Philadelphia Plowden is one of the most sound actors/comedians working today. His observations & revelations about the human condition, mixed with stories from his own life, take an audience on a 200mph trip that could stop at any point along the journey. Philly puts it all on the line, because he always works in the moment.

His ability to relate to people from different walks of life has made him a favorite in the cruise ship industry, comedy clubs, & corporate events. He’s opened for stars like the late Robert Palmer, Richard Jeni, & Julio Iglesias on the West coast leg of his 2003 world tour. Stories about his mother, kids & marriage has made him a favorite wherever he plays. With TV appearances in commercials & as a standup or a dramatic & comedic actor, Philadelphia is the “Full Package of Entertainment”!

Devin Siebold
Most women love tall, funny guys, and standing at 6’6″ Devin Siebold doesn’t disappoint. However, after working the past several years as a middle school teacher, don’t just expect him to pick up the check on any date. It is hard to deny Devin’s stage presence, when he is the size of the stage. He connects well with all audiences mainly because he can reach 7 rows back and physically grab any audience member not laughing at his jokes. The jokes center around his extensive past as a playboy, educator, and his ability to balance the two without going to jail in the process.

With credits to his name including Sirius XM, Pandora, writing for Uproxx, Nextround, and being selected as a finalist in Comedy Central’s Up Next, Improv Future Features, Side Splitters Opportunity Knox Winner and winning dozens of local comedy competitions, it is clear to see that Devin is on the right track to moving out of his van and into a slightly larger, newer-smelling van.

Grammy award-winning legend Mavis Staples teams up with multi-platinum recording artist Joan Osborne on the highly anticipated national tour, “Solid Soul”.

From her early days with the iconic Staple Singers, when she was on top of the charts with songs like the 1972 #1 hit I’ll Take You There, to her recent albums with Wilco’s Jeff Tweedy, Mavis Staples has been a leader in American music for six decades. The “Solid Soul” tour marks her first tour collaboration with Joan Osborne, the widely celebrated singer-songwriter who dominated Top 40 radio with her hit song One of Us and whose albums have garnered seven Grammy nominations.

“Mavis Staples will undoubtedly go down in history as one of the greatest gospel singers of all time. … From traditional gospel music to protest songs that underscored some of the decade’s most dramatic social changes, to the self-empowerment anthems and soulful love tunes of more recent years, she proves to be a gospel legend.” —The Current “

[Joan Osborne’s] sweet yet husky voice is a wonderfully expressive instrument, bringing emotional honesty, a.k.a. soul, to every performance…Osborne’s compositional, arranging and vocal talents take the listener on a classy, beautifullyrealized music journey.” —American Songwriter

Humongous on humor and large on laughs, the story of The Big Friendly Giant was Roald Dahlʼs personal favorite. On stage, his whizzcracklingly wacky tale comes to life with puppets and people creating a fantastical world of towering giants and magical adventures. In the Big Friendly Giant, we join two misfits on an unforgettable odyssey. The job of this larger-than-lifevegetarian is to blow magical dreams into children’s bedrooms. For a youngorphan “human bean”, however, the sight of the giant is too much and she fears for her life when he takes her away to an enchanted land. The harmless, cheeky Big Friendly Giant ultimately shows that heroes can come in all sizes.

Art + Performance + Outreach

JULY 18, 2015 | 7-11pm

The organizers, Niki Lopez and Alana DaCosta, of The Elephant Exhibition invites you attend the opening reception at 1310 Gallery which is located at 1310 SW 2nd Ct. (Middle St.), Ft. Lauderdale, FL 33312 on July 18, 2013.

The Elephant Exhibition is a group arts exhibition featuring work that challenges both artist and viewer to consider their choices about what in our lives, should be revealed and what should be hidden. We want the elephant out in the open so we can find release…

“The Elephant” as in ‘the elephant in the room’ is metaphorical idiom for an obvious truth that is either being ignored or going unaddressed. The idiomatic expression also applies to an obvious problem or risk no one wants to discuss, It is based on the idea that an elephant in a room would be impossible to overlook; thus, people in the room who pretend the elephant is not there have chosen to avoid dealing with the looming big issue.

