Million Dollar Quartet – Broadway San Jose
On December 4, 1956, one man brought Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis, Carl Perkins, and Elvis Presley together for the first and only time. His name is Sam Phillips. The place was Sun Records. That night they made rock ‘n’ roll history.
Million Dollar Quartet relives this historical moment, giving the audience a chance to witness what happened on that infamous day. Many of us have imagined what it would be like to attend a concert and see one of these legends live, let alone all four in one place at one time. The Tony Award-winning musical tells the story of the day that by some sheer act of fate, Cash, Perkins, Lewis, and Presley gathered together with Sam Phillips, the man responsible for discovering and launching each of their careers. Although we will never have the opportunity of se [...] Continue reading →

Intermezzo at Quattro
There’s a new addition at Four Seasons East Palo Alto. The aptly named, “Intermezzo” now occupies the space between the bar scene and full-on dinning experience at Quattro (the Four Seasons restaurant). Last Friday, MODE had the chance to celebrate the grand opening.
Italian for “in between,” Intermezzo serves up a wildly diverse selection of small plates and appetizers. Diners have the choice of eating Famiglia (all at once), Festivo (as its ready) and Formale (course by course). A lot of the plates are designed to be shared—with this in mind there is a huge portion of the menu that can be prepared gluten free upon request. All menu items were created by Executive Chef Marco Fossati, Chef de Cuisine Edward Higgins and Pastry Chef Eric Keppler.
I started off with a the made-f [...] Continue reading →
West Side Story- Broadway San Jose
One of Broadway’s most well-known and influential musicals, West Side Story is a loose modern twist on the classic Romeo and Juliet story. Taking place in the streets of New York City, the story highlights the racial struggle existing between two opposing gangs in the 1950s. Based on a book by Arthur Laurents, West Side Story features music by Leonard Bernstein, lyrics by Stephen Sondheim, and conception and choreography by Jerome Robbins. On the Broadway stage since 1957, the musical has been produced over and over again. Last night, the team of West Side Story celebrated their 500th performance of their current national tour.
The theater was packed for opening night of West Side Story at the Center for Performing Arts in Downtown San Jose. Ticket holders took their seats and waited f [...] Continue reading →
CATS at Broadway San Jose
On Tuesday evening, Broadway San Jose continued its season with CATS, one of Broadway’s longest running musicals. As of May 2011, CATS celebrated its 30th anniversary, make it the longest continuously touring Broadway musical in history. CATS is musical composed by Andrew Lloyd Webber, and based on Old Possum’s Book of Practical Cats by T. S. Eliot. I had yet to see a live performance of CATS, and had been waiting to see the musical at the San Jose Center for Performing Arts. Opening night was finally here and the theatre was packed with fans (some who had dressed-up in costume for the occasion) anticipating a wonderful evening. We took our seats and waited for the curtain to go up for the award winning musical.
CATS is the musical tale of a band of Jellicle Cats that gather [...] Continue reading →
