitable, so strong a way to begin this symphony. An additional performance takes place Thursday, Nov. 17 at The Shell. Related links: San Diego Symphony on Instagram San Diego Symphony on Facebook
