SUMMARY:“Ragtime: The Musical”
DESCRIPTION:This July\, the Hangar Theatre’s 2024 Mainstage season continues with “Ragtime: The Musical”—a timeless masterpiece that Time magazine has hailed as “a triumph for the stage.” Through its exploration of the lives of an enterprising Jewish immigrant\, a courageous Harlem pianist\, and a conflicted upper-class wife\, “Ragtime” celebrates the soaring sounds and can-do spirit of America at the dawn of the last century. \nBased on E. L. Doctorow’s sweeping novel\, “Ragtime” features music by Stephen Flaherty\, lyrics by Lynn Ahrens\, and a book by Terrence McNally. “Ragtime” is presented by the Hangar Theatre in association with FIM Flint Repertory Theatre\, whose Producing Artistic Director\, Michael Lluberes\, also serves as director for the Hangar production. \nThe opening performance will take place on Friday\, July 12\, at 7:30 p.m.\, preceded by a preview performance on Thursday\, July 11\, also at 7:30 p.m.; matinee and evening performances will run through Saturday\, July 20. On July 16\, members of the “Ragtime” cast and creative team will participate in a post-show “Tuesday Talkback” following the evening performance. \nThe stars of “Ragtime” include Ben Cherry (whose Broadway credits include “Indecent” and “Fiddler on the Roof”) as Tateh; Jaden Dominique (“The Color Purple\,” “Sister Act” Broadway national tour) as Sarah; Erin Davie (“Diana\,” “The Mystery of Edwin Drood\,” and “A Little Night Music” on Broadway) as Mother; Bill English (“Days of Wine and Roses” and “Anything Goes” on Broadway) as Father; and Clyde Voce (“The Color Purple”; “Sister Act” Broadway national tour) as Coalhouse Walker Jr. \nADDITIONAL INFO ABOUT THE PRODUCTION:\n“Ragtime” will take place indoors on the Hangar Theatre’s Niederkorn Stage. Please note: “Ragtime” is recommended for mature upper-elementary-aged children and older\, as the show contains strong language\, including the use of racial epithets\, and simulated violence. The production is the second in the Hangar’s 2024 Mainstage season\, which will conclude July 27–Aug. 3 with “Todd vs. the Titanic.” \nTICKET INFORMATION:\nTickets are available individually or as multi-ticket “FlexPass” subscriptions\, and there are many ways to save!

SUMMARY:Reaching Out / Reaching In: How to Send Hope to Imprisoned Writers
DESCRIPTION:Every day at the Durland Alternatives Library\, we see poetry’s power to bridge divides and foster radical hope\, and we want to share that with you! Prisoner Express – a project of the library – provides opportunities for incarcerated people of all genders to express themselves creatively and receive meaningful feedback. Over 400 incarcerated people participate in our poetry program – they send us their writing in hopes of being published in our semi-annual poetry anthology\, and look forward to receiving a friendly response from someone outside of the prison system. In this workshop\, library staff will read a few selected poems aloud\, then support participants as they write a response to someone whose work resonates. We have seen time and again how much this program benefits not only the incarcerated writers\, but the volunteers themselves. We hope you’ll join us!

SUMMARY:The Raging Erie: Life and Labor Along the Erie Canal
DESCRIPTION:Join professors Mark Ferrara and Roger Hecht for a conversation on the stories of the ordinary people who lived\, worked\, and died along the banks of the Erie Canal\, emphasizing the forgotten role of the poor and working class in this epochal transformation. \nAbout the Book \nThe completion of the Erie Canal in 1825 was a monumental achievement. Linking the Great Lakes to the Atlantic Ocean\, it transformed New York City into a hub of international trade\, drove the rise of industrial cities in once sparsely populated areas\, and accelerated the westward expansion of the United States. Yet few of the laborers who toiled along the canal shared in the prosperity it brought. \nMark S. Ferrara tells the stories of the ordinary people who lived\, worked\, and died along the banks of the canal\, emphasizing the forgotten role of the poor and working class in this epochal transformation. The Raging Erie chronicles the fates of the Native Americans whose land was appropriated for the canal\, the European immigrants who bored its route through the wilderness\, and the orphan children who drove draft animals that pulled boats around the clock. Ferrara also shows how the canal served as a conduit for the movement of new ideas and religions\, a corridor for enslaved people seeking freedom via the Underground Railroad\, and a spur for social reform movements that emerged in response to the poverty and suffering along its path. \nBrimming with vivid characters drawn from the underbelly of antebellum life\, The Raging Erie explores the social dislocation and untold hardships at the heart of a major engineering feat\, shedding light on the lives of the canallers who toiled on behalf of American expansion. \nAbout the Author \nMark S. Ferrara is professor of English at the State University of New York. His recent books include American Community: Radical Experiments in Intentional Living (2020) and Living the Food Allergic Life (2023).

