Founded in 1909\, the “Whiffs” began as a senior quartet that met for weekly concerts at Mory’s Temple Bar\, the famous Yale tavern. Today\, the group has become one of Yale’s most celebrated traditions\, with over a century of musical excellence. \n\n\n\nSinging a mixture of old Yale tunes\, jazz standards\, and other hits from across the decades\, the Whiffenpoofs perform more than 200 concerts each year. Their characteristic white tie and tails\, paired with their enthusiasm and humor\, have become iconic for audiences all around the United States and across the world. \n\n\n\nThe Whiffenpoofs are perfect entertainment for diverse occasions\, including public concerts\, fundraising events\, and private events of all types. Recent Whiffenpoof performance venues include Carnegie Hall\, the Kennedy Center\, the White House\, the Rose Bowl\, and Lincoln Center. The Whiffenpoofs have reached a television audience of more than 175 million via appearances in NBC’s The Sing-Off\, The West Wing\, The Today Show\, 60 Minutes\, Gilmore Girls\, Jeopardy!\, Saturday Night Live\, and most recently the Season 4 finale of the hit television show Glee.  \n\n\n\nThe Whiffenpoofs have sung for multiple sitting Presidents of the United States and have toured over twenty countries on six continents almost every year for the last several years. Nonetheless\, the Whiffs always feel most at home at Yale on their perennial Monday night engagement at Mory’s\, where they close each night with the historic Whiffenpoof Song\, covered by artists among the likes of Elvis Presley\, Bing Crosby\, and Rudy Vallee:To the tables down at Mory’s\,to the place where Louis dwellsto the dear old TempleBar we love so wellsing the Whiffenpoofs assembled\,with their glasses raised on highand the magic of theirsinging casts its spell.. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n TICKETS\n\n\n\nVIEW CALENDAR\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLocal 7th through 12th graders enrolled in TACAW’s Youth Art Pass program are eligible to receive two (2) free admission tickets: one (1) for them and one (1) for a guest.

These open rehearsals are a prelude to Dance Aspen’s full production\, Re:imagine\, which will be presented at the Wheeler. \n\n\n\nRe:imagine\, an evening of world premieres by American choreographers whose careers abroad in Europe have shaped bold new visions for contemporary ballet. \n\n\n\nAbout DanceAspen \n\n\n\nIn 2021\, in response to the dissolution of the Roaring Fork Valley’s professional dance company\, a determined group of dancers led by Laurel Winton established a bold\, new contemporary company. Their grassroots effort quickly garnered local support\, culminating in a sold-out debut at the Wheeler Opera House. Rooted in the principles of collaboration\, community\, and artistic excellence\, their company has developed a significant reputation\, showcasing internationally renowned choreographers and creating 30+ world premieres. DanceAspen has also graced prominent stages at the Vail Dance Festival and Aspen Music Festival\, demonstrating their dedication to producing new contemporary dance while enhancing the cultural vibrancy of the Aspen area. \n\n\n\nLearn more about DanceAspen: WEBSITE / INSTAGRAM \n\n\n\nAbout Houston Thomas \n\n\n\nWEBSITE \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHouston Thomas is a choreographer and former soloist with the Dresden Semperoper Ballett.Born and raised in Chicago\, Illinois\, Houston embarked on his dance journey through the Joffrey Ballet Outreach Program under the tutelage of Pierre Locket.

Each week the podcast features an in-depth interview with a fiction\, non-fiction\, essay\, or poetry writer. The show is equal parts investigation into the craft of writing and conversation about the topics of an author’s work. \n\n\n\nABOUT A COMPLETE FICTION \n\n\n\nWith little evidence\, would-be author P.J. Larkin serves a “nibble” on the trendy new social-media app Crave\, accusing editor George Dunn of stealing the novel she submitted to him for publication. The nibble shoots to the top of the site’s Popular Menu Items and before you can say “unpaid literary labor\,” George is embroiled in a scandal\, his job and book deal in jeopardy. P.J.’s novel is snapped up amid the publicity\, but has she revealed her sister Mia’s secrets in the book? Some diners on Crave think so\, and now it’s P.J.’s turn to feel the public’s scorn. Told in the humorous vein of Where’d You Go\, Bernadette?\, A Complete Fiction examines the very serious questions of who has a right to tell a story\, and has cancel culture gone too far in our social media-drenched world?  \n\n\n\nABOUT R.L. MAIZES \n\n\n\nR.L. Maizes’s debut novel\, Other People’s Pets\, won the 2021 Colorado Book Award in Fiction and was a Library Journal Best Debut of Summer/Fall 2020. She is also the author of the short story collection We Love Anderson Cooper.

