The Big Mix

A Three-Week, Three-Holiday, One-of-a-Kind Performance Party   

This summer, discover a new kind of entertainment: a performance that’s part party, part performance art, part vaudeville, part variety show, and a whole new way to look at three of our most joyous, most provocative, most historically challenging and most uniquely American holidays.   

Conceived and directed by Little Island Artist-in-Residence Tina Landau, each week of The Big Mix will have a guest host and a rotating roster of guest stars. 

WEEK THREE – INDEPENDENCE DAY  

Performance dates: June 30 – July 3  

Hosted by Tony Award Winner Faith Prince and featuring Ty Defoe (Masculinity Max, “Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt”) Tony and Grammy Award nominee Judy Kuhn (Fiddler on the Roof, Fun Home), and special acts including FogoAzul NYC Brazilian American Style Samba Reggae Band, poetry and spoken word artist Denice Frohman, harmonicist Jiayi He, yoyo artist, Brian Klimowski, Heidi Latsky Dance, and composers and musicians Jaime Lozano & Florencia Cuenca.
