The divorce of the century turned Jocelyne Wildenstein – often referred to in the media as ‘The Catwoman’ – into a 90s tabloid obsession, bringing the private Wildenstein art empire into the spotlight. THE LION QUEEN explores the life of a woman shaped by extraordinary wealth and scrutiny, offering a revealing look at the personal cost of fame and fortune.
The screening will be followed by a conversation with producer, Caroline Baron, HamptonsFilm Co-Chair, Alec Baldwin, and HamptonsFilm Chief Creative Officer, David Nugent.

Traversing the Atlantic, Indian and Pacific Oceans, Silkroad presents a brand new trio seamlessly blending three disparate narratives of language and sound. Three internationally acclaimed, genre-bending artists who each have been credited with reshaping the landscape of their respective instruments through their unique improvisational styles and compositional voices.
Hailing from Damascus, Syria, Kinan Azmeh has been taking the international music scene by storm with his unique blending of Eastern and Western styles, bombastic improvisation and large-scale compositions for orchestras such as the New York Philharmonic, the London Philharmonic and the Seattle Symphony.
Acclaimed composer and instrumentalist Kaoru Watanabe‘s work is grounded in traditional Japanese music while imbued with contemporary jazz, improvisation, and experimental music elements, working with such figures as Laurie Anderson, Jason Moran and André 3000.
Scottish harper and composer Maeve Gilchrist has been credited with bringing the Celtic harp to new levels of visibility through her unique improvisational and textural approach to the instrument and her collaborations with artists such as from Arooj Aftab, Yo-Yo Ma, The Scottish Chamber Orchestra and Esperanza Spalding.
Through this unique collaboration, hear three very different voices in conversation with one another as they find the sweet spots of stylistic intersection, dramatic contrast and virtuosity, forging an entirely new aesthetic that feels as organic as can be.

MARIAN, OR THE TRUE TALE OF ROBIN HOOD: TEEN EDITION
By Adam Szymkowicz
A gender-bending, patriarchy-smashing, hilarious new take on the classic tale, adapted for performance by teen actors for family audiences. Robin Hood is (and has always been) Maid Marian in disguise and leads a motley group of Merry Men (few of whom are actually men) against the greedy Prince John. As the poor get poorer and the rich get richer, who will stand for the vulnerable if not Robin? What is the cost of revealing your true self in a time of trouble? Modern concerns and romantic entanglements clash on the battlefield and on the ramparts of Nottingham Castle in this play about selfishness, selflessness, love deferred and the fight. Always the fight. The fight must go on.
Next / Now brings a cohort of emerging artists from NYU’s Clive Davis Institute of Recorded Music to Guild Hall for an evening of original performance, hosted by JD Samson and Jeff Peretz. The program reflects a new generation working at the intersection of sound, storytelling, and technology.
Spanning genres and approaches—from intimate songwriting to experimental production—the evening highlights work that is both immediate and in development, offering a rare glimpse into process as much as performance.
Artists to be announced.
The Best of The Second City, an unforgettable evening from the world’s most influential name in comedy. This high-energy performance draws from The Second City’s rich archive, bringing together iconic material and fresh perspectives for a dynamic, contemporary showcase.

Each piece is crafted by some of the sharpest comedic minds and reimagined by today’s boldest voices.
With its signature mix of wit, satire, and spontaneity, The Best of The Second City captures the spirit of a company that continues to shape the comedy landscape. Join us at Guild Hall for a night of smart, fearless humor and nonstop laughs.
