City Parks Foundation proudly announces the 2012 season of SummerStage presented by AT&T, New York’s largest free performing arts festival, bringing over 110 free performances to eighteen parks throughout the five boroughs. With performances ranging from American pop, Latin and world music to dance, comedy and theater, SummerStage fills a vital niche in New York City’s summer arts festival landscape. Cutting edge artists from over 15 countries will perform at SummerStage, presenting the best of what is happening globally in the arts world as well as in the heart of the city. Since its inception twenty-seven years ago, more than six million people from New York City and around the world have enjoyed SummerStage. The festival runs from June 6th until August 30th.
“AT&T* is proud to be the first city-wide sponsor of SummerStage, a quintessential New York City event,” said Tom DeVito, AT&T’s vice president and general manager for New York and New Jersey. “We plan to be on-site at performances in Central Park and every borough to provide New Yorkers with a more interactive experience than ever before including the opportunity to check out the latest technologies on the market and access to charging stations for concert-goers.”
This season, in addition to its impressive lineup, City Parks Foundation’s SummerStage has commissioned a number of artists to create four unique programs that will premiere for the first time ever at SummerStage. These four works span the worlds of music, dance and theater and feature some of the brightest rising stars, as well as several critically acclaimed artists. These distinctive events further SummerStage’s dedication to presenting the best artists from around the world, and playing an active role in promoting artistic creativity.
Numerous artists have chosen SummerStage as their platform to showcase new works. In addition to the four commissions, there will be twelve premieres, offering audiences the chance to see the latest works from a number of dance and theater companies.
“Audiences have come to expect the highest-quality, free arts programming from SummerStage and we intend to continue that tradition. We also see the importance of contributing to the arts landscape through supporting artists in their creative endeavors via the funding of these commissioned works,” says City Parks Foundation President, Alison Tocci. “We are delighted that the debut of these exceptional pieces will always be associated with SummerStage.”
Musical highlights from this season include soul legend, BOBBY WOMACK, hip-hop legends BRAND NUBIAN and BIG DADDY KANE, contemporary R&B stars J. HOLIDAY and ERIC BENÉT, new generation rockers DAWES, ALABAMA SHAKES and GARY CLARK JR., reggae stars INNER CIRCLE and MIDNITE, cutting edge comedy troupe THE UPRIGHT CITIZENS BRIGADE, gospel greats HEZEKIAH WALKER and LE’ANDRIA JOHNSON, a global cast of the best Latin rockers, salseros and bachata singers including MALA RODRIGUEZ, KINKY, HECTOR “EL TORITO” ACOSTA, TOBY LOVE, and JOSÉ ALBERTO “EL CANARIO”, downtown performance legend JOEY ARIAS, jazz great ROY HAYNES, and dozens of other top notch artists.

Friday, July 6 and Saturday July 7 in St. Mary’s Park, The Bronx Friday, July 13 and Saturday, July 14 in Crotona Park, The Bronx “A King of Infinite Space” a play by Mando Alvardo directed by Jerry Ruiz adapted from Shakespeare’s Hamlet SummerStage Theater Presented by Time Warner American rock collides with Shakespeare in the SummerStage commissioned, theatrical concert event, A King of Infinite Space. Noted playwright Mando Alvarado‘s modern spin on William Shakespeare’s Hamlet places the plot in the Lower East Side, Manhattan for a more relatable take on the quintessential tale of struggling family dynamics, power, and revenge. Fusing the music and themes from American rock icon Pearl Jam’s ground-breaking album, 10, with a gritty Lower East Side dynamic, this concert event relates Shakespeare’s 17th century literature to 21st century New York City.
