SUMMARY:World Premiere! Singing Revolution: The Musical
DESCRIPTION:Singing Revolution is a new musical with a catchy Euro pop score. It tells the tale of star-crossed lovers against the beautiful\, moving and timeless true story of Estonia’s 1987 song-filled\, peaceful uprising\, known the world over as the “Singing Revolution” against the Soviet Union\, which eventually restored the Republic of Estonia’s independence in 1991.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTony Spinosa\, Co-creator: As a passionate theatre professional for over 30 years\, I have always been on the lookout for the inspiration for an original Broadway musical. When I first learned about Estonia’s Singing Revolution\, a light bulb went off in my head; people using the power of peaceful resistance\, literally singing as a shield against Soviet attacks\, is a story that I know I needed to tell. What a beautiful\, moving and timeless story\, and the premise for the perfect musical. \n\n\n\nThe Musical premieres in Los Angeles\, January 15\, 2022! Get your tickets and share the word today!

SUMMARY:Online Discussion: Parliamentary Perspectives of the Ukraine-Russia Crisis

Russia’s continued election meddling\, border revisionism\, and continued provocations against Central and Eastern European NATO members widen the lens of this crisis\, especially as Russian demands have included a wide-reaching restructuring of Europe’s post-Cold War security system. In response\, European capitals from Tallinn to London have been in a flurry of policy debates and actions\, including negotiations\, arms shipments\, and sanctions coordination to push back against Russian aggression. As this crisis unfolds\, Europe’s policymakers and legislators will play an important role in approving and institutionalizing European states’ efforts to counter Russia’s aggression. To discuss what actions Europe can take in the face of the escalating crisis\, the Europe Center is proud to host legislators and parliamentarians from across Europe’s national parliaments and the European Parliament to discuss their perspectives of the crisis and what role European countries and European institutions must play in resolving it. This discussion will take place on Zoom and will be broadcast on YouTube\, Twitter\, and Facebook To receive the event information\, please register using the button below. After registering\, you will receive a confirmation email with information on how to watch the event. \n\n\n\n\nRSVP to attend online\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n About the Europe Center The Europe Center promotes the leadership and strategies required to bolster the vision of a strong Europe advancing a better global future in partnership with the United States. The Center seeks to understand change in Europe\, galvanize leadership and forge a strategy of renewal.   For more information\, visit atlanticcouncil.org and follow us on Twitter @ACEurope.
