SUMMARY:Experience a Workshop of You're Never Too Old to Play
DESCRIPTION:Thursday June 18\, 2026 at 7pm – 9pm \nAfter the success of ABOVE GROUND – NOT EXACTLY A COMEDY on the theme of AGING\, at La Mama Experimental Theatre Club in 2025\,You’re Never Too Old to Play – An Acting workshop for Seniors\, is working on a new piece \nWe invite you to join us to observe an OPEN WORKSHOP featuring improvisation\, and work-in-progress stories. \nReview of Aging at La Mama by Edward Kliszus\n“…actors do not pretend; they are. They acknowledge the audience\, inviting them into their world rather than asking them to suspend disbelief. The stage is not a place of illusion but a living space where truth materializes without pretense. In this environment\, every movement\, every breath\, every interaction becomes significant—an authentic exchange between performer and observer.”\n“The Artists Behind the Experience \nNancy Gabor\, a distinguished director and theater educator\, brings decades of experience to the project. A former member of Joseph Chaikin’s Open Theater\, she was pivotal in developing experimental works like The Serpent. Her collaborations with luminaries such as Andrei Serban and Sam Shepard have cemented her legacy in avant-garde theater.\n‘Paul Binnerts\, co-director\, and Real-Time Acting theorist\, has spent his career exploring performance’s intersection with reality. His European award-winning productions\, including Black Box and The Same Sea\, reflect his commitment to theater that challenges and engages. His seminal work\, Acting in Real Time\, is a foundational text for this performance genre. \nVideo by Mourrice Papi of Performance at Westbeth Community Room in 2024

SUMMARY:Introduction to Hieroglyphs for MagiciansTamara Wyndham
DESCRIPTION:Tuesday April 21\, 2026 at 7pm \nWestbeth Community Room 155 Bank Street (enter through courtyard) New York\, NY 10014 \nTamara Wyndham  will give an introduction to the basics of reading Egyptian Hieroglyphs\, and how they were used in magick. \nThe word “Hieroglyph” means “sacred inscription”. Myth informs us that it was a gift to humanity from the God Tahuti (Thoth). This beautiful writing is a complex system of sound-signs and ideograms. We will go over the basic principles of hieroglyphs. You will learn how to write your name\, the names of some of the Gods\, and some basic vocabulary. We will examine how hieroglyphs were used in spells and as amulets. \nWe will also read the hieroglyphs on the Stele of Revealing. And I have an exciting new translation of the part of the stele by scholar B Niall Bjørn Nielsen.

SUMMARY:John Menegon Trio"Belongings" music performance
DESCRIPTION:Sunday April 12\, 2026. 7pm – 9pm \nWestbeth Community Room\n155 Bank Street\n(enter through courtyard)\nNew York\, NY 10014 \nJohn Menegon Trio: “Belongings”\nJohn Menegon (bass & compositions) @johnmenegon\nLeo Genovese (piano) @leogenovese\nHarvey Sorgen (drums) @harveysorgen \nIt was 2012\, during a celebration of the late drummer Jack DeJohnette’s 70th birthday (produced by Jazzstock)\, where Harvey\, Leo\, and John (who all had a close relationship with Jack) played for a celebration of one of the most influential drummers of our time. It was at this event that our relationship as a Trio began and led us to this group’s exploration of sound and discovery. \n“Belongings” refers to the ownership of sentimental objects. We all seek to belong\, and our Musical Language is what connects us. The object that we share is our music! Our collective pairings over the years with pianist Marilyn Crispell\, saxophonist Joe Lovano\, drummer Jack DeJohnette\, and countless others\nare what bind us together as a group. New music will be recorded on April 13th and released this spring on a label TBA! \nA debut performance of this music will be presented in New York City at\nWestbeth Community Room (155 Bank Street) on Sunday\, APRIL 12th (7\n‘til 9 pm)\nSponsored by “Jazzstock Festival” \nJOHN MENEGON (bass & compositions)\n“New York bassist John Menegon is in the line of George Mraz and Michael Moore; a\nharmonically sophisticated bassist with technical facility who swings hard when it’s\ncalled for.” Kirk Silsbee\, Downbeat!