She is a Virginia Center for the Creative Arts Fellow and the recipient of a Fellowship Grant from the Memorial Foundation for Jewish Culture for 2024-2025 for her novel-in-progress. She lives in Niwot\, Colorado. \n\n\n\nLearn more about R.L.

A true Southern Spectacle and one of queer country’s leading voices\, the inspiring singer-songwriter is brave enough to truly be himself – and help others do the same. His third album Southern Spectacle is a loud-and-proud soundtrack for those who break the mold\, mixing the joyful energy of pop and funk with a down-home heart (because nobody is just one thing). Raised in Russellville\, Kentucky\, Mac grew up a farm-and-church kid loving The Spice Girls and Shania Twain\, who’s non-stop singing soon moved from the bedroom to Sunday services and talent shows. By 22 he had moved to Nashville to write songs he thought the mainstream would accept\, but by his own admission\, nearly 10 years of struggle led nowhere – until he realized he was doing “three chords and the truth” all wrong. Fusing vocal soul with a danceable country-funk mix (and the full fabulousness of his personality)\, 2023’s breakout hit “Disco Cowboy” set Mac free. The rapturous music video held the #1 spot on CMT’s 12-Pack Countdown for four weeks\, leading to a full album of the same name and a pandora’s box of conversations. After protestors forced Mac to cancel a hometown performance\, waves of supporters joined his cause\, including Kelsey Ballerini and Maren Morris\, who invited Mac to open her Lunatic Tour in Chicago. The national media also took notice\, with Mac’s music hailed by Billboard\, Entertainment Weekly\, Out\, GLAAD\, and PEOPLE\, calling Mac “country music’s very own Elton John.” Southern Spectacle is the end result – a definitive intersection of country music and queer identity. Arriving in 2025\, 12 songs co-written by Mac with close friends (including at least one other queer creator on each track) mark a work of cloud-nine courage\, with a resilient\, revelatory sense of self acceptance. Louder and prouder than ever\, and with a true community in his corner\, Mac finally embraces his own story\, contrasts and quirks included. His work might invite the scorn of a few\, but also gives his fellow Southern Spectacles permission to strut. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nABOUT CHRIS HOUSMAN\n\n\n\nGenre: Country \n\n\n\nWEBSITE / FACEBOOK  / INSTAGRAM / TWITTER / YOUTUBE / SPOTIFY / TIKTOK \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nChris Housman is a multi-faceted musician and boundary-breaking singer-songwriter who lives by the mantra “y’all means all.” Hailed by The Tennessean as “one of Nashville’s most authentically soulful singer-songwriters” and praised by Billboard for giving a voice to “outcasts in the genre\,” Housman is helping lead a powerful shift toward inclusivity and truth in storytelling. \n\n\n\nRaised on a farm outside the tiny rural town of Hanston\, Kansas (population 200)\, the stage was set early for Housman to chase big dreams. At just seven years old\, he began performing in his family band\, teaching himself to play the fiddle and soaking in the magic of making music. That early spark evolved into extraordinary versatility—he now sings and plays guitar\, piano\, upright bass\, saxophone\, drums\, banjo\, spoons\, and even placed 5th in the world at an International Whistling Competition. “I love picking up an instrument with no idea what im doing\, it opens up an entirely different world of sound and inspiration for me.” \n\n\n\nDubbed as “the ‘gayme-changer’ the country music field needed\,” by USA Today\, his critically acclaimed debut album Blueneck was a bold and proud introduction to his sharp songwriting\, musical dexterity\, and unwavering commitment to his story. The title track debuted at #1 on the iTunes Country chart\, #4 on the iTunes all-genre chart\, and #16 on the Billboard Digital Sales chart\, with the album amassing over 7 million streams so far. \n\n\n\n“Regarding ‘Blueneck\,’ it’s not a coincidence that the song that is the most authentic and kind of my identity song about my story\, that’s the thing that resonated the most. It was so validating\, I can’t even express what that did for me.” \n\n\n\nThe project offers a poignant\, witty reflection of his true identity\, which is delivered with hooks as compelling as the message behind them. Rolling Stone called the title track “a defiant anthem of staying true to your heart in the face of a world that tells you to dim your shine\,” while Billboard also stated the project “melds a ’90s country sound with songs that reflect Housman’s own truths and journey.” \n\n\n\nAs he looks ahead at this new chapter\, Housman hopes to create songs that he wishes he had heard when growing up. Undeniably country\, harkening back to his days on his family’s farm\, this new collection of music will further cement his place in the genre.  \n\n\n\n“I see this massive gap missing in the genre\, and I see that as an opportunity to grow the genre more. I’ve always loved country; I think Lainey [Wilson] said this at an award show\, that she was waiting for country to love her back\, and I truly felt that. \n\n\n\nHousman’s music breathes life into his truth\, telling stories that resonate across genre lines while serving as a beacon of representation for the LGBTQ+ community and his organic following of over 300k online followers.  \n\n\n\nRooted in lived experience and honesty\, he continues to write and perform songs that have become a safe space for all country fans\, especially those who have long felt unseen. “I don’t see any reason why anyone should feel excluded from anything\, let alone a genre a music\,” he says of his vision for his legacy. “Country music is so incredibly powerful and healing\, it should be for everyone”. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nABOUT ASPEN GAY SKI WEEK \n\n\n\nAspen Gay Ski Week (AGSW) is the oldest annual\, week-long LGBTQ+ ski event in the nation. A model for other LGBTQ+ ski weeks\, AGSW offers a unique vacation experience in the scenic and historic mountain town of Aspen\, Colorado. AGSW visitors enjoy four mountains of varied skiing and snowboarding terrain\, as well as cross-country skiing\, snowshoe\, and winter hiking trails in the Elk Mountains of Colorado. \n\n\n\nNot Just a Party – Aspen Gay Ski Week is a Non-Profit FundraiserAspen Gay Ski Week is also the annual fundraising event for AspenOUT\, a local non-profit and 501(c)(3) organization focused on anti-bullying and tolerance. AspenOUT has been producing this event since 1996 for the purpose of funding local programs and supporting national organizations that fit our mission. \n\n\n\nLEARN MORE ABOUT ASPEN GAY SKI WEEK: WEBSITE \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTICKETs\n\n\n\nVIEW CALENDAR\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDETAILS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\nSHOW @ 8:00 pm / DOORS @ 7:00 pm\n\n\n\nSTANDING ROOM SHOW / 21+ (VALID PHOTO ID REQUIRED)\n\n\n\nALL TICKET SALES ARE FINAL\n\n\n\nLimit of 6 tickets per purchaser\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresented By: The Arts Campus At Willits and Aspen Gay Ski Week

