Tributes Starring Joe Posa as Joan Rivers and Featuring Seth Sikes 1/14/23

TRIBUTES Starring Joe Posa as Joan Rivers and Featuring Seth Sikes
Saturday, 01/14/2023-, 08:00 pm-
Sunshine Cathedral Center for the Performing Arts
1480 SW 9th Avenue,
Fort Lauderdale, Florida, 33315
Website
Cost: $35; $65 VIP ticket includes premium seating and a meet and greet photo opportunity with both performers

The stars will align when Joe Posa and Seth Sikes unite to perform for one night only in “TRIBUTES,” a loving homage to female leading legends, on Saturday, January 14, at 8 p.m., at the Sunshine Cathedral Center for the Performing Arts (1480 SW 9th Avenue). Tickets for this dynamic duo show are on sale, now.

This new tribute show, produced by the leading men, themselves, will bring two worlds of performance art together: female impersonation and live song. Joe Posa will impersonate Joan Rivers, Barbra Streisand and Liza Minnelli while Seth Sikes will delight audiences with his soulful voice singing of nostalgic tunes made famous by Judy Garland, Bernadette Peters and others.

Joe Posa has made a name for himself in show business, starting his career in musical theater as a performer/dancer featured in the international touring company of West Side Story plus other musicals including Anything Goes, Grease, A Chorus Line and South Pacific. In 1993 (soon to be celebrating his 30th anniversary), he then found his wings as a sought-after female celebrity impersonator. Having performed alongside Ms. Rivers on two separate occasions, Posa was lovingly called by Ms. Rivers, her “favorite Joan Rivers Impersonator.” As a cast member in several productions of “An Evening at La Cage,” he has performed as Barbra Streisand, Liza Minnelli, Gloria Estefan and Michael Jackson. Posa was also Susan Lucci’s Erica Kane character double on ABC’s “All My Children,” as well as Tina Fey’s Liz Lemon character double on NBC’s “30 Rock.” Posa has produced and starred in multiple shows in Provincetown, Puerta Vallarta, Boston, Palm Springs, New York City, London and other cities for nearly 20 years. His productions include, “Guys as Dolls,” “An Evening at the Birdcage,” “Joe Posa Poses,” and “The Bitch is Back!” Also, he has performed at numerous red carpet corporate functions, charity fundraisers and elegant private events.

Seth Sikes is one of New York’s most popular young nightclub performers. Hailed as “the best male singer of his generation” by Theatre Scene, Sikes has been selling out venues since his 2014 debut of “Seth Sikes Sings Judy Garland.” The show recounted how Garland inspired Sikes as a young boy in Paris, Texas, while he belted the legend’s greatest hits backed by a seven-piece band. The show won Broadway World’s Best Tribute Show award and prompted The New York Times to declare, “The performance was a hit with critics and audiences, alike.” The reviewers were equally enthusiastic toward his follow-up show, “Seth Sikes Sings Liza Minnelli.” The New York Post relayed, “It was a heartfelt concert. Sikes has a heap of fans, and his audiences are always tightly packed and brimming with enthusiasm for his booming, jazzy renditions of their favorite songs.” When the Covid pandemic prevented Sikes from performing for live audiences, he created a series of online music video parodies that went viral, viewed by hundreds of thousands. His most recent video, “Ring Them Bells,” was selected to close the globally broadcast Liza Minnelli 75th birthday tribute. Sikes also works in the theatre behind the scenes. He was associate director for “The Band’s Visit” and “The Nance” on Broadway. He directed the original musical “Bunked!” which won Outstanding Musical at the New York International Fringe Festival in 2010, as well as “The 7th Annual Broadway Beauty Pageant.

Tickets for “TRIBUTES” start at $35 with a $65 VIP ticket including premium seating and a meet and greet photo opportunity with both performers. To purchase tickets, visit bit.ly/TributesbyPosaandSikes.

