Music lives within history—and it also creates its own. As SummerFest marks its 40th year, this season explores both: composers responding to the world around them, and the turning points that reshaped the course of music itself. From works born in moments of upheaval to rediscoveries, landmark commissions, and bold new collaborations, SummerFest celebrates the past—and the new chapters we continue to write. Part of our Synergy Series, this boundary-crossing opening night blends music, storytelling, and theatrical narration in a fast-moving journey through history. Legendary actor Simon Callow joins festival artists for a vivid time-travel adventure—from medieval chant to modern revolution—where each piece becomes a portal to a defining moment in the story of music.

But behind the scenes, things get even stranger. Nearly all cephalopod females mate with multiple males and can store sperm for weeks to months. That means each female carries a tiny archive of potential fathers. So the big question becomes: when everyone is competing for a spot in that archive, how do cephalopod females decide who to mate with, and can they control whose sperm ultimately fertilizes their eggs? About the Speaker Theodora is a PhD student in Marine Biology at Scripps Institution of Oceanography, UC San Diego. Prior to starting at SIO, Theodora researched chronic reproductive pain conditions in New York, created marine science multimedia as a science communication intern at Point Reyes National Seashore, and studied cephalopod neuroethology as a research intern at Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology. Theodora currently studies the evolutionary and behavioral dynamics of female choice in cephalopods, with a focus on local California market squid. When she’s not doing research or underwater, Theodora can usually be found listening to or singing classical music. Fleet Science Center on Facebook / Instagram

"Morris Micklewhite and the Tangerine Dress" is a joyful and imaginative story about creativity, courage, and being true to yourself. Morris is a thoughtful, artistic child who loves painting, music, and exploring the world through his imagination. At school, he begins to encounter rigid ideas about who is allowed to express themselves in certain ways, leaving him feeling confused, hurt, and alone. As those pressures grow, Morris retreats into vibrant inner worlds filled with safari animals, outer space adventures, and dazzling dreams. Through vivid visuals, music, movement, and fantasy, the story follows Morris as he learns to listen to his heart and reclaim his sense of joy and confidence. Supported by a loving parent and guided by his own imagination, Morris discovers that self-expression is something to celebrate, not hide. This Theatre for Young Audiences production invites children and families to reflect on empathy, bravery, and the power of creative self-expression. Based on the beloved children’s book by Christine Baldacchino and illustrated by Isabelle Malenfant, our production is designed for young audiences and performed by professional adult actors. Join Morris on an immersive journey of self-expression, creativity, and imagination as he discovers the joy of being true to himself. EUSD students receive 3 FREE tickets!
