MadArt presents Aperture, a sculptural installation by New York-based artist Ian McMahon. Upon entering the space, visitors encounter an assemblage of 15-foot-tall, billowing, pillow-like structures that directly respond to the studio’s architecture by paralleling the mezzanine and expanding from its center aisle. The work is comprised of over 5,000 pounds of cast plaster and corralled by large wooden beams. Unlike any of McMahon’s previous works, Aperture incorporates an interior viewing corridor that provides visitors a unique look into the complex engineering involved in the fabrication process. In giving viewers a perspective that visually contradicts the work’s malleable exterior, McMahon aims to disintegrate material assumptions and disrupt the familiarity of spatial memory.

Frozen is a musical with music and lyrics by Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez, and book by Jennifer Lee, based on the 2013 film of the same name. The story centers on the relationship between two sisters who are princesses, Elsa and Anna. Elsa has magical powers to freeze objects and people, which she does not know how to control. After inheriting the throne, Elsa flees, inadvertently causes the kingdom to become frozen in an eternal winter, and nearly kills her sister. She must sacrifice and show true love to save the day.

Produced by Disney Theatrical Productions, the musical had a tryout at the Buell Theatre in Denver, Colorado in August 2017 and premiered on Broadway in March 2018 at the St. James Theatre to mixed reviews. A national tour is set to begin on November 10, 2019 at Proctor's Theatre in Schenectady, New York.