Free Art Exhibit–Germs as Art — ArtServe Explores the Beauty of Microbes 12/2/22 through 12/30/22

In a time where few want to think about germs, much less consider their inherent beauty, molecular biologist Dr. Sara Schesser Bartra is on a mission to re-introduce all types of microscopic beings to people through her art, but in a much less contagious way.

Currently running at ArtServe in its Bienes Gallery through December 30, her solo exhibit entitled “Microbes: The Good, The Bad and The Beautiful” depicts an artistic interpretation of the many types of micro-organisms Dr. Schesser Bartra has seen and learned about during her career as a scientist at the University of Miami’s Miller School of Medicine.

“My work does not pretend to illustrate the natural world, but rather shows a representation of it to instigate curiosity about it in the eyes of the audience,” Dr. Schesser Bartra explained.

“The Good, The Bad and The Beautiful” uses multimedia to represent everything from beneficial bacteria to diverse pathogens, all of which display a complex visual diversity in their unseen abundance.

“Dr. Schesser Bartra’s work has a highly personal approach and perspective that creates a visual relationship with the mysterious microbial world and a better awareness and understanding of science in general,” ArtServe Executive Director Jason Hughes said.

Dr. Schesser Bartra, who is originally from Sweden, also founded and leads an art group of Swedish women living in South Florida.

“The Good, The Bad and The Beautiful” is on display concurrently with ArtServe’s “Narratives in Latin American Art” exhibit, which also runs through Dec. 30.

ArtServe inspires, supports and advances its diverse members, artists and community by promoting artistic development, education and prosperity through the exploration and presentation of the visual and performing arts.

For more information, visit www.artserve.org. Gallery hours are 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday and 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday. Admission is always free.

Art Form: Music Concert

This Holiday Sing Along with Grammy-Award winner Dan Zanes and his musical wife, Claudia Zanes, is a multicultural all-ages wintertime celebration based on the Christmas gatherings Dan experienced as a child growing up in New Hampshire in which friends and neighbors came together to sing carols around the piano.

But it’s the 21st century!

And now the singers are from a variety of traditions and the songs are from here and there, near and far — Christmas and Hanukah classics in English, Hebrew, and Ladino as well as holiday songs from Korea, Tunisia, Puerto Rico, Wales, and Haiti. Instead of a piano there are the sounds of guitar, mandolin, harmonica, flute, trombone, tambourine, melodica, ukulele and anything else that happens to make it in the door. Songbooks are distributed and the audience becomes a part of the festivities.

The Dan + Claudia Zanes Holiday Sing Along offers a chance for people to experience some of the best of life’s possibilities… while singing with wild abandon!

This show is an ideal Sensory Friendly performance.‍

Sebrina María Alfonso will conduct Handel’s glorious holiday favorite, Messiah, the seasonal masterpiece, featuring soloists Neil Nelson, bass baritone; Gerardo Ortega, tenor; Brittany Graham, soprano; Stephanie Newman, mezzo-soprano and the South Florida Symphony Chorus on December 4, at 4 p.m., at Barry University in Miami.

Smithsonian magazine writes, “A musical rite of the holiday season, the Baroque-era oratorio still awes listeners 250 years after the composer’s death.” Handel’s popular work, which draws from the Christian Lent and Easter stories, encompasses a musical narrative brilliance that transcends belief systems.”

To elevate the holiday spirit, the evening opens with glorious sounds of the season, including Schubert’s Ave Maria; Pietro Yon’s Italian Christmas carol, “Gesù Bambino;” Mendelssohn’s “Hark! The Herald Angels Sing,” and more followed by Part I of Handel’s Messiah. The performance culminates with the iconic “Hallelujah” chorus as sung by the South Florida Symphony Chorus, made-up of seasoned chorale singers and community talent. The Chorus is conducted by Dr. Giselle Elgarresta Rios. Rios and Maestra Alfonso collaborated to create the South Florida Symphony Chorus in 2019, which made its debut at the Beethoven 250th celebration in February of 2020.

