After the show, stay for a TalkBack to delve deeper into the experience with the artists. About Between Riverside and Crazy Ex-cop Walter “Pops” Washington is NOT one to let things go. NOT the memory of his recently deceased wife. NOT the racially-charged lawsuit he filed years ago against the NYPD. And most definitely NOT the impressive rent-controlled apartment he shares with his parolee son and colorful surrogate family. But, eviction notices and ultimatums are piling up, and Pops is caught between losing his honor and losing his home. Bringing together the poetic and the profane, this 2015 Pulitzer Prize winner is an exuberant and darkly comic tale of truth, family, and pride. Get your $10 tickets today! Click here<https://groupmatics.events/> and use promo code CPHINDUSTRY. There will be a $2.50 processing fee upon checkout.

While many of the tunes were brought here by settlers, others were created here on American soil—the truest form of Americana. Rich in history and tradition, this toe-tapping music has stood the test of time by being passed on by ear rather than being written down. Down the Road Old-Time String Band keeps this tradition alive and loves to share it with audiences of all ages.
