Mustache and Cleavage is Alexander Lewis and Amy Kelly—longtime friends, songwriting partners, and two voices that find common ground in harmony. Their American indie folk brings together emotional honesty, memorable melodies, and a sense of humor about life’s less graceful moments.

Drawing inspiration from artists including Tom Petty, Stevie Nicks, Neil Young, and Joni Mitchell, the duo writes songs about the things that bring people together—and the things that pull them apart. Love, heartbreak, parenting, and the complications of everyday life all find their way into the music. The lyrics can break your heart, make you laugh, or do a little of both.

On stage, Alexander and Amy build that connection with two voices and an acoustic guitar. Their performances put the songs and stories front and center, with ringing harmonies that give each perspective room to breathe.

The duo released Can of Tears in 2019 and Sheltering Songs in 2020. These two studio EPs introduce the blend of tenderness, bite, and wit that runs through their songwriting. Their song “The Unicorn” appeared in the film What’s the Matter with Gerald?

Their forthcoming full-length album, Lucky You, brings relationship struggles, parenting angst, and breakup songs into the same room. It’s familiar territory for anyone who has loved someone, raised someone, or wondered how things got so complicated—and fertile ground for Mustache and Cleavage’s mix of drama and humor.

LINCOLN & DOUGLASS: THE PRESIDENT & THE ABOLITIONIST by Anthony D'Juan & Sean Patrick Nill

Two men. One nation coming apart. Frederick Douglass and Abraham Lincoln didn’t agree on much, at least not at first. But through a series of remarkable meetings, these two legendary figures challenged each other, learned from each other, and helped change the course of American history.

My Mama and the Full-Scale Invasion
by Sasha Denisova
Translated by Misha Kachman | Adapted by Kellie Mecleary
Directed by Michael Stevenson
November 18 – December 20, 2026

Sasha’s 82-year-old mother has lived in Kyiv her whole life. When Russia invades Ukraine in 2022, Sasha copes with her fears by imagining her mother in increasingly fantastical situations: strategizing with President Zelenskyy, striking Russian drones with jars of pickles, and even debating with God. Playwright Sasha Denisova was inspired by WhatsApp chats with her mother to write this darkly funny and deeply heartfelt new play.

“A study in the wonderful absurdity of a stubbornly resistant woman under fire.” –THE WASHINGTON POST

TICKETS: $5-$77

PERFORMANCE LENGTH: 90 Minutes, No Intermission

FEATURING: Jamie Jones*, Taylor Burris, Matt K. Miller*

What makes a song great? And how do certain songs transcend their era to become timeless musical treasures?

From Harold Arlen’s “Over the Rainbow” and George Gershwin’s “Embraceable You” to Cole Porter’s “Night and Day,” and Hoagy Carmichael’s ‘Georgia On My Mind’ the Great American Songbook is filled with melodies that have captivated audiences for generations—and continue to inspire musicians today.

Join Shelley Burns, Avalon Swing, and Jacam Manricks for an entertaining and musical exploration of these extraordinary songs. We’ll look at the melodies, harmonies, lyrics, and musical ideas that made them so enduring—and, of course, sing and play some of the greatest songs ever written.

Come discover what makes the Great American Songbook so great!

Shelley Burns is regarded as one of the premier jazz vocalists on the west coast. Her recordings have been heard on jazz radio stations across the nation, and she has appeared at many jazz festivals in the U.S, as well as in Scotland and Canada. Shelley has sung with Les Paul, Bucky Pizzarelli, Jimmy Smith and many other jazz greats. She is also a marvelous comedic actress and has often been compared to Carol Burnett and Imogene Coca. Like them, she can fracture an audience with laughter or mesmerize them with a beautiful song.

Bill Dendle is a celebrated West Coast jazz virtuoso and multi-instrumentalist whose extraordinary musicianship spans banjo, guitar, trombone, and vocals. A fixture of the Dixieland and traditional jazz scene for decades, he has performed at Disneyland, Disney World, USO tours, and major jazz festivals alongside legends including Bob Haggart, Nick Fatool, Bobby Gordon, Abe Most, and Johnny Varro. Known equally for his dazzling musicianship and quick-witted showmanship, Bill’s accomplishments will be recognized on October 9, 2026, when he is inducted into the American Banjo Museum Hall of Fame.

This special performance brings together two extraordinary musicians, joined by their longtime ensemble Avalon Swing, with two exceptional guest artists: drumming sensation Jeff Minieweather and nationally acclaimed saxophonist Jacam Manricks.

Together, they’ll create an unforgettable evening of virtuosity, swing, and musical chemistry.

Company Members Tara Sissom, Stephanie Altholz, Jason Kuykendall (and sometimes Dave Pierini!) perform classic long-form improvisation for a late-night audience. Coming out of Chicago’s comedy scene, the Harold has been used by famous improv groups like Second City which developed comedic talent such as Stephen Colbert, Steve Carell and Tina Fey. Based off an audience suggestion, performers will create a one-night-only improvised play, so every performance will be unique! As an exciting caveat, if we do achieve “maximum occupancy” (aka a sell-out show), we buy everyone pizza!
