Broadway's Andréa Burns leads the show, performing Baez's originals, traditional folk, and covers like \"Diamonds and Rust,\" \"House of the Rising Sun,\" and \"We Shall Overcome.\" It was written by Karen Zacarías, directed by Peter Flynn, with Steve Marzullo as music director, and features Steph Amoroso, Cal Mitchell, and special guest Terrence Mann. Baez gave her very first performance on this stage in 1960, and the show introduces the songwriting of an unknown Bob Dylan to the mainstream among her many influences.", "url": "https://noky.io/en/new-york/events/lyrics-lyricists-diamonds-and-rust-the-artistry-and-activism-134679/", "official_url": "", "image": "https://noky.io/images/ccf8c04745f8d239d94640f02b2edd981ae31dbcec1cab3117e0307992b600ad-2000.webp", "dates": [{"start": "2026-11-07T00:00:00-05:00", "end": "2026-11-09T00:00:00-05:00", "place": "Geffen Stage at Kaufmann Concert Hall", "address": "", "tickets": ""}], "similar": [{"title": "Concert for Peace & Justice", "start": "2026-11-14T15:00:00-05:00", "end": null, "place": "LaGuardia Performing Arts Center", "address": "Van Dam St 45-50", "price": "FREE w/ RSVP", "price_from": "0.00", "price_to": "0.00", "category": "concerts", "tags": ["music/classical/choral", "dance"], "description": "Concert for Peace & Justice is an afternoon of music and dance devoted to solidarity, dignity, and hope.