\nMenegon is a Jazz Bassist\, multi-instrumentalist\, and composer. He began his career\nas a musician in Montreal\, playing in groups with the great guitarist Nelson Symonds\,\npianist Vic Vogel\, and guitarist Sonny Greenwich. After relocating to New York City\, he\nplayed bass for over ten years with two legendary tenor saxophonists\, Dewey Redman\nand Texas Tenor David “Fathead” Newman. Menegon has released six CDs as a\nbandleader featuring Dewey Redman\, Frank Kimbrough\, Jean-Michel Pilc\, Joel Frahm\,\nMatt Wilson\, Kenny Burrell\, Jack DeJohnette\, Teri Roiger\, John Di Martino\, John\nGunther\, Tineke Postma\, and many others. He currently plays with jazz legend Joe\nLovano’s “Joyous Encounters” Quartet as well as numerous other stellar musicians. As\nan educator\, he spent over 20 years teaching in the Jazz Department at SUNY New\nPaltz (NY)\, and also taught at Williams College\, Bard\, and Bennington. Menegon’s\nlatest recording as a leader “Sound Embrace\,” released in 2024\, features his original\ncompositions with Jean-Michel Pilc on piano\, Chet Doxas on sax\, and Jim Doxas on\ndrums. “Although Sound Embrace showcases Menegon’s exceptional writing skills\, let’s\nnot forget the strong\, lyrical\, and harmonically advanced bass playing of Menegon as a\nsoloist intuitively interacting with the ensemble. There is something very special\nabout Sound Embrace.” Abe Goldstein\, Papatamus Redux.\n@johnmenegon\nwww.valleyjazzrecords.com \nLEO GENOVESE (piano)\nLeo Genovese (born 1979) is an acclaimed Argentinian jazz pianist\, keyboardist\, and\ncomposer based in Brooklyn\, NY. Known for his work with Esperanza Spalding\, Wayne\nShorter\, and Jack DeJohnette\, he is a prolific artist blending jazz with free improvisation.\nA Berklee College of Music graduate\, he leads his own projects and is a key figure in\nthe NYC avant-garde scene. A reviewer for The New York Times commented on\nGenovese's 2013 album\, Seeds\, that\, "by refusing to privilege one historical style over\nanother\, he strengthens his claim as a polyglot".  DownBeat  observed that Genovese's\ncompositions for the album "share an exploratory nature\, whether the new terrain in\nquestion is a marriage of electronic and acoustic sounds\, an unlikely use of chromatic\nscaling or the successful juxtaposition of otherwise disparate ideas."\nWayne Shorter & Leo Genovese (soloist) won a Grammy Award for Best Improvised\nJazz Solo for the Wayne Shorter composition "Endangered Species" for which Leo\naccompanied him on the album Live at the Detroit Jazz Festival. Genovese won\nthe  DownBeat  Critics Award for Rising Star – Piano in 2023.\n@leogenovese \nHARVEY SORGEN (drums)\nIn sound\, motion\, and beauty . . . so to lay the groundwork for truth. I am eternally\ngrateful to have created honest music with some of the greatest artists of our time. With\nover 200 record credits\, just a few of the artists I have had the good fortune to record\nand/or perform with include: Hot Tuna\, Ahmad Jamal\, Paul Simon\, Roswell Rudd\,\nMichelle Shocked\, Tony Levin\, Julius Hemphill\, Giovanni Hildago\, Zakir Hussain\,\nWadada Leo Smith\, Bruce Hornsby\, Bob Weir\, Phil Lesh\, Dave Douglas\, Duanik Lazro\,\nKarl Berger\, Marilyn Crispell\, Percy Heath\, Warren Haynes\, The Memphis Pilgrims\,\nAnthony Braxton\, and Dewey Redman\, among many\, many others. Through touring for\nover 45 years\, it’s always astonishing to see the level of creativity in our music\nhappening around the globe. Giving workshops and master classes continues to inspire\nand helps to focus on what is important on our instrument and in the music.\nwww.harveysorgen.com\n@harveysorgen

