The Victory Vertical Project uses descriptive vignettes accompanied by piano music in many styles – classical, popular, boogie-woogie, jazz, and movie soundtracks – to bring to life a remarkable account of courage, solidarity, and the power of music. Garik Pedersen, a Steinway artist, performs music by a varied and extensive list of composers to provide fascinating, beautiful, and moving glimpses into the war that, more than any other, united us as a people with a common purpose. The Victory Vertical Project celebrates the power of music to lift morale, bring people together, provide physical and mental healing, and instill a profound sense of purpose.

At a time when we occasionally cross paths with insolent “Karens,” it’s nice to know that some good Karens exist.

They bring a different and hilarious point of view to this clever and clean comedy show.
