SUMMARY:Sister Act - Flat Rock Playhouse - 10/2-10/25
DESCRIPTION:When disco diva Deloris Van Cartier witnesses a crime\, she hides out in the last place anyone would look — a convent. Suddenly\, the sequins are swapped for habits\, and the nightclub turns into a nave. But when Deloris brings her unholy amount of soul to the choir loft\, heaven gets a whole new groove. \nSister Act is a holy-rolling\, soul-lifting celebration of sisterhood\, second chances\, and songs that raise the roof. As Deloris helps the sisters find their voices\, they just might change her heart in return. \nPart divine comedy\, part disco revival\, it’s proof that a little funk — and a lot of faith — can turn any sanctuary into a showstopper. \nEvent Times: 2:00 PM & 7:30 PM

SUMMARY:APLR Presents: Horse Lords with Brett W. Naucke & World Room
DESCRIPTION:PLR Presents: Horse Lords with Brett W. Naucke & World Room \nMonday\, October 12th\, 2026 \nAyurPrana Listening Room – 312 Haywood Rd\, Asheville\, NC 28806 \nDoors 6 PM || Show 7 PM \nHorse Lords \nHorse Lords were founded in Baltimore\, Maryland in 2010; they evolved from the experimental collective Teeth Mountain and began as a trio with drummer Sam Haberman\, guitarist Owen Gardner\, and bassist Max Eilbacher\, soon adding alto saxophonist Andrew Bernstein to the core ensemble. Though Horse Lords grew out of the fertile Baltimore noise and leftfield rock scene\, a storied environment for artists and weirdos that has nurtured many an influential outsider band (Lungfish\, Matmos)\, their approach is more omnivorous than the stippled rhythms of instrumental electric rock would indicate. \nAcross sixteen years of frequent touring\, Horse Lords have released ten studio\, live\, and collaboration albums in addition to a split EP with fellow Baltimoreans Lower Dens\, a handful of singles and compilation tracks. For RVNG’s FRKWYS series\, the band collaborated with Berlin-based composer Arnold Dreyblatt\, a onetime student of La Monte Young and Pauline Oliveros whose just intonation chamber music was a crucial part of the post-Fluxus Downtown New York City environment. \nWith the relocation of three of the four members to Germany beginning in 2021\, the potential for more further creative exploration\, and performance opportunities including the Moers Festival (with an 11-piece lineup\, interpreting Julius Eastman’s music as well as their own)\, the interdisciplinary phases of the band’s music was poised for fascinating new directions. The band observes “We are always trying to balance working within the limitations of the quartet and pushing beyond them. \nFor their second studio album on RVNG Intl.\, Demand To Be Taken To Heaven Alive!\, Horse Lords have followed this notion and augmented the instrumentation\, expanding the format slightly to include bass clarinetist Madison Greenstone (TAK Ensemble)\, trombonist Weston Olencki (Nate Wooley\, RAGE Thormbones) and vocalists Nina Guo (Departure Duo) and Evelyn Saylor (Holly Herndon\, Caterina Barbieri) across a program of twelve original compositions. \nDemand To Be Taken To Heaven Alive! is a reference to a line in a poem by Russian Futurist writer Vladimir Myakovsky\, and the band have also name-checked the Bauhaus weaver Anni Albers (wife of painter Josef Albers)\, Islamic geometrical patterning\, Dutch avant-garde group the Maciunas Ensemble (themselves named after Fluxus artist and typographer George Maciunas)\, composer/writers Tom Johnson\, Henry Flynt and Catherine Christer Hennix\, and musically draw from sources as diverse as Roscoe Holcolmb\, James Brown\, Kuwaiti/Bahraini sawt\, and electronic composers Maryanne Amacher and Jaap Vink. \nAs the members are keen to point out\, Demand To Be Taken To Heaven Alive! is “a bid for the flattening of time and perception in favor of greater goods [and] the iterative nature of reaching/building a paradise in this life\, not the next\,” and the new album at hand is an illuminating starting point for eternal nowness. \nWorld Room \nWorld Room is the trio of Ashley Paul (saxophone)\, Jake Pugh (electronics)\, and Shane Justice McCord (bass clarinet\, piano). The music revolves around minimalist compositions\, improvisation\, and live processing. They’ve been blessed to perform at the Black Mountain College ReHappening experimental arts festival\, Black Mountain College museum\, and to have recently supported Wolf Eyes. Their debut album is out this autumn on Orange Milk Records. \nBrett W​.​​ Naucke \nBrett W​.​​ Naucke is an American experimental composer and visual artist from Chicago\, IL currently based in Asheville\, NC. \nNaucke’s sonic output has been primarily focused on marrying an ever-evolving practice of synthesis with conceptual narratives. His most recent recordings have been released by a wide variety of acclaimed labels such as American Dreams\, Spectrum Spools\, Umor Rex\, L.I.E.S\, and Hausu Mountain in addition to many others since 2010. Beyond live performance\, Naucke has provided the original scores for several films\, sound design for interactive gaming\, and presented many works for multi-channel audio and video installations. \nAll ages\nEnding Time is an estimate\nTickets only sold through DICE.  Ticket Price will increase on the day of the show.  Save by buying before!

