“The Sound of Silence,” “America,” “The Boxer,” “I Am A Rock,” “Mrs. Robinson” and “Bridge Over Troubled Water.” The iconic musical catalogue created by Paul Simon through his partnership with Art Garfunkel comes to life in Acting Up Stage Company’s UnCovered concert.

To get this much talent in one beautiful venue in one night and then use it as a corporate hosting opportunity… there’s not an event in the city that beats it.
