Fellini's La Strada ~ Art Cinema
Drama, Foreign Classic
Italian / PG / 1 hr. 55 min.
"Signor Fellini has used his small cast, and, equally important, his camera, with the unmistakable touch of an artist. His vignettes fill his movie with beauty, sadness, humor and understanding." - A.H. Weiler, New York Times
"As French critic Andre Bazin pointed out, 'The Fellini character does not evolve; he ripens.' And so do his movies. - Rita Kempley , Washington Post

Italian / PG / 1 hr. 55 min.
Acclaimed Italian filmmaker Federico Fellini drew on his own circus background for the 1954 classic La Strada. Set in a seedy travelling carnival, this symbolism-laden drama revolves around brutish strongman Zampano (Anthony Quinn), his simple and servile girlfriend Gelsomina (Giulietta Masina, Fellini's wife), and clown/aerialist Matto (Richard Basehart). Appalled at Zampano's insensitive treatment of Gelsomina, the gentle-natured Matto invites her to run off with him; but Gelsomina, like a faithful pet, refuses to leave the strong man's side. Eventually Zampano's volcanic temper erupts once too often, leading to tragic consequences. Written by Fellini and Tullio Pinelli and scored by Nino Rota, La Strada was the winner of the first official Academy Award for Best Foreign-Language Film, awarded in 1956.

Craig Ferguson : Does this need to be said
Coming to The Lyric in Stuart, Florida on Tuesday, November 19, 2013 @ 7:00 PM. For tickets visit LyricTheatre.com
Few comedians can make you laugh like Craig Ferguson, and this is Craig at his best. This is a Craig set free and allowed to be himself, without the artificial constraints of his TV show (censor, budget, lighting, insert your own Late Late Show recurring joke here), and the results are hilarious. He's a master storyteller, and able to weave jokes in and out of what sometimes appear to be some of the most random topics ever. The special covers a broad spectrum, but it all pulls together into some epic comedy. And probably the most infectious, *bleep*-eating grin ever. Not sure why that's a phrase (why on earth would anyone first think to describe a grin as *bleep*-eating?), but it's apt. He has a great rapport with his audience, and it shows. It's clear he's having a great time, and cares that his audience is too. Judging from the laughs, they were. (I was lucky enough to be in the audience when it was filmed, but I think the special does a good job catching the energy there that night). Profane, profound, and side-splittingly funny. There aren't many comedians like Craig Ferguson, and this special is a great showcase for his talent.

Grayson Hugh
Grayson Hugh first burst on the scene in 1988 with his RCA album "Blind To Reason". The album spawned several international hits as well as popular music videos and eventually went Gold in both the U.S. and overseas. Hugh's unique blending of classic soul styles, poetic lyrics along with his high energy piano playing, charmed radio and concert audiences around the world.
His second record "Road To Freedom", was also acclaimed, making many top ten lists (including Billboard Magazine) and garnering feature articles by music critics. Pulitzer Prize-winning Leonard Pitts Jr. wrote: "Have I heard any newcomer in the last decade that excites me as much as this guy? No." (Miami Herald, October 19, 1992). "Road To Freedom" caught the attention of Hollywood as well. Director Ridley Scott requested the use of two of Hugh's songs for the film "Thelma and Louise". Jon Avnet asked Hugh to record a version of Bob Dylan's song "I'll Remember You". for the film "Fried Green Tomatoes". The resulting arrangement and performance by Hugh closes the film with "a gospel assault that could raise the dead" (Peanuts, The Cleveland Sun, December 3, 1992).
The 2010 release of "An American Record" heralded the return to the public eye and ear of Grayson Hugh. After many turbulent years that included disastrous dealings with a mercenary music industry, a stint as professor of songwriting at Berklee College Of Music in Boston and a near fatal relapse with alcohol in 2000, Hugh has emerged sober, stronger and more prolific than ever. In the words of one writer: "With An American Record, the payoff is just beginning. Grayson Hugh has been there and is back again. His story - our story - has to be heard." (Robert Doerschuk, CMA World.com (May 10, 2010).