SUMMARY:Patio Show: Nate Hadley
DESCRIPTION:– LIMITED PATIO SEATING IS FIRST COME FIRST SERVE\nNATE HADLEY \nNate Hadley is a folk and Americana singer-songwriter based in Winchester\, VA\, blending modern songwriting with traditional Appalachian influences. Born in West Virginia\, raised just outside of Asheville NC\, his commanding voice carries a quiet vulnerability\, bringing stories shaped by his roots to life. \nA traveler at heart\, Nate has spent much of his life chasing that great abyss and collecting stories along the way. Though he’s called many places home\, he remains deeply connected to the mountains that raised him. That search for meaning\, belonging\, something just beyond the next bend\, is entangled in his lyrics. \nBluegrass and Appalachian traditions anchor the sonic foundation of his music\, paired with authentic lyrics that cut deep. Nate references artists like Pete Seeger\, Jason Isbell\, and The Lumineers\, as he aspires to write songs that feel both timeless and personal. \nNate released his debut EP Burn My Heart in December 2025\, with singles “Who You Were” and the title track emerging as fan favorites. He followed the release with “7 Year Rust\,” and his new songs “Burning Cold” and “Carolina girls” in May of this year. Onstage\, he’s steadily growing a community through honest personal performances across the East Coast.

SUMMARY:"Misery" at NC Stage
DESCRIPTION:Paul Sheldon has survived the crash — but he’s not sure that’s a good thing. \nRescued from a Colorado snowbank by his self-proclaimed number one fan\, the bestselling romance novelist finds himself bedridden and dependent on Annie Wilkes\, a devoted reader who offers to nurse Paul back to health. When Annie discovers that Paul has killed off her favorite character in his latest manuscript\, his situation goes from dire to something much worse. Based on Stephen King’s novel and adapted for the stage by William Goldman\, Misery is a white-knuckle battle of wills between a captive and his captor…and a darkly funny question about what we owe the people who love our work. \nRegular Adult Tickets: $27-$54 (depending on chosen seat) \nStudent Tickets: $15 (18 and under/ college and graduate students with student ID) \nWednesdays\, Thursdays\, Saturdays: 7:30pm ; Sundays: 2pm  \nFirst Friday (10/16): 7:30pm ; last two Fridays (10/23 & 10/30): 2pm \nAdditional matinees on the last two Saturdays (10/24 & 10/31): 2pm \nOpening Week “Choose Your Price” Nights: October 14th – 16th

Bridget will supply images in class for you to use already printed with archival inks on encaustic-friendly paper\, so no need to bring anything!  \nBridget will share her favorite method for mounting photographs on cradled wood panels\, as well as the step-by-step method she uses to layer colored pencil\, watercolor\, encaustic medium\, oil paint\, and pan pastels to bring the images to life. The effect is a lot like a wonderful\, vintage\, hand-tinted photograph! Add collage elements and textured encaustic paint into the encaustic\, and the results can be quirky\, energetic\, and much more modern!  \nStudents will have an opportunity to work with two images\, one sized for an 8×8 panel and one sized for an 8×10 panel. Students will be able to choose from a variety of black and white or sepia-toned “found ancestor” portraits\, landscapes\, and more.  \nWant to use your own images? Bridget will reach out a few weeks before class\, and for an extra fee\, students with digital photo experience can send two images to Bridget for formatting and printing. \nStudents will come away with two completed pieces\, as well as information on how to print and work with their own images to create “encaustic photo effects” in their own home studios. Participants will also receive basic instruction on safety and as well as techniques for working with encaustic medium and encaustic collage.

