The St. Augstine Amphitheatre and Limelight Theatre have joned forces to launch "Black Box Sessions" with Ben Sollee on October 21, 2025. Set inside the Matuza Black Box Theatre, the new series brings nationally recognized musicians into an intimate, 100-seat cabaret-style space. A longstanding hub for live theatre and arts education in St. Augustine, Limelight Theatre serves more than 20,000 patrons annually and has been recognized as Northeast Florida’s Best Theatre by Broadway World for two consecutive years.

About Ben Sollee: Blurring the boundaries between folk, classical, and soulful Americana, Kentucky based Ben Sollee has captivated audiences for nearly two decades with his signature cello work and introspective songwriting. His latest release, Long Haul (2024), threads together chapters of his artistic journey, drawing on influences from the American and global South. Beyond the stage, Sollee scores for film—LAND (dir. Robin Wright) and Maggie Morre(s) (starring Tina Fey and Jon Hamm)—and for podcasts such as the Peabody-nominated Unreformed.