Originating as ski bums playing house parties in Salt Lake City’s Cottonwood Canyons\, they’ve evolved into a nationally touring band that always aims to have the most fun possible. Along with the skill and expertise that comes from nearly a decade of performing together\, they bring the energy of closing weekend at your favorite ski resort to the stage. Their unique blend of heartfelt songwriting\, high velocity instrumental excellence\, silly outfits\, and sing-along anthems has captivated audiences nationwide. Pixie and The Partygrass Boys invite the audience into their world every time they take the stage\, hoping to share a piece of the magic they’ve found on the mountain tops and in the desert canyons of their Utah home.  \n\n\n\nPixie and The Partygrass Boys have been touring extensively since the release of their 2018 debut EP “Utah Made” at countless venues across the USA. Notable festival appearances include becoming a five-year fixture at WinterWonderGrass\, as well as gracing the stages of Bourbon and Beyond\, High Sierra Music Festival\, Northwest String Summit\, Jam Cruise\, Rockygrass\, Walnut Valley Festival\, Blue Ox Music Festival\, Delfest\, Sawtooth Valley Gathering\, Gem and Jam\, and Hangtown. They have also directly supported musical greats such as Billy Strings\, The Infamous Stringdusters\, Grace Potter\, Lindsay Lou\, The Brothers Comatose\, and Lake Street Dive.  \n\n\n\nSigning with Americana Vibes in 2023 marked the release of their 4th album\, “The Chicken Coop Sessions: Vol. 1\,” honoring their origins with the nostalgic covers that brought them together for those canyon house parties so many years ago.  \n\n\n\nTheir latest album\, ‘Pixie & The Partygrass Boys\,’ explores the full spectrum of the human experience. Merging the traditional sounds of Appalachia with the unbridled wildness of the Mountain West\, Pixie and The Partygrass Boys weave a musical tapestry that leaps from the speakers to captivate the heart of the listener. Whether you’re wild and free (as all things are meant to be)\, dissolving a relationship into nothing\, skiing through knee deep snow in a secret ski spot (because there’s no friends on a powder day)\, or marching on to find love and beauty despite the troubling times we find ourselves living in\, everyone wild find a home in their music and lyrical content.  \n\n\n\nTheir self-titled release is a departure from their conventional stringband approach of the past. Recorded at Man vs. Music studios in their hometown of Salt Lake City\, produced and engineered by Utah legend Michael Sasich\, Pixie and the Partygrass Boys incorporated every tool in the toolbox to bring their songs to life. By enhancing their non-traditional bluegrass quintet with drums\, pedal steel\, trumpets\, ethereal guitar choirs\, baritone guitar\, electric bass\, and a makeshift choir composed of their closest friends\, they craft a sonic exploration of unconventional musical landscapes.  \n\n\n\nLooking forward to 2025 with fresh songs\, another album on the way\, and their first year of international touring\, Pixie and The Partygrass Boys will be bringing their high-energy show to a town near you. As exciting and energetic as their latest album is\, it is eclipsed by their high-octane live performances. Featuring high kicks\, fun outfits\, intimate stage banter\, dad jokes\, and high-velocity musical excellence\, their show is unforgettable and not to be missed. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nABOUT DJ CASTANEA\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFACEBOOK / SPOTIFY \n\n\n\nUnder the alias CASTANEA\, David Brown of Rising Appalachia brings his musical versatility to the forefront\, combining acoustic and electronic elements. Known for his skills on the upright bass and baritone guitar\, Brown also excels in turntables and production\, creating a sound that is as immersive as it is innovative.