SUMMARY:Leaves Falling Backwards
DESCRIPTION:About the Book \nOn December 28\, 2017 I was having a holiday drink with my partner and her friend. Around 6pm\, I got up\, went into the bathroom\, and when I came out I told them “something’s not right” pointing to my upper chest. Shortly thereafter\, I fell back in my chair. My eyes were rolling and I lost consciousness. My partner called 911. \nI had a massive heart attack at age 64. \nMy family was told that I probably would not survive this event. I was in the hospital for over two weeks. I was mentally out of it much of that time.

SUMMARY:Disrupting Sterile Spaces: How to Write Scientific Blackout Poetry
DESCRIPTION:Poet and science educator Lee Cotman will guide participants in creating their own “blackout” poem from a formal scientiDisfic abstract. In a blackout poem\, the writer chooses an existing document and obscures all but a few selected words; the remaining words create the poem. This process puts the writer in direct conversation\, not only with the words on the page\, but with the historical context\, power structures\, and biases underlying their chosen text. This workshop will begin with a brief discussion of the form and what makes a blackout poem effective\, with examples by celebrated Black and Indigenous writers. We will then transition into a three-step\, generative writing exercise\, and close with an opportunity to share your draft. Open to writers of all ages and experience levels!

SUMMARY:Reading Widely Book Club: Quicksand
DESCRIPTION:Join us for our monthly book club led by community members and local literati. This month we’ll be reading Quicksand\, by Nella Larsen. \nNella Larsen (1891-1964) is one of the most well-known names in the Harlem Renaissance canon\, though much of her personal history remains elusive. The author of two novels\, Quicksand and Passing\, and several short stories\, she received a Guggenheim fellowship in 1930 and later worked as a nurse. Larsen died in New York City in 1964. \nBook club books are 10% off when purchased instore and online. \nAbout the Book \nBorn to a white Danish mother and a Black American father\, Helga Crane has long struggled to carve a path for herself amid the racial segregation of the early twentieth century. As a teacher at an all-Black boarding school in the South\, Helga quickly becomes unsettled by the way the school measures excellence based on proximity to whiteness. Journeying to Chicago\, Harlem\, and Copenhagen\, she attempts to thrive free from the constraints of category–mother or wife\, promiscuous or chaste\, white or Black\, American or Danish. But these categories\, though slippery and unstable\, are constantly reinforced. \nHelga finally settles into a life that feels secure yet completely at odds with her previous ambitions–married to a preacher in the Deep South\, hoping to find peace under the wings of the Church. Landing back where she started\, in social and existential oblivion\, Helga forces us to consider: In a society marred by injustice\, is it even possible to find a true\, authentic self? With intriguing parallels to Larsen’s own life\, Quicksand is an engrossing page-turner that is as relevant now as ever before.

SUMMARY:Recovering Your Creative Spirit
DESCRIPTION:Recovering Your Creative Spirit with Brenna Fitzgerald. Are you feeling stuck\, uninspired\, or unfulfilled? Is something within you longing to be expressed? In this workshop we will explore the feeling of being creatively stuck and how it affects (and is affected by) our inner and outer worlds. Through written reflection\, group discussion\, mind-body practices\, and intuitive collage I will guide participants into a deeper understanding of their own creative blocks. We will examine how fluctuating states of writer’s block and creative flow are normal and learn strategies for finding balance through these changes. Together we will create a safe and supportive container for each person to begin the process of shifting from stuck to unstuck. My intention is to facilitate awareness of and curiosity around your needs and desires and to share tools and practices to help you sustain a fulfilling creative flow well beyond the workshop.

SUMMARY:Beyond Policing - Book Talk
DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, Philip V. McHarris invites us to critically examine the role of policing within society and explore transformative alternatives. Drawing from his book\, “Beyond Policing\,” McHarris delves into community-based safety models that challenge traditional policing methods and offer sustainable\, inclusive approaches to public safety. Through a combination of rigorous research and compelling narratives\, the talk will explore how we can foster a society where safety is a collective\, community-driven responsibility. \nPhilip V. McHarris is an assistant professor in the Frederick Douglass Institute and Department of Black Studies at the University of Rochester. He earned his PhD in sociology and African American studies at Yale University. He was named one of the Root 100s Most Influential African Americans in 2020\, and has appeared on MSNBC\, CNN\, and PBS and in the New York Times\, the Washington Post\, the Guardian\, and more. \nSadé Lindsay is a sociologist by training whose research interests lie at the intersection of criminal justice\, punishment\, racial inequality\, and public policy. Professor Lindsay’s work examines racism and the criminalization of deviance\, incarceration\, prison reentry\, collateral consequences of criminal justice contact\, and drug policy and use. Professor Lindsay’s scholarship has been published in outlets such as Criminology and Social Problems and received numerous awards from the American Society of Criminology\, the American Sociological Association\, and the Society for the Study of Social Problems. Professor Lindsay’s work has been funded and supported by the National Science Foundation\, the National Institute of Justice\, and the Horowitz Foundation for Social Policy\, among other organizations.
