An Afternoon with George Gershwin

Presented by The Schenectady Theater for Children

At Hon. Karen B. Johnson Library

Every performance from the Great Mind Series includes a 1-hour presentation by an actor portraying an individual from the past who made a major impact on the way we live today. Join us while Jeff Stein portrays George Gershwin and speaks with the audience about life growing up in the early 1900's and how he came to compose "Rhapsody in Blue". He will then perform this piece as well as other compositions by Gershwin for everyone's enjoyment.
