With a book by Julian
Fellowes (creator of
Downton Abbey), 14 new
songs by the legendary
Andrew Lloyd Webber
(The Phantom of the
Opera), School of Rock
opened in December to
rave reviews from critics! This adaptation of
the 2003 movie stars Alex Brightman (Wicked,
Matilda) as Dewey Finn, a wannabe rocker
who takes a job as a substitute teacher at a
prep school to earn a few bucks. Completely
disinterested in academic work, Dewey decides
to create his own curriculum, turning his class
into a guitar-shredding, bass-slapping, mindblowing rock band. Sierra Boggess takes on the
role of Rosalie Mullins, the school principal.
She’s no stranger to Lloyd Webber productions,
having played Christine in The Phantom of the
Opera in both New York and London. But,
it is the kids, with their incredible voices and
musical skills, who will have you on your feet
and shouting Encore! It’s no wonder they are
breaking box office records with 101% capacity
at the Winter Garden Theater. This is one class
you don’t want miss!
At the age of 33,
Misty
Copeland
has emerged as
one of the most
influential
and
groundbreaking
dancers of her
generation.
In June 2015,
she was promoted
to principal dancer,
making her the first
African American
woman to hold
this position in the
American
Ballet
Theater’s 75-year
history. We will see her perform the lead role in
Kenneth MacMillan’s masterful interpretation
of Shakespeare’s enduring romantic tragedy,
Romeo and Juliet. Against a sumptuous setting
in Renaissance Italy, MacMillan weaves a
dance tapestry rich in character nuance and
sensuality, and Sergei Prokofiev’s stirring music
underscores the lyric beauty and passion of this
beloved ballet’s star-crossed lovers. MacMillan’s
Romeo and Juliet is an actress’s ballet; its weight
falls on Juliet’s shoulders. It is in many ways
her story and with Misty dancing the lead, we
know we are in for a memorable show. What a
perfect way to spend a summer evening!
NOTE: Full Diversions breakfast provided en
route. On return, full dinner and open bar.

world! The fourth day of action is always
full of upsets and surprises, sure to thrill even
the most avid fan. Last year, our fans were
lucky enough to see history made on Court
17 with the longest women’s match since the
introduction of the tie-breaker (3 hours and 23
minutes!) and Andy Murray’s fantastic come
from behind win from two sets down. Don’t
wait to get what The New York Times calls the
“Toughest Sports Tickets in Town.” Enjoy a
full day of competition on all 22 courts from
11:00 am to 6:30 pm.
September is spectacular at the New York
Botanical Gardens and this September promises
to leave even more of an impression as we
celebrate the 125th anniversary of the Gardens
with a visit to the exquisite exhibit Impressionism:
American Gardens on Canvas.
From the moment you enter the Art
Gallery, you will be surrounded by works from
leading artists of the American Impressionist
movement, including John Singer Sargent,
William Merritt Chase and Frederick Childe
Hassam, whose masterpiece Horticultural
Building, World Columbian Exposition, Chicago
opens the show. A private guided tour will
include a look at 25 paintings and sculptures,
as well as the vintage books, including An Island
Garden by poet Celia Thaxter. This treasure gives
a detailed account of her garden on Appledore
Island, Maine, and was illustrated with lavish
watercolors by Hassam
Our tour continues in the Conservatory,
where the horticultural exhibition is inspired
by An Island Garden as well as several of the
paintings on display in the gallery. Vibrant
plantings and architectural elements will give
visitors the experience of entering living works
of art. The show introduces us to trends in
American garden design in the late 19th and
early 20th Centuries as well as to the plants
important to both gardeners and artists.
A delicious private buffet lunch awaits us at
Stone Mill, a Natural Historic Landmark dating
to 1840, after which we board our private tram
for a narrated tour of the hundreds of acres of
exquisite gardens. The highlight of the tram tour
will be the magnificent Peggy Rockefeller Rose
Garden, considered to be one of the best in the
world with over 650 varieties of roses.
We will cap this extraordinary day with
a visit to the Shop in the Garden filled with
one-of-a-kind gifts, apparel, jewelry, home
accessories, garden tools and, of course, plants.
What a gorgeous way to spend a fall day!
NOTE: A bountiful breakfast will be
provided en route. On return, enjoy
Happy Hour (open bar, wine, beer and

Zabars dinner of your choice and a movie.

Roland Park Country School
An Education Above at Roland
Park Country School sets us
apart. While most schools seek
to prepare their students for the
next academic step we strive to
prepare our students for life —
a life full of wonder, joy and
complexity. We empower our
students with the integrity, will
and character they need to live a
purposeful life. To achieve this,
we build a foundation of strong
academics. Then we add layers
of experiences and opportunities
carefully designed to nurture our
students’ curiosity, creativity,
confidence, compassion and leadership delivered by an
award-winning, experienced and much loved faculty.
This occurs within the context of a genuinely supportive
community where every student has multiple friends,
mentors and others looking out for her. We are proud of
our strength as an academic institution to stand at the
forefront of all girls’ education as we create tomorrow’s
world leaders. Roland Park Country School is a college
preparatory school for girls in Kindergarten through
Grade 12 with a Preschool for girls and boys located in
northern Baltimore City.
