“To Kill a Mockingbird” will return as Bay Street’s Literature Live! production in November. Public performances of the play will begin on Friday, Nov. 7, and will continue through the next three weekends on Fridays and Saturdays. In addition, some tickets for weekday performances, reserved for schools, will be offered based on availability.

New Shows at Halsey Mckay

Halsey Mckay has opened two new shows at its East Hampton gallery space. One, “Inversion Spectrum,” is a solo show of works by Corey Escoto, who uses both analog and digital processes in photography to tease the viewer into figuring out which is which, where the origin of each image lies, and how photography has adapted to contain all of the available technology.

Guild Hall will present two new exhibitions, “Mary Ellen Bartley: Leaning Above the Page” and “New Additions to the Guild Hall Museum Permanent Collection, 2010-2014,” from Saturday through Jan. 4. An opening reception will be held Saturday from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m.

Two new exhibitions, “Alan Shields: In Motion” and “Steven and William Ladd: Mary Queen of the Universe,” will open at the Parrish Art Museum in Water Mill on Sunday and remain on view through Jan. 19. The Ladd Brothers’ show will open with a live performance by the artists Sunday morning at 11.

 Maria Bacardi, a Cuban-born actress and singer who lives in East Hampton, will perform a selection of Cuban songs on Saturday at 6 p.m. at GGrippo Art and Design in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. The occasion is the opening of “Alien Bloom,” an installation by Eteri and Gocha Chkadua Studio.

The Montauk Library will present “Moving Pictures: Classical Music in Cartoons,” a free piano concert by Alina Kiryayeva, Sunday at 3:30 p.m. The program is inspired by several cartoons from American animation’s golden age, which featured such characters as Bugs Bunny, Mickey Mouse, and Tom and Jerry as concert artists playing the works of important classical composers.

The Parrish Art Museum’s Salon Series will continue this weekend with two concerts by Andrew Staupe that will include music by both classical and contemporary composers. The performances will take place tomorrow at 6 p.m. and Saturday at 2 p.m. in the Water Mill museum’s Lichtenstein Theater.

Although Lee Krasner spent much of her life in Springs, it would be a mistake to neglect the contribution of Norman Lewis to “From the Margins: Lee Krasner | Norman Lewis, 1945-1952,” now at the Jewish Museum in Manhattan. The exhibition so enmeshes their work that it is difficult to divide one from the other.

Krasner, born in Brooklyn to Russian emigres, moved here in 1945 with her husband, Jackson Pollock, and helped form the colony of artists working here who would define midcentury Modern art.

It was while driving back and forth from Montauk to her job at VJS Studio in East Hampton that Mary Daunt realized what an unusual landscape lies on either side of Montauk Highway and in Montauk generally. “The light is a lot more intense in the early fall. I prefer fall colors — there’s so much contrast between the red and green and the blue and orange.” Montauk’s landscape “is wilder,” she said.

The John Drew Theater Lab will present a free staged reading of Lyle Kessler’s play “Orphans” on Tuesday at 7:30 p.m., directed by Sawyer Avery and Megan Minutillo and featuring Joe Pallister, Christopher Imbrosciano, and Mr. Avery.

New at Harper’s

Harper’s Books in East Hampton will open “Brad Phillips: Law and Order” with a reception Saturday from 6 to 8 p.m. The exhibition will continue through Jan. 5.

When first confronted with the hodgepodge of artist names from the South Fork’s past and present on view at Peter Marcelle Project in Southampton, one cannot be faulted for assuming the exhibition might be a bit of a visual mess.

Those who think they are starting to see Colin Goldberg everywhere are probably right. Work by the recent Pollock-Krasner Foundation grant recipient is currently on view at Glenn Horowitz Bookseller in East Hampton and at the Southampton Cultural Center, and he was part of a group show at the Southampton Arts Center this summer.

The Hamptons International Film Festival announced the winners of its jury and special prizes on Monday. The Golden Starfish Narrative Feature Award went to “Gett: The Trial of Viviane Amsalem,” written and directed by Ronit Elkabetz and Shlomi Elkabetz. The Israeli film focuses on the male-dominated and sometimes decades-long process required under rabbinical law to dissolve a marriage.

The Hampton Theatre Company in Quogue will open its 30th season next Thursday at 7 p.m. with “Harvey,” Mary Chase’s Pulitzer Prize-winning play about a six-foot-tall rabbit visible to only a few people. The production will run through Nov. 9, with Thursday and Friday performances at 7 p.m., Saturday shows at 8, and Sunday matinees at 2:30.

The Southampton Cultural Center’s Center Stage Theatre series will open next Thursday at 7:30 p.m. with “The World Goes ’Round,” a program of the greatest hits of John Kander and Fred Ebb, the songwriting team known for their work on Broadway and in motion pictures.

The Hamptons International Film Festival’s “A Conversation With Patricia Clarkson” on Friday delivered more than advertised. The actress, whose film “Learning to Drive” was one of the festival’s Spotlight Films, provided her Bay Street Theater audience with a riveting, hourlong performance filled with humor, insight, self-revelation, and a bounty of anecdotes and observations culled from almost 30 years as an actress, all elicited with finesse by the film critic Thelma Adams.

