Night at the Caravanseri: Tales of Wonder June 7, 2011

Join SummerStage on opening night for a collaboration unlike any other: an evening of music, dance, art and stories with legendary cellist Yo-Yo Ma, his internationally acclaimed Silk Road Ensemble, and NYC students. Former ballet star Damian Woetzel will direct this one-of-a-kind program featuring the chamber orchestra The Knights and actor Bill Irwin as the Innkeeper, with appearances by vocalist Bobby McFerrin, author Jhumpa Lahiri, jookin dancer Lil Buck and other surprise guests, as well as Silk Road Connect sixth graders from Edward Bleeker JHS 185, Frederick Douglass Academy III, Granville T. Woods MS 584, and PS/MS 161 Pedro Albizu Campos School.
