Scandinavian American Theater Company (SATC) will present the US Premiere of BELOVED by acclaimed Swedish playwright Lisa Langseth. The play was originally produced in Stockholm starring Noomi Rapace (Girl With The Dragon Tattoo, Prometheus) and later adapted into the film Pure starring Alicia Vikander (The Danish Girl, Tomb Raider), which won the Swedish equivalent of the Academy Award for Best Screenplay. Translated by Charlotte Barslund and directed by Kathy Curtiss, previews begin August 4 at The Lion Theatre at Theatre Row. Opening night of this limited-run Off-Broadway engagement is slated for Wednesday, August 8.

Conducted by CSO Associate Conductor Peter Stafford Wilson, the Columbus All-City Orchestra will present a free, public concert on Sunday, March 2, at Mees Auditorium, Capital University, at 7pm. Now in its seventh year, the orchestra's 49 members are selected from musicians in grades 9-12 attending Columbus City Schools. The program is tuition free for students and is funded by Safelite AutoGlass, The Martha Holden Jennings Foundation, The Paul Duke Foundation, and the Morris and Emma Woodhull Fund of The Columbus Foundation.
