MATRIX:MIDLAND Festival 2014 - AT A GLANCE:


-- The Capitol Steps - Taking a stab at anyone within reach of their verbal
swords, these Washington insiders present sketches and parody songs that
will win everyone's vote of approval. No matter who or what is in the
headlines, you can bet the Capitol Steps will tackle both sides of the
political spectrum, and all things that are equally foolish! (May 31)
-- David Brooks: "Civic Discourse in America" - The New York Times writer
and NPR analyst brings the audience face to face with the spirit of our
times with humor, insight and quiet passion as he challenges us to look
at the role of civic discourse - and what questions we should be asking
ourselves about the direction of our country. (June 3)
-- ChefSteps - Learn a totally new approach to the art and science of
cooking from these "Modernist Cuisine" alumni. Whether you are a home
cook, a professional chef or just love watching cooks work, they have
something for you to discover. (June 5)
-- Huey Lewis and the News - They've sold over 300 million records
worldwide, with hits like "The Heart of Rock and Roll," "The Power of
Love" and "It's Hip to Be Square." Now you can rock with them live!
(June 12)
-- Tiempo Libre - Get up and dance under the stars to the signature sound
of this GRAMMY®-nominated, Cuban jazz band sensation: a high-octane and
infectious fusion of traditional Latin salsa and Afro-Cuban rhythms with
jazz, rock, funk, and classical music influences. (June 19)
-- Brian Regan - Critics and peers agree Brian Regan has distinguished
himself as one of the premier family-friendly comedians in the country.
The perfect balance of sophisticated writing and physicality, Brian
fills theaters nationwide with fervent fans that span generations. (June
