Tom Needham's SOUNDS OF FILM - Peter is the director of BLACK HOLES: THE EDGE OF ALL WE KNOW. The documentary asks what can black holes teach us about the boundaries of knowledge? These holes in spacetime are the darkest objects and the brightest-the simplest and the most complex. With unprecedented access, Black Hole | The Edge of All We Know follows two powerhouse collaborations. Stephen Hawking anchors one, striving to show that black holes do not annihilate the past. Another group, working in the world's highest-altitude observatories, creates an earth-sized telescope to capture the first-ever image of a black hole. Interwoven with other dimensions of exploring black holes, these stories bring us to the pinnacle of humanity's quest to understand the universe. click here

Alicia Hall Moran: the motown project - Joe's Pub Live! - the motown project is back by popular demand, after its success at the 2021 Under the Radar Festival. Musical traditions yearning for each other across race, class, and nation grace Alicia Hall Moran's meditation on the classic Motown songbook - a cinematic, movement-based aria fusing "Sugar Pie Honey Bunch" with Mozart, while Marvin Gaye's lyrical pathos finds solemnity in Purcell. Featuring Thomas Flippin (guitar and theorbo), Steven Herring (vocals), Barrington Lee (vocals), Raphael Fusco (piano) and, in the rhythm section, Jason Moran (piano), LaFrae Sci (drums), and Reggie Washington (bass). In collaboration with choreographer Amy Hall Garner, the motown project reimagines Motor City poetics in a study of desire and infatuation only soul and opera embodied by one chanteuse could endure. click here

Edgar Allen - A manic lullabye inspired by the childhood and short stories of Edgar Allan Poe. Eleven-year-old Edgar Allan has only one goal: to be the most remarkable boy at Manor House School. He has only one obstacle: Edgar Allan. Edgar Allan is a two-person musical created and performed by Katie Hartman and Nick Ryan. It follows a pre-adolescent Edgar Allan Poe in his first year at English Boarding School, as he seeks to gain academic ascendancy over the student body. All goes to plan until another boy named Edgar Allan arrives in class... which complicates his schemes of dominance. Edgar Allan is a dark, comedic riff on the obsessions, the mania, and the insanity that haunted the life and work of America's first professional writer. click here
