Olivier Award-winner Jack Lowden (Slow Horses, Dunkirk) is joined by Emmy and BAFTA-winner Martin Freeman (The Hobbit, The Responder) in the critically acclaimed and subversively funny new play by David Ireland.
After years in the 12-step programme of Alcoholics Anonymous, James becomes a sponsor to newcomer Luka. The pair bond over black coffee, trade stories and build a fragile friendship out of their shared experiences. But as Luka approaches step five – the moment of confession – dangerous truths emerge, threatening the trust on which both of their recoveries depend.
Finn den Hertog directs the provocative and entertaining production filmed live from @sohoplace on London’s West End.

Fred Elser First Sunday Science: Living with Ecological Purpose
2025-12-07 14:00 - 15:00
Sunday, December 7, 2025 2–3pm, Floren Family Environmental Center at Innis Arden Cottage, Greenwich Point Park, Old Greenwich, CT
Join Scott Smith for a discussion on how you can start composting on your own or pitch in on a heap with your neighbors or community garden. Scott Smith is a longtime Connecticut resident, avid gardener and author of “On Compost: A Year in the Life of a Suburban Garden” (Christmas Lake Press, 2024). “On Compost” chronicles the cultivation of a suburban yard as a way to highlight the larger story of how to live more sustainably and with ecological purpose—and lots of freshly made living soil. The book illustrates how composting can reduce food and yard waste, enrich soil, boost biodiversity and combat climate change. More than just a guide to composting, ‘On Compost’ shows how a simple backyard compost heap can bring neighbors together, foster a sense of community, and create shared experiences.
In keeping with the Seaside Center’s mission to protect and value the ecological riches of the Long Island Sound, Smith will also discuss the time-honored use of a local resource—nutrient-rich seaweed, sustainably harvested from a nearby beach. A soil conditioner prized by generations of farmers and gardeners alike, seaweed contains trace elements, micro-nutrients and plant growth compounds you’ll never find in any chemical fertilizer—or even in most organic ones.
This program is free of charge. No beach pass is required if you are attending the Fred Elser First Sunday Science. Please let them know at the gate you are attending the Bruce Museum Seaside Center lecture. First Sunday Science programs take place at the Floren Family Environmental Center at Innis Arden Cottage, Greenwich Point Park, Old Greenwich, CT.

First Folk Sunday - Sentimental Journey
2025-12-07 12:30 - 14:30 | Saugatuck Rowing and Fitness Club, 521 Riverside Avenue, Westport, CT, 06880, United States
SUZANNE SHERIDAN and Dave Childs (keyboards) and John Mobilio (standup bass) return to the 40’s on Pearl Harbor Day, December 7. Singing the music from the American songbook is a first for First Folk Sunday but the opportunity was simply irresistible for a songstress with the versatility of SUZANNE SHERIDAN.
Someone once said, “If it never gets old, it’s folk music”. With that in mind, Gershwin never gets old, Cole Porter never gets old. The American standard repertoire of the 40’s, which defined and enhanced the social order during World War II, remains popular to this day.
First Folk Sunday is approaching the last concert of its third season on December 7 and looking forward to its fourth season at the Saugatuck Rowing Club starting July 5, 2026.
In addition to the purchase of a ticket, the culinary team at Saugatuck Rowing Club, 521 Riverside Avenue, offers a First Folk Sunday brunch menu at each show along with craft cocktails and other beverages. Doors open at noon and the music begins at 12:30. Tickets are $20 each and can be purchased on the First Folk Sunday website, https://firstfolksunday.com

Saturday, December 6, 2025 | 7 pm
$10 Members and Students; $15 General Admission
Join us for an intimate duo performance by composer and percussionist Sarah Hennies and bassist Tristan Kasten-Krause, presented in connection with Zak Prekop: Durations. Hennies and Kasten-Krause will present a 40-60 minute set of experimental music within the Museum’s galleries, offering a meditative, resonant experience that blurs the boundaries between sound, space, and visual art.
Sarah Hennies is known for her immersive and durational performances that explore psychoacoustic phenomena, queerness, and the act of listening. Her duo with Kasten-Krause combines sensitivity and restraint, crafting quiet, expansive works that unfold gradually over time.
This event is presented in conjunction with Zak Prekop: Durations (on view through January 11, 2026), an exhibition exploring visual rhythm, repetition, and the temporality of painting. It also marks the launch of Zak Prekop’s first museum publication. This fully illustrated, 32-page softcover catalogue features bold new abstract paintings by the artist, along with an interview between Prekop and curator Eduardo Andres Alfonso. The catalogue will be available for purchase at the event.

Baroque Portrait Photography Adult Workshop with Lewis Derogene
2025-12-06 15:00 - 17:00 | MoCA CT, 19 Newtown Turnpike, Westport, Connecticut, 06880, United States
We invite you for an evening of classical portrait-making with artist and photographer Lewis Derogene. In this hands-on workshop, you’ll explore how to channel the elegance and drama of Baroque paintings into your own portrait photography.
We’ll begin with a quick look at masterworks by painters like Vermeer and Rembrandt to better understand techniques—like chiaroscuro—that defined the era. Then, we’ll dive into how those same effects can be recreated through lighting, composition, and set design.
Bring your camera or smartphone + bring a partner too, as you’ll be photographing each other! You’ll learn how to set up lighting and backdrops, use fabric and props to build a scene, and frame portraits that feel both timeless and personal.
At the end of class, participants will upload their top shots for a group critique. Images will be displayed on a large monitor for constructive feedback and shared inspiration.
Participants are encouraged to share their final portraits on Instagram and tag @MoCA_CT.

Quilting Bee Demo with Peace by Piece: The Norwalk Community Quilt Project

Participants will also be invited to contribute squares to our community quilting project (supplies provided).
About the Exhibition: Stitching Time features 12 quilts created by men who are incarcerated in the Louisiana State Penitentiary, also known as Angola Prison. These works of art, and accompanying recorded interviews, tell the story of a unique inside-outside quilt collaboration. The exhibition focuses our attention on the quilt creators, people often forgotten by society when discussing the history of the U.S. criminal justice system. Also on view in the gallery will be Give Me Life, a selection of works from women artists presently or formerly incarcerated at York Correctional Institution, a maximum security state prison in Niantic, CT, courtesy of Community Partners in Action (CPA). The CPA’s Prison Arts program was initiated in 1978 and is one of the longest-running projects of its kind in the United States. Founded in 1875, CPA is celebrating 150 years of working within the criminal justice system. For more information, click here.
