The Palace Theatre, a grand cultural and entertainment facility in the heart of Albany , New York , first opened its doors in October 1931. Built during the Depression, the Palace was the largest theatre in a city already noted for a number of other opulent movie houses. Today, the Palace Theatre remains the sole survivor of this period of entertainment and continues to make history with a widely diverse offering of popular acts and cultural events. More

Theresa Caputo: Long Island Medium

Theresa Caputo is a typical Long Island wife and mom, except for one distinct difference... she communicates with the dead.  It's a gift she cannot "turn off" prompting her to give spontaneous readings to her car mechanic or cashier at the local bagel shop. Theresa will share her story, answer audience questions, and conduct readings with the audience Live on stage at the Palace Theatre.

The hit TLC show Long Island Medium premiered in September 2011 to rave reviews and a loyal following. In late March, TLC launched a new season of Long Island Medium in prime time. The show follows Theresa's life as a psychic medium and the unique challenges it creates for her husband of 22 years, Larry, and two children, aged 17 and 21.

John Prine w/ special guest Lucinda Williams

With his trademark guitar finger-picking and unmistakable songwriting voice, John Prine continues to mesmerize diverse audiences with his humble poetry, describing often-overlooked crannies of everyday life. With immeasurable accolades, including two Grammys and the distinction of being one of the few songwriters honored by the Library of Congress and US Poet Laureate, Prine is more than a musician...he is an American treasure.

It's not all that hard to find an artist who's capable of offering a guided tour of life's dark clouds - nor is it rare to come into contact with one who can hone in on the silver lining. But the ability to do both with equal grace, well, that's an altogether rarer gift - and it's one that Lucinda Williams has displayed with remarkable élan throughout her career.
