Each week, we're sharing cultural experiences you can access from home during the pandemic, such as online concerts, theater and art. This week we suggest:
- Alan Bennett's The Madness of George III at London's National Theatre (available June 11 - 18).
- Marine biologist Alasdair Harris's Ted Talk, How a handful of villages sparked a marine conservation revolution.
- Virtual Choral Evensong with
The Rodolfus Foundation. If you want just a taste, drop in between minute 29.30 and 33.50.
- An exhibition of Japanese-American Photographs, 1920-1940 at the J. Paul Getty Museum.
- Nina Simone singing Mississippi Goddam written in response to the murder of Medgar Evers (this recording was made in France in 1965, the version on her album Nina Simone in Concert was recorded at Carnegie Hall in 1964).
