  • The Tiger Lilies

    Music and the Macabre

    Maestro Kurt Masur, formerly of the New York Philharmonic and currently of the National Orchestra of France drops by today. The National Orchestra of France begins its U.S. tour this week at Carnegie Hall. Also, London underground cabaret trio the Tiger Lillies join us on the eve of the premiere of their most recent project – the restaging of the cult hit Shockheaded Peter. Based on a 19th century children’s book full of cautionary tales that set the stage for Edward Gorey, Lemony Snicket and their ilk, Shockheaded Peter is a darkly funny, enjoyably gruesome show for all ages.