The Parrish Art Museum’s Salon Series will feature two performances by William Hobbs, a classical pianist, tomorrow at 6 p.m. and Saturday afternoon at 2.

The concert will feature Night Music Op. 109 for flute, clarinet, and piano by Lowell Liebermann, an American composer who will attend the performance. Claire Temin Bird, flute, and Anna Temin Meisel, clarinet, will perform the work with Mr. Hobbs.

The program will also include piano transcriptions of works by Chopin, Liszt, Stravinsky, and Bach. Tickets are $20, $10 for members.

The John Drew Theater Lab at Guild Hall will present a free staged reading by Patrick Christiano of his monologue “My Lessons From Dogs,” inspired by his 22 years with Norfolk Terriers, Tuesday at 7:30 p.m.

Conceived from improvisations with people he meets while walking his dogs in Manhattan’s West Village, the autobiographical story chronicles the beginning of his theater writing, his return to acting in New York after a stint selling million-dollar houses on the South Fork, and his portrayal of Truman Capote in “Tru.”

Oren Moverman, who wrote and directed “Time Out of Mind,” a Hamptons International Film Festival Spotlight Film, engaged in a wide-ranging conversation about his approach to filmmaking with Joe Neumaier, film critic for The New York Daily News, on Saturday. Rowdy Hall in East Hampton was the setting.

The Telecaster, an iconic electric guitar that has barely changed in design since the Fender Musical Instruments Corporation introduced it in 1951, will be celebrated on Saturday at 8 p.m. at Bay Street Theater when three renowned guitarists will pay tribute to their favored instrument.

Judy Mauer at Lawrence

“Judy Mauer: NYC Dolls,” an exhibition of work by the New York City street photographer, will open at Lawrence Fine Arts in East Hampton Saturday with a reception from 3 to 5 p.m. It will remain on view through Nov. 5.

Ms. Mauer photographs mannequins in store windows, concentrating as much on the reflections in the glass as on the “dolls.” Her complex layered images are created without double exposures or the use of Photoshop. Each image is exactly what she saw through the lens the moment it was shot.

The Hamptons International Film Festival announced the winners of its jury and special prizes on Monday.

Sag Harbor’s Bay Street Theater will be busy this weekend. Tomorrow at 8 p.m., Judy Carmichael and her quartet will perform music from “I Love Being Here With You,” the first all-vocal CD by the virtuoso stride pianist. Ms. Carmichael will sing standards from the Great American Songbook. Tickets are $45 for side seating, $55 for center, while $75 includes admission to an after-party with the artist.

The Shelter Island Friends of Music will present Orion Weiss and Anna Polonsky in a free, four-hands piano concert on Sunday at 3 p.m. at the Shelter Island Presbyterian Church.

Mr. Weiss and Ms. Polonsky, who are married, perform separately and together. She is widely in demand as a soloist and chamber musician and has performed at venues such as the Amsterdam Concertgebouw, Vienna Kon­zerthaus, and Carnegie Hall.

The simple yet elegant presentation of works by Hiroshi Sugimoto at the Tripoli Gallery in Southampton begins at the entrance to the gallery. Like the restrained, masterly crafted boxes he makes for his glass sculptures, the gallery has been turned into discreet packaging for the jewels within its walls.

Like them or hate them, pop-ups have become commonplace on the South Fork. From Whole Foods to Shuko, from Dash to Joe Fresh, shops, restaurants, and even art galleries have been sprouting up every summer since Nobu opened at the Capri motel in Southampton in 2011.

“The App Store” in Sag Harbor will close at the end of business on Sunday after a two-month run at GeekHampton on Bay Street, but it can’t be accused of trying to make a quick buck.

Also on Shelter Island, bluegrass and traditional American music will be on offer as part of the Plant & Sing festival at Sylvester Manor Saturday from noon until 10 p.m.

The day will begin with the planting of garlic and the harvesting of fall crops, after which the music will get into full swing on the waterfront lawn. This year’s performers will include the Wainwright Sisters, the Deadly Gentlemen, Eastbound Freight, Edith & Bennett, the Ed Howe Bluegrass Band, and Jeff Davis & Friends.

“Gabriel” opens with a shot of a winter landscape just before dawn, its stillness suddenly shattered by the roar of a bus speeding across the screen. A young man in a woolen watch cap and winter coat gazes out the window. He tries harmlessly to engage a little girl who is grinning at him from several rows away. She finally joins him, and they are pretending to be smoking Twizzlers when the girl’s mother rushes up the aisle, snatches her daughter, and drags her back to her seat.

The Rising Stars piano series will return to the Southampton Cultural Center’s Levitas Center for the Arts on Saturday evening at 7 with a concert by Robin Giesbrecht.

A 2013 Pianofest artist, Mr. Giesbrecht will perform Ravel’s “Sonatine,” Scriabin’s rarely played Third Sonata, and Liszt’s 1848 transcription of the Overture from Wagner’s “Tannhauser.”
