Celebrating the art that holds up a mirror to our turbulent times could not be more important right now. In this, our performance issue, we shine a light on performing artists from a range of disciplines—actors, playwrights, choreographers, musicians, artists, and dancers—who have returned to the stage with work that feels urgent, revelatory, and new. For our cover story, Collier Schorr photographed actor Tessa Thompson, whom I’ve known for many years and watched evolve into a steady, self-assured force. Tessa stars this summer in two big franchises—the latest Marvel blockbuster, Thor: Love and Thunder, and the fourth season of HBO’s Westworld—but as always remains grounded. During the pandemic, she took the opportunity to look at the kind of work she was doing—and Hollywood—through a wider lens, launching her own production…

It’s no wonder many of us channeled pandemic-related stress (and countless lockdown hours) into new pursuits like bread baking, gardening, and ceramics. “We inherently know that art heals,” says Geetika Agrawal, the founder of VAWAA (Vacation With an Artist), a company that provides “mini apprenticeships” with artists across the globe. Here, a set of travel experiences that are designed to teach a new skill and foster creativity. CALLIGRAPHY “When we opened up our workshops again,” says Agrawal, “we had the most bookings we’ve ever had.” Founded in 2015, during a year when Agrawal met and signed up artisans and craftsmakers, VAWAA now offers courses with more than 110 artists in 27 countries. Travelers can study tango with a dancer in Buenos Aires or learn traditional Japanese calligraphy in Kyoto. In…

Born in Venezuela, Dudamel is one of the world’s most prolific maestros. He has performed with Beyoncé and Billie Eilish and conducted the score for Steven Spielberg’s 2021 West Side Story reboot, and he currently serves as the music director of the Simón Bolívar Symphony Orchestra in Caracas, as well as the Los Angeles Philharmonic and the Paris Opera. “What makes me love what I do is to be able to share joy with people,” says Dudamel. On August 2, he will lead the Encuentros Orchestra—made up of youth musicians from 19 countries—in a performance of Dvořák’s Symphony No. 9 for his final appearance in a summer concert series marking the Hollywood Bowl’s 100th anniversary. “It’s amazing to be back,” says Dudamel of the return of live music. “We understand…

COLLIER SCHORR PHOTOGRAPHER: “Tessa Thompson Takes Her Time,” page 64 “Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker’s dance company, Rosas, performing Fase, Four Movements to the Music of Steve Reich while I was onstage photographing it.” VINCENT VAN DE WIJNGAARD PHOTOGRAPHER: “Going Places,” page 76 “In the late ’90s, I attended the North Sea Jazz Festival. One of the performers was saxophonist Michael Brecker. During a performance of ‘Song for Barry,’ a tribute to the great trombonist Barry Rogers, Brecker reached stratospheric heights. I heard harmonic changes I had never heard before. It struck me like lightning.” LAUREN MICHELE JACKSON WRITER: “Tessa Thompson Takes Her Time,” page 64 “Kelela from up close—nothing quite like it.” ISABELLE KOUNTOURE STYLIST: “Going Places,” page 76 “Given that music has always been my first passion, I feel…

“I would not be who I am if I didn’t have 8,000 things going on,” says Joey Wölffer, co-owner of Wölffer Estate Vineyard, the Long Island winery founded by her father in Sagaponack, New York. Wölffer never planned to go into the family business. After graduating from Vanderbilt University, she worked as a jewelry designer and trend forecaster in New York City before launching the Styleliner, a mobile shop she operated out of a refurbished potato-chip truck and stocked with vintage jewelry and pieces by global artisans. But in 2013, five years after her father’s death, Wölffer decided to put down roots in Long Island. “I thought, ‘Am I going to leave my heritage, or am I going to keep it going?’” she says. Wölffer now oversees the winery alongside…

AS MANY OF US have sought out small daily sources of joy to counteract the stresses of the past few years, color therapy has garnered renewed attention. The idea of using color to evoke feelings of optimism, to feel more energetic—or even to quell anxiety—is appealing in its accessibility. “Studies have shown that lavender can have a soothing effect, while a soft daffodil yellow can make the brain feel happy,” says New York psychologist Sanam Hafeez. Light blue has also been demonstrated to have a calming quality, green can help you reset, and red may be invigorating. While color’s influence on mood is temporary, even a quick dopamine hit can help change your mindset, making a swipe of bright makeup not just trendy but therapeutic. EYE CANDY The easiest way…

The world is falling apart. It feels like we’re the Antrobus family in Thornton Wilder’s The Skin of Our Teeth, somehow going about our lives while a shift in a geological epoch or two rages just outside. Coup hearings bookmark a yearslong pandemic. A leaked draft of a SCOTUS opinion forecasts the end of the constitutional right to abortion. An electric-car edgelord who was supposed to save the planet with style and batteries has proved to be more Wizard of Oz than science-fiction messiah. Yet there is reason for hope. So sayeth artists making their way through the existential muck of life. Take Oh God, a Show About Abortion, created by comedian Alison Leiby and presented, for its run at New York’s Cherry Lane Theater, by her friend and colleague…

VINTAGE VIBES It may look like a tanning oil from the ’80s, but Cay Skin Isle Body Oil ($32) won’t leave you crispy. While the new formula recalls the original oily skin bronzers, Cay Skin’s update also offers broad-spectrum SPF 30 protection and leaves skin glistening—but not overly greasy—thanks to light hydrators like squalane and sea moss. HIGH NOTES Off-White, the fashion house founded by the late Virgil Abloh, is venturing into beauty with “Paperwork,” a new line that includes makeup, nail lacquers, and fragrance.

Tessa Thompson cherishes a slow burn. “I know that a lot of my contemporaries don’t agree with me, but I think being underlauded in your time sometimes is not a bad thing,” she tells me. We’re awaiting brunch in New York City at a favorite spot in SoHo, and here the actor, who stars this summer in the highly anticipated latest installments of two major franchises—Thor: Love and Thunder, from Marvel Studios, and HBO’s Westworld, back for a fourth season—is only just ambiently referring to herself. It is a Tuesday in early May and we’re seated outdoors, graced by the kind of weather embraced by only the genuinely citified, with stark patches of shade too chilly for too-confident notions of springtime attire. But the sun feels delicious. Thompson loves New…

When Winona Ryder was a kid, she daydreamed about movies—not starring in them, but watching and filming them. Her parents, who are both writers and editors, moved to a commune on the Northern California coast when she was seven, and though there were no TVs, her mother would put up a sheet on the side of a barn to show old movies. “I was in heaven,” Ryder says. After her family moved a few years later to Petaluma, a city in the San Francisco Bay Area, she would try to view the world through the camera’s lens. “There’s this bridge there. It looks so small now,” Ryder says. “But I used to put the strap of my book bag across my forehead. I’d sort of walk and force myself to…
