SUMMARY:Staged Reading: In Equal Measure
DESCRIPTION:Events for May 24 – July 17            \n            \n                              \n                \n                  Music Concert                \n                          \n          \n\n          \n            \n              \n                \n              \n                              Buy Tickets\n                          \n            \n              share            \n          \n\n          \n            \n                              Please join us for a staged reading of In Equal Measure\, a play about a father grappling with his son’s death at the hands of police and the emotional and moral fallout when accountability does not come. The reading will be followed by a facilitated communal discussion with invited panelists\, focused on the themes of the play and their resonance in the current social and political climate. \nContent Advisory: \nThis staged reading includes references to police violence\, racial injustice\, and traumatic loss. Although minimally staged\, the material contains emotionally intense content that may be distressing for some viewers. \nSynopsis: \nIn Equal Measure is more than a visceral thriller; it is a mirror held up to a fractured society. When a law-abiding Black teenager is killed by police and the officer is exonerated\, the victim’s father makes a harrowing choice to trade his humanity for a receipt in blood. \nIn his pursuit of “an eye for an eye\,” he discovers that vengeance is a debt his heart cannot fully repay. As the line between justice and retribution collapses\, the story forces us to confront a haunting reality: when the systems meant to protect us fail\, who truly bears the cost? \nThis provocative drama examines one man’s descent into violence and the systemic failures that make his choices legible. It is a stark exploration of accountability\, communal grief\, and the devastating consequences that ripple when harm goes unrepaired. \n– \nDerek W. Wright (Playwright) is a retired NYPD 1st Grade Detective turned playwright & NYU-trained screenwriter. He is the creator of the award-winning film When the Dust Settles and the 2025 play In Equal Measure. From the precinct to the stage—he tells stories with grit and heart. \nRichard E. Waits (Actor & Coordinating Artist) is a veteran multidisciplinary performer who has appeared on Broadway and internationally and made his Metropolitan Opera debut in Bellini’s I Puritani. \nAlexandra Foucard is a Broadway actress whose credits include Fantine in Les Misérables\, Adelaide in the 50th Anniversary of Guys and Dolls\, Pansy in House of Flowers\, and Patricia in Richard Greenberg’s The Perplexed.

On this latest project\, Tsukamoto uses his composing and songwriting talents to hone in on crafting compelling\, memorable\, and singable melodies.

Come witness a performer who has been celebrated for his “delicate\, fluid\, and beautifully detailed” style (Acoustic Guitar magazine)\, and for his ability to take listeners on an “impressionistic journey” (Boston Herald). \nTsukamoto\, an alumnus of Berklee College of Music\, has been recognized for his talents on stages such as Blue Note in New York City\, Japanese National Television (NHK)\, International Storytelling Center\, and United Nations. He scored second place at the International Fingerstyle Guitar Championship in 2018 and 2022. \nSuggested Donation: $10\nBUY TICKETS below\, OR call: 201-836-3499 (Must call before Thurs. 3/19 at 5PM) \nIf you cannot pay the suggested donation\, please call 201-836-3499 or email aortega@puffinfoundation.org to ask for free reservation(s).

He will be joined by two exceptional German musicians: Peter Weniger on tenor saxophone and Jonas Burgwinkel on drums. \nThe trio’s debut album Gravity (2023\, Laika Records) was celebrated internationally; the legendary Down Beat Magazine drew comparisons to Sonny Rollins’ legendary Way Out West. \nTheir special guest will be pianist Glenn Zaleski\, who’s been one of the rising stars of the international jazz scene over the past years\, playing with saxophonist Melissa Aldena and vocalist Cécile McLorin Salvant\, among others. \nBorn in Flensburg\, Germany\, Martin Wind is among the most accomplished German jazz musicians working in the United States today. Known for his warm tone\, lyrical phrasing\, and stylistic breadth\, Wind is equally active as a soloist\, composer\, and sought-after sideman. He has performed and recorded with artists such as Mstislav Rostropovich\, John Scofield\, Pat Metheny\, Ken Peplowski\, Anat Cohen\, Philip Catherine\, Michael Brecker\, Ann Hampton Callaway\, and Sting\, and has contributed to numerous film soundtracks including True Grit\, The Secret Life of Walter Mitty\, and Gemini Man. As member of the Kennedy Center Honors Orchestra\, he has also appeared with world stars Aretha Franklin\, John Legend\, James Taylor\, Reneé Fleming\, and Herbie Hancock. As leader and co-leader\, Wind has released more than 30 albums\, among them Turn Out the Stars – Music Written or Inspired by Bill Evans (2014)\, My Astorian Queen (2021)\, and New York Bass Quartet – Air (2022)\, which DB Magazine heralded as “a bass manifesto.” Wind has received numerous honors\, including the Cultural Award of Schleswig-Holstein\, the Cognac Hennessy/Blue Note Jazz Award\, and a top placement at the 1995 Thelonious Monk Bass Competition in Washington\, D.C. \nSuggested Donation: $10\nBUY TICKETS below\, OR call: 201-836-3499 (Must call before Thurs. 4/9 at 5PM) \nIf you cannot pay the suggested donation\, please call 201-836-3499 or email aortega@puffinfoundation.org to ask for free reservation(s).

