SUMMARY:Jazz At The Island: Mezzotono / Nesrine
DESCRIPTION:Jazz under the stars on Sharjah’s Al Noor Island – though the evening might be stretching the definition of ‘jazz’. The headliners are Mezzotono\, the Italian a cappella five-voice group with a unique style which blends vocal harmonies\, beatboxing\, and vocal percussion. They aim to cover many music styles from jazz to pop via mambo\, tango\, folk music (especially Italian – they’re from Italy)\, big band jazz and classical. And the Franco-Algerian singer\, songwriter and cellist Nesrine (above) is another breaker of genre boundaries\, usually employing a unique lineup of voice\, cello\, and percussion to deliver a musical fusion that spans the Mediterranean region from North Africa to Southern Europe. \nWhatever the definitions\, though\, this is an evening that we’d highly recommend. \nThe schedule: \n4-5pm Tour of the island and the Butterfly House\n5-5.30pm Vocal jazz workshop with Mezzotono (included in the ticket price\, we think\, but first come first served)\n6-7pm Performance by Sens8tion (Sharjah Performing Arts Academy dance troupe)\n7-8.30pm Interval for dinner\n8.30-9.30pm Mezzotono\n9.30-10.30pm Nesrine \nThe AED 100 ticket price buys you entry to the music\, but there’s also a 250 AED option which includes dinner before the main acts; and a AED 450 deal for entry on both nights including dinner.

SUMMARY:Singin’ in the Rain
DESCRIPTION:The highly successful stage adaptation of the iconic MGM film about silent film actors who face their share of struggles over the gradual transition to talkies. The plot isn’t what matters\, of course; it’s the songs – classics like Good Morning\, Make ’em Laugh\, Moses Supposes\, and of course Singin’ in the Rain – and the dancing (the choreography by Andrew Wright is just great). There will also be live rain showers on stage every night … The result is a celebration of Hollywood’s golden era with romance\, humour and wall-to-wall entertainment. \nThere are further shows to 14 December: \n\n\n6 Dec 8pm\n7 Dec 2pm\n7 Dec 7pm\n8 Dec 2pm\n8 Dec 7pm\n9 Dec no show\n10 Dec 8pm\n11 Dec 8pm\n12 Dec 8pm\n13 Dec 8pm\n14 Dec 2pm\n14 Dec 8pm
