2026 Annual Member Meeting

iTheatre Saratoga presents a World Premiere production of I SAW HITLER

by Mary Jane Hansen based on the writings of Dorothy Thompson

November 13th, 14th, 20th, and 21st 7:30 PM

November 15th and 22nd 2:00 PM

As fascism takes root in Germany, renowned American journalist DorothyThompson travels once again to Berlin to report on the response of German citizens to their lost sovereignty and reactions to The Night of Long Knives (the Nazi purge of its own revolutionaries). She is almost instantly issued an Order of Expulsion as punishment for an unflattering interview with the Führer conducted three years prior. With just 24 hours before she will be forcibly removed from the country— an unprecedented action against a foreign correspondent— Ms. Thompson must fight for more time and the opportunity to conduct her interviews on behalf of the free press.

"As far as I can see, I was really put out of Germany for the crime of blasphemy. My offense was to think that Hitler is just an ordinary man, after all. That is a crime in the reigning cult in Germany, which says Mr. Hitler is a messiah sent of God to save the German people.”

I SAW HITLER is a multi-media presentation and premieres at Saratoga Arts located at 320 Broadway in Saratoga Springs, NY. Performances are Nov. 13, 14, 20, 21 at 7:30pm and Nov. 15, 22 at 2pm. 

iTheatre Saratoga is a non-profit professional theatre in the Capital District currently celebrating their 16th season. For more information on iTheatre Saratoga’s 2026 season: https://www.itheatresaratoga.org/

Improve Spaces Performance

Wednesday, November 18th 7:00-9:00 PM

Improv Spaces is presenting a very special pairing of performances on Wednesday, November 18 from 7–9pm at Saratoga Arts, featuring New York artists Leo Chang performing a solo set and a trio of Eli Wallace, Joe Moffett, and Michael Foster.

We are delighted to welcome back Eli Wallace and Joe Moffett, whom we have previously presented in separate Improv Spaces programs. This time they will be joined by Michael Foster, performing material from their recent album Disquiet.

Michael Foster is a NYC-based saxophonist, improviser, composer, and curator. His work as both a performer and curator is focused on the intersection of improvisation and queer identity and its implications across myriad forms of performance practice.

Joe Moffett is a trumpeter and improviser based in New York. He approaches his work with an interest in unconventional sounds and forms and the integration of improvisation and collective composition into a musical praxis.

Eli Wallace is a pianist, improviser, and composer who resides in Brooklyn, NY, where he develops his own projects and collaborates with like-minded artists. His work as a pianist displays a proclivity for non-idiomatic free improvisation, incorporating vast and elaborate piano preparations that John Lewis (The Guardian) describes as “…pushing the boundaries of the prepared piano.”

Leo Chang is a Korean-born, Queens-based experimental musician, improviser, composer, and sound artist. Informed by his transient lived experience, Leo plays with sounds, instruments, forms, and social practices outside of their original contexts. He does so using electronic audio processing and sound design, performance, individual and group improvisation, graphical notation, and text scores. Leo is also a 2026–2028 Princeton Arts Fellow, 2026 NYSCA/NYFA Artist Fellow, 2023–25 Commissioned and Resident Artist at Roulette Intermedium, and 2024 Center for Performance Research Artist-in-Residence, and has received grants from the Korea Foundation, NYFA Queens Arts Fund, and Brooklyn Arts Council.

Kindred Spirits-Monthly Music Series

Monday, November 23rd, 2026, 6:30-8:00 PM

Throughout history, music has inspired sorrow, outrage, and hatred, as well as love, courage, unity, and celebration. Kindred Spirits Music Series is a special opportunity to gather our community together by sharing the music that continues to weave us together - songs expressing resistance of injustice, defending our rights, and reconciling with those holding differing opinions by focusing on our similarities. Each month’s “themed” gathering includes music to reflect on, songs performed by regional musicians, and “sing-alongs” of familiar anthems that have helped us “overcome.” We are looking forward to raising our voices together!

Nov 23 • GRATITUDE • Nicholas Payton

All events are accessible, free, and open to the public.