The comic irony of Korngold’s Much Ado About Nothing\, Schumann’s erratic Märchenbilder\, and Lalo’s wild Arlequin conjure up images of an ensemble of stock characters\, fairy tales\, and fantasies. \nBehind these masks of performance lie the dreamy\, introspective musings of Debussy\, Chausson\, and Reinecke\, a sharp contrast to their extroverted counterparts\, and a window into the source of creativity. As a whole\, these works weave together a vivid tapestry of humor\, performativity\, and poetry. \nSamuel Gray is a New York-based violinist\, violist\, and music contractor. In his performance career\, Sam has shared the stage with many great artists of our time\, including Cyndi Lauper\, Mariah Carey\, Darren Criss\, Titus Burgess\, Alex Newell\, Billy Eichner\, and Kate Baldwin. A fervent believer that music is healing to the soul\, he produces intimate chamber music performances around New York City. Sam performs on a 2014 Samuel Zygmuntowicz violin generously on loan from Jay and Michiko Jones. \nBenjamin T. Nylander is a composer and pianist living in Brooklyn. His work includes collaborations on various film and theatre projects\, a contemporary classical album performed with saxophonist Joshua Heaney\, and an international debut in Harbin\, China for the 2025 World Saxophone Congress. Most notably\, Nylander performs with violinist Samuel Gray\, with whom he founded the Hamilton-Hudson Chamber Music Academy in 2025. Nylander can regularly be found working as repetiteur for various opera studios in New York City. He teaches a large private studio of his own piano\, composition\, and theory students throughout the greater metropolitan area and beyond. \n– \nSuggested Donation: $10\nBUY TICKETS below\, OR call: 201-836-3499 (Must call before Thurs. 4/23 at 5PM) \nIf you cannot pay the suggested donation\, please call 201-836-3499 or email aortega@puffinfoundation.org to ask for free reservation(s).

