Lyndhurst Presents
Date/Time: Various Dates Dec 14-26 Location: Lyndhurst Manor
M&M Performing Arts Presents; Mr. Dickens Tells A Christmas Carol
This one-hour play recreates the famous performance tour by Charles Dickens in 1867 with his classic tale bringing the travails of Ebenezer Scrooge, Bob Cratchit, and Tiny Tim alive. Taken from the original script, actor Michael Muldoon plays Charles Dickens and tells the well-loved tale in the second-floor art gallery of the beautifully decorated Lyndhurst Mansion meeting the different spirits and characters. A newspaper wrote of Dickens at the time, “He gave to every character a different voice, a different style, a different face.” We have endeavored to bring this spirit to our adaptation in a historic period setting.
No photography, videography, or cell phone use is permitted during the performance!
The play runs for an hour without intermission. Please plan on 90 minutes including check-in at the Welcome Center.

This holiday season, The Pocantico Center and Anywhere Theatre Company invite families to blast off into a hilarious, high-energy, intergalactic adventure like no other.

Once he tricks them with his clever riddles, he takes them back to the Space Witch to spin starlight into gold…forever!
But when he meets Stella Nova, a young shifter with a galactic heart, everything changes. Will he continue his tricks or find the courage to rewrite his destiny?
Directed and written by Peter Royston, Rumpelstiltskin in Space! takes folklore and fairy tales into the future with infectious music by folk-rock band The Altogether, colorful costumes and projected sets by artist Keni Thomas (aka thomcat23), and plenty of interactive adventure for everyone.

Tarrytown Music Hall Presents:
The Paul Winter Consort, with beloved vocalist Theresa Thomason, brings the timeless music of their legendary New York solstice events, in a joyous and profound celebration of the season of renewal and the greater family of life on Earth.
For the past 44 years, Paul Winter and his Consort have been artists-in-residence at the world’s largest cathedral, New York’s St John the Divine, where they have presented over 200 unique events, including annual Winter and Summer Solstice Celebrations. The Winter Solstice Celebration grew to become New York’s favorite holiday alternative to the Radio City Christmas Spectacular and the Nutcracker.
In contrast to their large-scale productions at the Cathedral, this performance will be more intimate. Winter notes, “While we will not have the dancers and theatrical effects that were possible in the world’s largest Cathedral, we will have the essence of our Solstice music, and we will feature, as always, the beloved voice of Theresa Thomason, who has been the ‘star’ of our Solstice Celebrations for over 25 years.”
Central to all the traditions of Solstice is the renewal of spirit, symbolized by the rebirth of the sun. Winter Solstice is a time for healing and for hope. It is a time to celebrate community and relatedness, and to honor the diversity and the unity of this great cornucopia of life on Earth. Says Winter, “In remembering the Solstice, we resonate once again with the rhythm of the cosmos and allow our hearts to embrace the optimism of our ancient knowledge that the light will overcome the darkness.”
The Consort includes Paul Winter on soprano sax, cellist Eugene Friesen, Brazilian pianist Henrique Eisenmann, Bulgarian bassist Peter Slavov, percussionist Bertram Lehmann, and the voice of Theresa Thomason.
Tickets $65.50-85.50

Westchester County Historical Society Presents: From Philipsburg to Yorktown: How Six Weeks Changed the War
Date and time: Wednesday, December 10, 2025, at 7:00 pm
Location: Greenburgh Public Library (320 Tarrytown Rd., Elmsford)
Description: In the summer of 1781, George Washington and the French General Rochambeau spent six critical weeks at the Philipsburg Encampment—a vast joint military camp in today’s Greenburgh where the French and American armies finally united and operated side-by-side for the first time—and at Rochambeau’s headquarters at today’s Odell House in Westchester. There, through what became known as the Grande Reconnaissance, the allies tested British defenses, built mutual trust, and made the bold strategic decision that led to Yorktown and victory in the American Revolution. Drawing on newly uncovered French sources and her forthcoming book, Dr. Iris de Rode will take the audience inside this turning point. The talk will be accompanied by exclusive clips from Ken Burns’s new documentary series, in which Dr. de Rode appears.
Presented by: Greenburgh Public Library, RW250, Friends of the Odell House

Pocantico Center Presents: Shen Wei: Still/Moving
Date/Time: October 18, 2025–April 18, 2026, Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays from 11 AM-3 PM Location: The Pocantico Center, 200 Lake Rd.
Tarrytown, NY 10591
Shen Wei: Still/Moving commemorates thirty years of Shen Wei’s visionary career as a dancer, choreographer, visual artist, filmmaker, and global cultural ambassador. This joint exhibition of The Pocantico Center of the Rockefeller Brothers Fund and the Katonah Museum of Art will illuminate the full scope of the artist’s trailblazing practice, offering viewers access to Shen Wei’s extensive paintings, works on paper, choreographic compositions, and short films, including new pieces never before exhibited in the United States.
At The Pocantico Center, the exhibition will focus on Shen Wei’s landscape paintings, reflecting his ongoing dialogue with Chinese traditional painting and nature. Often monumental in scale, these compositions possess a cinematic quality that compels the viewer’s eyes to dance. The exhibition at the KMA will emphasize the interdisciplinary nature of Shen Wei’s body of work: the generative influence of music on his dance practice and the central role of choreographed movement in his paintings. While each section stands alone, audiences are encouraged to visit both sites to experience the complete exhibition.
Shen Wei: Still/Moving is co-organized by The Pocantico Center of the Rockefeller Brothers Fund and the Katonah Museum of Art. The exhibition is curated by Michelle Yun Mapplethorpe, director and chief curator of the KMA, with support from Elizabeth Monti, associate curator at KMA, and Katrina London, curator at The Pocantico Center of the Rockefeller Brothers Fund.
