Kuumbwa Jazz and Santa Cruz Shakespeare Presents A WINTER'S TALE REMIX
A co-presentation by Kuumbwa Jazz and Santa Cruz Shakespeare, A Winter's Tale Remix is a melding of theatre and jazz. In this production, Shakespeare's The Winter's Tale receives a reimagining by Santa Cruz Shakespeare actor Tommy Gomez and the Le Boeuf Brothers, an acclaimed jazz ensemble with local roots. This co-presentation supports the nonprofit education programs of both Santa Cruz Shakespeare and Kuumbwa Jazz.
Kuumbwa Jazz provides opportunities for residents and visitors in the Santa Cruz area to enjoy and appreciate the full spectrum of jazz music through live performance and education - presenting extraordinary regional, national and international musicians and providing educational programs for people of all ages. Education has been fundamental to Kuumbwa's mission since its founding in 1975. The professional jazz artists and educators who participate in Kuumbwa's programs enlighten players and listeners at every skill and interest level.
Santa Cruz Shakespeare creates and strengthens community by bringing audiences and theater artists together to celebrate stories about our collective humanity.