Visual Artists include: Niki Lopez; Alana DaCosta; Allison Kotzig; Rolando Chang Barrero, Judy Leeson Polstra, Sonia Baez-Hernandez, Dianne Rosenberg; Ian Barnes, Susan Buzzi, Rene Gordon and others come together in a visual dialogue to revel their The Elephant.

Opening night will be hosted by Spoken word artist Chunky with performances by Chaos Theory, Dawn Robinson , 2015 Dada National Slam Team, Tico Armand, Yoli Mayor & others.

Bedside; Made up of Trace Barfield and Travis Acker, their soothing slow-down vibe incorporates elements of modern electronic deejay culture alongside the timeless art of horn instrumentation.

Analog; Reminiscent of a 70’s west-coast highway one cruise bathed in post-grunge rasp, Analog delivers a cross between modern and classical rock-and-roll influences.

Enzo Picardi; Native to Argentina, 21 year-old Enzo Picardi has been producing across the electronic spectrum from a young age.

Harry Andrw; Venezuelan deejay and producer Harry Andrw transcends the electronic music continuums, crafting sounds and tracks that transcend the boundaries of music, presenting them as works of art and culture.

WK&F Group and VP Productions Travel Presents the 8th Annual Miami Takeover Experience

Like-Minded Urban Professionals Party with a Purpose
Miami, FL-The 8th Annual Miami Takeover Experience will take place in sunny South Beach from July 9-13, 2015. Attendees will enjoy seven signature events at Miami’s premiere entertainment spots. The host hotels for this year’s Takeover include the SLS South Beach, the Aloft South Beach and the Cantina Hotel & Beach Club.

Over 3,000 visitors from Pennsylvania, DC, Maryland, Virginia, Texas, North Carolina and Georgia are expected to participate in Miami Takeover along with the 92,000 visitors expected in Miami that weekend. In the past, Miami Takeover has hosted notable personalities such as Trey Songz (R&B singer), Sanaa Lathan (Actress), Dave Chappelle (Comedian), Doug E. Fresh (Rapper/Celebrity Host) and MC Lyte (Celebrity DJ/Rapper), just to name a few.
“Miami Takeover is geared to provide like-minded urban professionals with a stress free getaway in the ideal vacation spot in Miami,” says Wylie Kynard, general partner of WK&F Group.

Hosted by radio personality Lorenzo “Ice T” Thomas, Miami Takeover events will take place in Miami’s most upscale spots including Mansion Nightclub, Nikki Beach, Ocean 10 and the South Beach Convention Center. Attendees will also get the opportunity to give back to the community by participating in two community outreach projects: a beach clean-up and a dental screening for kids at the Overtown Youth Foundation.

“Most people go to Miami just for the parties and nightlife but don’t necessarily learn more about the community they are visiting,” says Kynard. “Miami Takeover allows visitors and Miami natives the opportunity to enjoy Miami’s nightlife and also give back to the community all in one weekend.”

Miami Takeover is partnering with Colgate Palm Olive screening to provide 140 kids free dental screenings at the Overtown Youth Center. The screening will take place July 9. There will fun bounce houses at the dental screening along with a house emporium geared toward the kids attending.

“We want to give back to the community for allowing us to hold such great events in Miami,” says event logistic director, Dianne Walker of DeeWorks Enterprises.

The beach clean-up is presented in partnership with the Miami Beach Convention Center and the Environmental Coalition of Miami. The beach-clean up will take place Sunday, July 12th from 11 a.m.-12:30 p.m. Both locals and visitors are welcome to volunteer to help clean up a portion of South Beach (17th-20th Avenue).
Sponsorship opportunities are also available for companies to brand themselves during Miami Takeover.