Hugh first met singer Polly Messer in 1980, when she was singing with the swing band Eight To The Bar. Grayson's good friend Ron Scalise had produced both of their first records ("Grayson Hugh" and "This Joint Is Jumpin"). Ron would rave about this girl Polly and her voice, so Grayson had to hear her live. Impressed with what he called "that Polly-tone", Hugh asked Polly to sing backup vocals in his band The Wild Tones in 1982. The two became friendly during their subsequent many rehearsals and did performances in New York (the legendary Gerde's Folk City) and live television (CPTV's "In Performance" concerts series). Polly and Ron ended up getting married in 1988, just as Hugh's recording career was taking off. Though they all remained friends, Polly and Grayson led their seperate lives. Polly and Ron had a child in 1991 but were divorced in 1994. As a single mother, Polly returned to college and received a degree in Art (with a triple major) from Western Connecticut State University in her home town of Danbury. She showed her work at several galleries and sang briefly with a New York-based rockabilly band Eugene Chrylser. But longed to sing with Grayson again.
The opportunity came when, in 2006, she happened to hear that Grayson was recording a new album. She contacted him and the two reignited their friendship. When she asked to sing on the album, Hugh told her there was no money for a harmony singer. Polly offered to sing for free. At the first vocal session in January 2007, the chemistry began to grow beyond the musical and they were married in August 2008. Co-producing "An American Record", the two began a musical collaboration that has taken them to concert stages around the world.
Grayson is currently writing songs for his next record which will be released sometime in 2014.

The Big Lebowski ~ Cult Classic!
Comedy
English/117 min./R
English/117 min./R
The Big Lebowski is one of the best cult films of our times! In the usual unconventional style of Coen Brothers directing, a case of mistaken identity becomes an odd and complex kidnapping plot in the 1998 film The Big Lebowski. Jeff Lebowski (Jeff Bridges) is an easy-going nobody who happens to share the same name with a millionaire. When malicious plots do not go as planned, Lebowski unintentionally ends up in the middle of the Los Angeles mayhem. Accompanying Jeff Bridges is an all-star cast, including Steve Buscemi, John Turturro, John Goodman, and Julianne Moore. The Big Lebowski is a thoroughly entertaining, strange and fascinating world ruled by Joel and Ethan Coen. Rated R

The Big Lebowski ~ Cult Classic!
The rug that “really ties the room together” was inspired by a real-life experience. According to legend, Joel and Ethan Coen were at a barbecue, during which the host would randomly and repeatedly stop between conversations and say “Doesn’t this rug really tie the room together?” Obviously, the comment stuck with them.

Crossbone
Sweeping the Florida coast with their rough blend of country and rock, Crossbone is one of the best groups that local music has to offer. Despite their bad boy image, these Harley-Davidson driving musicians take their music seriously, performing some of the best and most well-known songs of the country rock genre with impeccable musicianship and high-powered energy. Making a name for themselves along the Treasure Coast, Crossbone now makes their way to The Lyric Theatre for a night of your favorite songs, including hits by Lynyrd Skynyrd, the Doors, and Charlie Daniels.
Founded in 2003, Crossbone began as a four piece band with a passion for southern rock and Harley-Davidson motorcycles. Initially playing nightclubs and private parties in the area, the band started to make waves in the local music scene, leaving loyal fans in their wake. Their energetic interpretations of country and rock classics earned them an unofficial title as the most wanted local band on the Treasure Coast. Bad boys with hearts, Crossbone has played at a countless number of fundraising and charitable events, including motorcycle club annuals, fundraisers for families of fallen or ill riders, March of Dimes, Habitat for Humanity events, and Toys for Tots. Despite their rising fame, the band broke up in 2007 after four years of success.
After only two years apart, guitarist Keith ‘Cutter’ Kohrs brought the best of local country rock back to the Treasure Coast and reunited the band in 2009. Along with lead guitarist Kevin McLoughlin and drummer Paul Goulas, Crossbone inducted two new members to the family, introducing bassist Bobby Lewis and lead vocalist Pat Campion. With their new soulful accompaniment and powerful vocals, Crossbone has added a whole new dimension to their already celebrated sound. The 5-piece group is celebrating its 10 year anniversary this year, performing a totally redesigned show featuring a new lineup of former members Scott Benge, Brian Cunningham, Norman ‘Buddy’ Reid, and Garry Nutt. Don’t miss Crossbone this October for their rockin’ anniversary celebration at The Lyric Theatre.
