Shoebert's Unfinished Journey

Inspired by the true story of Beverly's beloved gray seal, Shoebert's Unfinished Journey is a joyful new family operetta by Arpeggione Ensemble. When Shoebert the seal found his way to a former mill pond, he unexpectedly galumphed into the world of another Schubert—composer Franz Schubert, whose songs celebrate mills, water, and fish. In Arpeggione’s heartwarming production, Shoebert is a seal who loves music. As he searches for his own song, he encounters remarkable figures from the history of the North Shore’s shoe and textile industries, from inventor Jan Matzeliger to artist Virginia Lee Burton. Along the way, he discovers not only a song, but a place to belong. Featuring two extraordinary singer-storytellers, live chamber music on period instruments, and original watercolor illustrations, this charming production celebrates Beverly’s past and present with humor, heart, and imagination. Created as part of Beverly 400+, Shoebert’s Unfinished Journey is a delightful experience for children, families, and anyone who loves a good story.

Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror

Sink your fangs into this Halloween with Arpeggione. Experience the 1922 silent film Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror with a live performance of the original score for theater orchestra. Arpeggione will be performing on historical instruments from the early 20th century, including harmonium, flute, clarinet, and strings.&nbsp; From the eerily corpse-like appearance of Max Schreck as Orlok to the oft parodied staircase camera shot at the film’s climax, Nosferatu set the standard for the modern horror film as well as the genre of vampire films. As the earliest adaptation of Bram Stoker’s Dracula for film, Nosferatu is the source of several of the most enduring aspects of modern day vampire lore. Fans of horror, music enthusiasts, vintage aficionados… see and hear Nosferatu as it would have sounded when it was first screened. Hurry– these tickets expire at dawn!&nbsp;
