Mark Twain-inspired Sunday Brunch with Bill Barclay

Join Festival Artistic Directors Melinda Lee Masur and Ken-David Masur as they sit down with Bill Barclay — director, writer, and producer of Concert Theater Works — for an intimate Sunday Brunch conversation at the stylish CW Bistro at Pier 57 in Chelsea. Over a curated, Mark Twain-inspired, American menu, the three collaborators offer guests a behind-the-scenes look at the making of Copland & Twain and the creative vision driving the 2026 Festival. It is a rare opportunity to hear directly from the artists shaping the week's programming in one of New York's most vibrant waterfront settings.