SUMMARY:Josiah and the Bonnevilles
DESCRIPTION:STANDING ROOM ONLY \nJOSIAH AND THE BONNEVILLES\nJosiah and the Bonnevilles is led by East Tennessee native Josiah Leming. A singer\, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist\, he began self producing his own music in 2016. He has varied between having a band and playing solo. He has become known for raw emotion and a profound connection to his audience\, which for his solo years took on the name of “The Bonnevilles”. 2024 saw Josiah and the Bonnevilles reaching new heights\, completing a headlining tour of thirty-three sold-out dates followed by a slew of international stops that proved his global following. After taking 2025 away from the public eye to work on new music\, 2026 brought the 4th JATB album “As Is’ and the accompaniment of a stellar cast of musicians both in studio and and stage.\nLeming comes by his empathy for working people honestly. He’s one of nine siblings\, born and raised in Morristown\, Tennessee\, right in the heart of Appalachia. His father was a factory worker. He taught himself piano when he was eight and was writing songs by thirteen. As a child he was intently aware of his community and intensely proud of his people\, something he thinks about even more in trying times. “Being a regular person\, working\, trying your best. I think that’s something to be proud of.

SUMMARY:HIGH JUNE w/ Cadalay
DESCRIPTION:Ages 18 and up \nHigh June doesn’t quite know what they are\, and honestly\, they’re fine with that. What they do know is that their sound is alternative\, boundless\, and unapologetically theirs. Drawing inspiration from a chaotic mix of genres\, High June delivers a unique sonic experience backed by high-energy performances and a complete disregard for sticking to the rules. \nFormed in 2021\, the band didn’t lock in their final lineup until 2023 at East Carolina University\, essentially becoming five unpredictable college students united by a love for music and a shared goal of avoiding “real jobs” at all costs. \nTheir debut single\, “Crazy ‘Bout You\,” dropped in July 2023. Since then\, they’ve released ten more tracks—none of which sound alike\, yet all unmistakably sound like High June. Each release is a new experiment\, a new risk\, and a step toward something bigger. The band is constantly chasing better songs\, tighter performances\, and any opportunity that helps them grow (and keep dodging that 9-to-5 life). \nNow riding the wave of their latest single\, “Last Cigarette\,” a gritty sex driven song that’s quickly gaining traction\, High June captures their raw emotion and passion in a way that feels both intimate and explosive. It’s messy\, it’s real\, and it’s only the beginning. \nCadalay is an alternative rock trio from Philadelphia\, currently based in Nashville\, Tennessee. The band has been writing and performing together since 2022 and has recently found success with their singles “The River” and “Forsaken”. Their energetic live performances have captured audiences and they continue to write and record in Nashville.

SUMMARY:The Enchanted Island of Socotra - Sufra Time at Mocha Box Coffeehouse
DESCRIPTION:There is a place where trees bleed crimson resin\, forests resemble enormous green umbrellas and landscapes look as though they were created for another planet. \nThat place is Socotra—Yemen’s enchanted island at the edge of the Arabian Sea. \nIn Socotra: The Enchanted Island\, the spectacular grand finale of Sufra Time: An Immersive Arabian Dining Journey\, you’ll travel to one of the most extraordinary and isolated places on Earth. Encounter the iconic dragon’s blood tree\, bizarre desert roses\, pristine beaches\, hidden caves\, towering dunes and rare species found nowhere else in the world. \nSeparated from mainland Arabia for millions of years\, Socotra became a living laboratory of evolution—a place where isolation allowed nature to follow its own astonishing path. Yet the island’s greatest wonder may be its people\, whose ancient language\, oral traditions and intimate knowledge of the land have helped preserve a culture as distinctive as Socotra’s natural environment. \nThis final journey also reveals a profound connection between Socotra and Appalachia. Both are places of exceptional biodiversity where mountains\, isolation and deep attachment to the land shaped fiercely distinctive cultures. In both\, generations preserved knowledge through storytelling\, depended upon close communities and understood that the natural world is not merely scenery—it is identity\, inheritance and home. \nThrough breathtaking imagery\, dramatic storytelling\, Arabian food and immersive audience participation\, Socotra brings the entire Sufra Time journey to an unforgettable climax. \nCome experience the island of dragon’s blood and ancient legends—a lost world of impossible landscapes\, astonishing life and human resilience. You may arrive believing you have seen beautiful places before. You will leave wondering how a place like Socotra can possibly be real.