These open rehearsals are a prelude to Dance Aspen’s full production\, Re:imagine\, which will be presented at the Wheeler. \n\n\n\nRe:imagine\, an evening of world premieres by American choreographers whose careers abroad in Europe have shaped bold new visions for contemporary ballet. \n\n\n\nAbout DanceAspen \n\n\n\nIn 2021\, in response to the dissolution of the Roaring Fork Valley’s professional dance company\, a determined group of dancers led by Laurel Winton established a bold\, new contemporary company. Their grassroots effort quickly garnered local support\, culminating in a sold-out debut at the Wheeler Opera House. Rooted in the principles of collaboration\, community\, and artistic excellence\, their company has developed a significant reputation\, showcasing internationally renowned choreographers and creating 30+ world premieres. DanceAspen has also graced prominent stages at the Vail Dance Festival and Aspen Music Festival\, demonstrating their dedication to producing new contemporary dance while enhancing the cultural vibrancy of the Aspen area. \n\n\n\nLearn more about DanceAspen: WEBSITE / INSTAGRAM \n\n\n\nAbout Emilie Leriche \n\n\n\nWEBSITE \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEmilie Leriche is a freelance performer and creator based in Göteborg\, Sweden.

He’s been named one of Rolling Stone’s Five Comics to Watch\, and recent appearances include The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon\, Late Show with Stephen Colbert\, and opening spots for Jerry Seinfeld as well as Gad Elmaleh at Carnegie Hall. Ryan is endearing stand-up lovers\, and his future is bright. In addition to regular television appearances and a non-stop headlining tour\, you can watch his first stand-up special\, the one-hour original Happy Face\, on Netflix. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nABOUT KEVIN FITZGERALD \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDr. Kevin Fitzgerald has performed stand-up comedy and been a staple of the Denver comedy scene since 1986. Since that time\, Kevin has opened for and worked with such diverse and legendary performers as Joan Rivers\, Bob Hope\, Kevin Nealon\, Brian Regan\, and Norm McDonald. He is probably best known for his eleven seasons on the popular Animal Planet television series Emergency Vets. Other television appearances include\, The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson\, The Maury Povich Show\, and The Today Show with Matt Lauer. Radio appearances include\, The Howard Stern Show\, one of the most popular segments ever of NPR’s Wait Wait Don’t Tell Me\, as well as being featured on Paul Harvey’s The \n\n\n\nRest of the Story. Dr. Fitzgerald put himself through school bouncing for various rock bands including The Who\, Willie Nelson\, Parliament Funkadelic\, and The Rolling Stones. In January\, 2024\, Kevin released a Dry Bar Comedy Special which is approaching one million views.  Kevin performs to rave reviews at clubs\, corporate\, and fundraising events and is in high-demand as a host/emcee\, comedian\, guest speaker\, and lecturer at private events\, conferences\, and veterinary meetings across the country. He believes his unusual dual-career as doctor and comedian offers him a unique perspective on life. Dr. Fitzgerald also believes none of us laugh enough. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVIEW CALENDAR\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDETAILS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSHOW @ 6:00 pm / DOORS @ 5:00 pm\n\n\n\nSHOW @ 9:00 PM / DOORS @ 8:30 PM\n\n\n\nSEATED SHOW / ALL AGE (UNDER 18 MUST BE ACCOMPANIED BY A LEGAL GUARDIAN)\n\n\n\nALL TICKET SALES ARE FINAL\n\n\n\nLimit of 4 tickets per purchaser\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresented By: The Arts Campus At Willits
