“400 UHURU RISING, A Musical Journey to Freedom” is a live stage production commemorating 400 years of the African American experience from 1619 when Africans were first documented as slaves in Virginia, to 2019 as their 400-year history in America is formally acknowledged by the United States (HR 1242) and around the world
.
“Uhuru” means “freedom” in Swahili and 400 Uhuru Rising takes audiences on the African Americans 400-year journey to freedom through music, accompanied by illuminating historical narratives. Musical presentations are from three time periods; Negro Spirituals during the time of slavery, Gospel music during the Civil Rights Movement, and contemporary Jazz, R&B, Hip-Hop and Spoken Word. Each musical performance denotes significant moments in the African Americans’ 400-year experience being guided by the Shows Narrator.

400 Uhuru Rising culminates with portrayals of historically opposing characters crossing the “Bridge of Peace and Reconciliation” representing the spirit of peace, forgiveness and reconciliation that is available to ALL people seeking their freedom and dignity. A special presentation by the African Union Ambassador to the United States, H.E. Dr. Arikana Chihombori-Quao, concludes this historic event.

As African Americans continue to persevere and rise to freedom from mental slavery, 400 Uhuru Rising chronicles their important contributions to the tapestry of American and world history.

Oh, what a story. Frankie Valli, who came to fame in 1962 as the lead singer of the Four Seasons, is hotter than ever in the 21st century. Thanks to the volcanic success of the Tony-winning musical Jersey Boys, which chronicles the life and times of Frankie and his legendary group, such classic songs as “Big Girls Don’t Cry,” “Walk Like a Man,” “Rag Doll,” and “Can’t Take My Eyes Off You” are all the rage all over again. As the play enters its third sold-out year on Broadway, and two touring companies of Jersey Boys travel around the U.S., the real Frankie Valli is packing concert halls coast to coast.

Other greatest hits include: “December 1963 (Oh, What Night),” “Sherry,” “ Big Girls Don’t Cry,” “My Eyes Adored You,” “Grease,” “Working My Way Back To You,” “Beggin’,” “The Night,” “Swearin’ To God,” “Who Loves You,” and more!

Graham Russell & Russell Hitchcock met on May 12, 1975, at rehearsals for “Jesus Christ Superstar” in Sydney, Australia; they became instant friends with their common love for The Beatles and, of course, singing.

In 1980 “Lost in Love” became the fastest selling single in the world, leaping to the top of all of the charts and was named Song of the Year. Seven top-five singles later, Air Supply at that time had equaled The Beatles’ run of consecutive top five singles. The albums Lost in Love, The One That You Love, Now & Forever, and The Greatest Hits sold in excess of 20 million copies.

The trademark sound of Russell Hitchcock’s soaring tenor voice and Graham Russell’s simple yet majestic songs created a unique sound that would forever be known as Air Supply.