He has established a career which includes performances with major symphony orchestras\, solo recitals\, and chamber music. He is a founding member of the Raphael Trio. \nViolinist Kae Nakano\, as a college student\, won third prize in the Romania International Music Competition. She has since established an active career which includes participation in major international music festivals\, performing with such superluminaries as Marta Argerich\, Seijo Ozawa\, and Vadim Repin. She is an active chamber music performer and member of the Albany Symphony. \nCellist Benjamin Larsen made his solo debut in 1999 at the Merryall Center for the Arts\, where a critic for the Danbury News Times called him “remarkably gifted” with “a charming\, warm tone.” He has performed concerti with the Hartford Symphony\, Farmington Valley Symphony\, and Musica Dolce Ensemble\, and has also performed solo and chamber performances in Asia and Europe. He is the founder and artistic director of Concerts on the Slope in Park Slope\, Brooklyn\, and maintains an active career as soloist and chamber musician. \n                          \n          \n        \n        \n          \n            \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n          \n          \n            \n          \n          \n            \n              Date: Sunday\, May 24                               \n            \n            \n              Time: 4:00 PM                            \n                          \n                Location: \n                \n                                                            \n                        20 Puffin Way                      \n                                                                                \n                        Teaneck                      \n                                                                                \n                        New Jersey                      \n                                                                                \n                        07666                      \n                                                                                            \n              \n                                      \n                Cost: $10.00 \n              \n                                                \n              \n	\n		\n			\n				\n	\n	\n\n				\n					Add to calendar				\n				\n	\n\n			\n			\n				\n											\n\n	\n		Google Calendar	\n\n											\n\n	\n		iCalendar	\n\n											\n\n	\n		Outlook 365	\n\n											\n\n	\n		Outlook Live	\n\n											\n\n	\n		Export .ics file	\n\n											\n\n	\n		Export Outlook .ics file	\n\n									\n			\n		\n	\n\n            \n          \n        \n      \n    \n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n	\n\n		\n			\n				\n					\n\n													\n								Rzewski and Mendelssohn 11/9/25\n							\n						\n						\n\n							\n															\n									\n										\n										Play\n									\n								\n							\n						\n\n					\n				\n			\n\n		\n		\n			\n				\n					\n						videoTextBlockModalblock_81bf1afa4c589b2b82b273b2a8b6bfe3Title\n						\n							×\n						\n					\n					\n						\n							\n								\n								Your browser does not support the video tag.\n							\n							\n						\n					\n					\n						Close Popup\n					\n				\n			\n		\n\n	\n\n\n\n\n	\n		\n			\n				\n					\n						\n							\n								\n																			Prepare For Your Visit\nGot your reservations?

The piece utilizes creative borrowing from a multitude of different composers and gives the listener the feeling that the music is completely improvised. \nFollowing Jake Hart’s solo piano performance\, jazz guitarist John Hart will perform standards and original music with his trio\, featuring Bill Moring on bass and Andy Watson on drums. The evening’s program will feature selections from his latest album New Mantra\, released last year under SteepleChase Records. The project marks John’s 17th album as leader. \nJake Hart is a pianist and composer signed with Sunnyside Records\, which released his debut album Collage in 2024. The album received praise in Los Angeles Jazz Scene\, where Scott Yanow wrote about how “the two Parts sound spontaneous and bridge the gap between modern classical music and jazz.” In addition\, Jake has also participated in a multitude of international competitions and has performed at notable venues including Birdland Jazz Club\, Mezzrow and the Umbria Jazz Festival. \nA fixture on the New York music scene for 40 years\, John Hart has distinguished himself as a band leader with 17 CDs (including releases on such prestigious labels as Blue Note and Concord) as well as a first-call sideman to the stars\, including a sixteen-year tenure with organist Jack McDuff. Other associations include Lou Donaldson\, James Moody\, Jon Hendricks\, Jimmy Smith\, Brian Blade\, Chris Potter\, Larry Goldings\, Bob Belden\, Rick Margitza\, Javon Jackson and the Maria Schneider Orchestra. A prolific recording artist\, John has appeared on 100-plus CDs as a sideman. \nSuggested Donation: $10\nBUY TICKETS below\, OR call: 201-836-3499 (Must call before Thurs. 6/4 at 5PM) \nIf you cannot pay the suggested donation\, please call 201-836-3499 or email aortega@puffinfoundation.org to ask for free reservation(s).

World-renowned percussionist and multi-instrumentalist Ronnie Burrage — joined by guitarist Yuto Kanazawa — weaves together live\, improvised music across genres with vivid personal stories drawn from his extraordinary life and upcoming memoir. Expect the unexpected: Burrage is a musician who composes in the moment\, sculpting soundscapes from scratch and drawing the audience into the living\, breathing act of creation. \nWith a discography spanning over 170 recordings and a career that has placed him alongside McCoy Tyner\, Sonny Rollins\, and Wayne Shorter\, Ronnie Burrage has spent decades at the forefront of jazz innovation. Recognized as one of the finest jazz musicians on the international scene\, he brings to Puffin something rarer than a performance — a conversation between a master artist\, his instrument\, and everyone in the room. \nSuggested Donation: $10\nBUY TICKETS below\, OR call: 201-836-3499 (Must call before Thurs. 7/16 at 5PM) \nIf you cannot pay the suggested donation\, please call 201-836-3499 or email aortega@puffinfoundation.org to ask for free reservation(s).
