#CoralGablesArts

Celebrate the creative life force through movement, storytelling, and bold exploration at the Sanctuary of the Arts with Peter London Global Dance Company. Featuring works by Stephanie Franco, Mar’Kayla Michel, and Kayin Knighton, the program explores the intersection of lived experience, artistic expression, and gender within society’s cultural landscape.

Peter London’s latest work for six male dancers dives into an intense emotional terrain where traditional ideas of beauty are challenged and transformed, embracing what Martha Graham described as “divine ugliness.”

The evening also includes A Folk’s Tale by Jamar Roberts, reflecting the depth and resilience of African American experiences, and concludes with London’s Caribbean Suite, a vibrant, carnival inspired finale set to music by Etienne Charles.

For 60 years, Queen Elizabeth II met with each of her 12 prime ministers in a private weekly meeting. This meeting is known as The Audience. From Winston Churchill to Margaret Thatcher and David Cameron, the Queen advised her prime ministers on matters both public and personal. Through these private audiences, we see glimpses of the woman behind the crown and witness the moments that shaped a monarch. Peter Morgan’s Netflix phenomenon The Crown was based on this hit play that was captured live from London’s West End in 2013 and went on to become one of the most-watched NT Live productions.

This production includes an intermission. The screening on Friday, April 4 features open captions as part of our commitment to make programs more accessible to d/Deaf and hard of hearing audiences.

One of the most endearing films ever made for children, My Neighbor Totoro, is a deceptively simple tale of two girls, Satsuki and Mei, who move with their father to a new house in the countryside while he cares for their ailing mother.

They soon discover that the surrounding forests are home to a family of Totoros, gentle but powerful creatures who live in a huge and ancient camphor tree and are seen only by children. But beneath the film’s playfulness and narrative simplicity lie depths of wisdom.

As with much of Miyazaki’s work, My Neighbor Totoro is infused with an almost spiritual reverence for the power of nature. Like Satsuki and Mei, audiences are left with a sense of wonder at the beauty, mystery, and preciousness of the world around us.

Easter Weekend Special Screening

For sheer pageantry and spectacle, few motion pictures can claim to equal the splendor of Cecil B. DeMille’s 1956 remake of his epic The Ten Commandments. Filmed in Egypt and the Sinai with one of the biggest sets ever constructed for a motion picture, this version tells the story of the life of Moses (Charlton Heston), once favored in the Pharaoh’s (Yul Brynner) household, who turned his back on a privileged life to lead his people to freedom.

This film includes a 10-minute intermission.

Explores what life can and will look like without coral reefs. Told through the words of leading scientists, the film examines Stony Coral Tissue Loss Disease.

From its controversial origins in 2014 to the present day, scientists are still working to understand what this disease is and how to stop it. At the heart of the issue is human impact. Without significant changes to everyday life and corporate cooperation, we risk losing one of the most important animals on Earth—coral.
