Artistic Director, Hunter Foster has announced Redhouse Arts Center's 2020-21 Main Stage Season featuring several Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award winning productions that are sure to delight audiences of all ages. With every production this season, Redhouse will utilize its versatile theatre space to treat audiences to a thrilling theatre experience. 'We found our audiences really loved the intimacy of our productions, as they did with our musical, Rent', stated Foster. 'Having the actors so close to the audience really elevated the story's emotional level. No other theatre in Central New York gives such an immersive experience to an audience the way Redhouse can, and we want to continue experimenting with our spaces for the 20/21 season', he concluded. Building on this year's success, Redhouse will offer five Main Stage shows with some productions offering an extended three week run.

Brooklyn indie-rock darlings Pom Pom Squad released their emotionally charged sophomore EP Ow last year and today are sharing their first new music of 2020 -- a vibrant bubble-grunge love song “Red With Love” just in time for Valentine's Day. Debuted on Paste Magazine, the dazzling video was filmed at Brooklyn DIY space The Baumann and NYC venue The Dance -- it was one of the last videos shot there before its scheduled closing on February 18, 2020. Lead singer/guitarist Mia Berrin explains the track: “'Red' is my first proper love song and a pretty unguarded look into my heart, my relationship anxiety, and my acceptance of my own queerness. The first time I walked into The Dance, I was so inspired. I knew it was the perfect place to capture the feel of this song. I'm sad to see it go.”