SUMMARY:Watch an Open Workshop of You're Never Too Old to Play
DESCRIPTION:Thursday March 26\, 2026 12:30 – 2pm \nWestbeth Community Space\n155 Bank St\n(enter through courtyard)\nNew York\, NY 10014 \nAfter the success of ABOVE GROUND – NOT EXACTLY A COMEDY on the theme of AGING\, at La Mama Experimental Theatre Club in 2025\,You’re Never Too Old to Play – An Acting workshop for Seniors\, is working on a new piece on the theme of DEPARTURE. \nWe invite you to join us to observe an OPEN WORKSHOP on Thursday March 26 th from 12:30 – 2:00 PM in the Westbeth Community Room: \nIMPROVISATION\, WORK-IN-PROGRESS STORIES\nand a\nREADING of a SHORT PLAY BY BERTOLT BRECHT by the conductors of the workshop\nNANCY GABOR AND PAUL BINNERTS: THE JEWISH WIFE. A PIECE FOR THE TIME WE LIVE IN. \nReview of Aging at La Mama by Edward Kliszus\n“…actors do not pretend; they are. They acknowledge the audience\, inviting them into their world rather than asking them to suspend disbelief. The stage is not a place of illusion but a living space where truth materializes without pretense. In this environment\, every movement\, every breath\, every interaction becomes significant—an authentic exchange between performer and observer.”\n“The Artists Behind the Experience\nNancy Gabor\, a distinguished director and theater educator\, brings decades of experience to the project. A former member of Joseph Chaikin’s Open Theater\, she was pivotal in developing experimental works like The Serpent. Her collaborations with luminaries such as Andrei Serban and Sam Shepard have cemented her legacy in avant-garde theater.\n‘Paul Binnerts\, co-director\, and Real-Time Acting theorist\, has spent his career exploring performance’s intersection with reality. His European award-winning productions\, including Black Box and The Same Sea\, reflect his commitment to theater that challenges and engages. His seminal work\, Acting in Real Time\, is a foundational text for this performance genre.

SUMMARY:Isis Moon Ritual Navigium Isidis
DESCRIPTION:Sunday\, March 1\, 2026\, 6:30 pm \nWestbeth Community Space\n155 Bank Street\, New York\, NY 10014\n(enter through courtyard) \n$15 suggested donation (No one turned away for lack of funds)\nplus food and drink to share for potluck dinner. \nA ritual/performance collaboration with audience participation.\nDance: Mirla Pereira\nBody Print Painting: Tamara Wyndham\nRitual written and conceived by Tamara Wyndham \nIsis was a major goddess in the Egyptian pantheon. But under the Roman Empire her powers grew. Temples were built to her across the known world. Her cult rivaled Christianity.  \nEarly March was a holiday in her honor\, the Navigium Isidis (the vessel of Isis) honoring her ability to protect seafarers.  \nWeather permitting\, we will first gather at the community room\, then go to the Hudson River Park at 12th Street. We will parade with a small model boat carrying the statue of Isis\, and will chant and shake sistra and tambourines. Then we will return to the Westbeth Community Space. In case of rain\, we will gather at the Westbeth Community Space at 6:30 pm and stay there. \nMirla Pereira will personify the goddess\, as she appeared in the temple at Sais: “I am all that has been and is and shall be; and no mortal has ever lifted my veil.” — symbolizing the secrets of nature; as well as divine and inaccessible knowledge. \nTamara Wyndham will make a contact body print of Mirla at the conclusion of her dance. Applying paint to her body\, the paint will transfer to cloth. This symbolizes a transformation. And then Mirla\, as Isis will be unveiled.\nParticipants will then be invited to be blessed with water that has been exposed to the full moon\, and also blessed with a moonstone.