The esteemed South Florida Symphony, celebrating its 25th anniversary of artistic excellence, launched its 2022/23 season on November 9 at The Parker in Fort Lauderdale and on November 10 New World Center in Miami Beach. This outstanding season will feature classical masterworks including Shostakovich’s final “War Symphony,” No. 9, Brahms’s doubly demanding Concerto for Violin and Cello and an all-Dvořák program with audience favorite – and performer during the Symphony’s inaugural concert – Zuill Bailey. Additionally, honoring its commitment to presenting new works, SFSO will present its third world premiere by composer-in-residence John Gottsch: the Florida-inspired Ocklawaha. The South Florida Symphony Chorus will expand its repertoire, once again, performing one of the greatest large chorale works of its day, Bruckner’s majestic Te Deum.

Tickets start at $20 for the December 4 performance at Barry University’s Shepard & Ruth K. Broad Performing Arts Center (11300 NE 2nd Ave in Miami Shores) and can be ordered online at https://southfloridasymphony.org/handels-messiah or via phone at (954) 522-8445.

State of the Art is the first large scale hybrid installation by ThankYouX— this project reimagines the use of blockchain technology as a medium rather than a tool for distribution.
State of the Art consists of four paintings broken into 400 equal tiles— creating 1600 unique paired physical and digital artworks. Upon launch, participants will all be randomly assigned a singular digital tile corresponding with a section of one of the four paintings. Eventually, collectors will be able to claim the identical physical artwork. Before the physical claim, users will have the ability to work directly with the secondary market to purchase additional, adjacent, and connecting tiles to merge, and eventually claim, a larger section of the canvas.

Each painting distinctively expresses ThankYouX’s own representation and exploration of digital information migrating through the internet, blockchain and cyberspace

CPA, panelists include Jeremy Abramson, founder of Microdosing Mastermind and chief energy officer and podcast host of Thrive University; and Irina Vlada, co-founder of Evolve, certified awareness coach, master yoga teacher, and psychedelic integration mentor. The panelists will discuss their expertise in psychedelics coaching.

The panel started at Soho Beach House Miami and expanded to locations throughout the country including New York, Chicago and California, as well as internationally in London. Past panelists include NBA champion Lamar Odom, Stanley Cup champion and Wesana CEO Daniel Carcillo, Psilera Bioscience CEO Chris Witowski, PhD, Silo Wellness CEO Douglas K. Gordon, and others.

Robinson is Founding Partner of Mr. Cannabis Law – a full service law firm focused on the cannabis and psychedelic industries; Co-Founder of Mr. Psychedelic Law – a non-profit focused on psychedelic legal reform; Managing Principal of Iter Investments – a venture capital firm deploying capital across the psychedelic ecosystem; and Co-Founder of Nucleus – a platform with various tools to help guide individuals on their mental health journey.

Abramson is one of the world’s most respected thought leaders and mindset coaches specializing in holistic wellness/plant medicines including psychedelics and microdosing. He coaches high-level entrepreneurs and athletes to optimize their flow state, creativity, and cognition. In 2022, Abramson founded the Microdosing Mastermind, where he has mentored over 100+ students on their microdosing journeys.

As an awareness coach, her path is deeply rooted in the discovery and exploration of the authentic self and mindful practices. She is the co-founder of Evolve, the Wellness App for personal transformation via evolutionary modalities. Life experiences inspired Vlada to continue her education in addiction recovery and psychedelic integration to cultivate the connection and sense of unity for those who have been suffering from disconnection and isolation. Working in partnership with Mindbloom, a national ketamine telemedicine company out of New York, Vlada has seen over 150 clients in the last year who are embarking on ketamine medicine journeys for mental health purposes, and the success stories are overwhelming. Now she leads Psychedelic Integration Circles and Psychedelic Panel Discussions to raise awareness around the power of intentional use of psychedelic medicine.
