Located at 2537 Broadway at 95th Street, Symphony Space is a multi-disciplinary performing arts center that aims to connect art, ideas, and community together through performances and programming. The upcoming season continues well-known programs at the center, including Selected Shorts, Wall to Wall concerts, and much more. Symphony Space has offered entertainment for over four decades, and this upcoming season is sure to shine.

The 2022-23 season is a testament to the joys of the shared experience. Reuniting in-person last year, after so much time apart, was exhilarating. As we continue to invite authors, actors, and musicians to convene and grow their own work and communities at Symphony Space, we are committed to celebrating both individual artists and the power of the arts as a whole. We know that each event can be a source of delight, hope, and connection to all.

– Executive Director Kathy Landau

Musical entertainment for the season includes Wall to Wall Stephen Sondheim on Oct. 15, which will honor one of the musical theater’s greatest composers/lyricists. The free celebration features music, dance, and conversation spanning Sondheim’s entire career at the Peter Jay Sharp Theater. 

An artist-in-residence from bandleader, composer, drummer, and dhol player, Sunny Jain, will occur at the space on Jan. 28, Feb. 4, and Feb. 9, with music spanning multiple cultures and genres. Singer and legendary guitarist Richard Thompson will also grace the 2022-2023 season with a rare concert from Dec. 15 to Dec. 17. Audiences members are invited to submit song requests to Thompson which will remain unknown to him until the live performance onstage.

Other entertainment for the season features the expansive literature series, Selected Shorts, where renowned actors recreate well-known writers’ stories. The comedy series, Uptown Showdown, hosted by Matthew Love, will bring much laughter and energetic debate.
