About Classical At Crane Isn’t A Drag With Dr. Viola Voilà

Due to popular demand, Castle Hill is proud to announce an autumn evening with Dr. Viola Voilà featuring a classical repertoire on viola and piano in the Great House Ballroom. Pianist Eion Clark will accompany Dr. Viola Voilà. A cookie and cider reception will follow.

The October 4th Concert, A Carmen Carnival, will include:

  • Camille Saint-Saëns Carnival of the Animals (selections)–Introduction and Royal March of the Lion
  • “Le Cygne” (The Swan)
  • Carl Maria von Weber Andante E Rondo
  • Benjamin Britten Lachrymae (Reflections on a Song of Dowland)
  • Georges Bizet Carmen Fantasy
  • Vittorio Monti’s Czardas.

Dr. Viola Voilà (she/her in drag) or Dr. Kasey Calebaugh (he/him out of drag) enjoys a wide range of musical endeavors as a violist, Suzuki music educator, and drag entertainer. They completed a Doctorate of Music Arts degree in Viola Performance from the Hartt School, graduating with the Regents’ Honor Award – the most prestigious award that the University of Hartford bestows on graduate students. They regularly perform with the Cape Ann Symphony and Nonconformist Orchestra (the first and only transgender/non-binary, LGBTQ+ professional orchestra), and serve on the Ipswich Cultural Council Board. As an active LGBTQ+ professional, they have been invited to speak at numerous high schools, perform at Hamilton-Wenham’s HRC Pride Picnic, World Pride DC 2025, & actively produce content with The Trustees.

Advance reservations are recommended.
