:: UrineTown! ::

It’s a Privilege! -- The Haymarket Theatre proudly presents, in it's Nebraska premiere, “UrineTown!--The Musical!, winner of 3 Tony Awards in 2002 for Best Director, Best Original Score and Best Book of a Musical, the 2002 Outer Critics Circle Award of Outstanding Broadway Musical and Broadway.com Audience Award for favorite New Broadway Musical. A fresh, irreverent, humorous and exciting parody of American musical theatre, this is all the classics rolled into one: boy meets girl, rich versus poor, the little individuals’ struggle against large monopolizing corporations. It is a time of severe drought, water resources are short...so much so, no one is allowed to have private toilets. The only facilities available are government run amenities, where it is the law to pay admission for one of humanity's most basic needs. And the rich go to Rio while the poor cross their legs in line...until – the Revolution!

:: Royal Winnipeg Ballet — The Magic Flute ::

Royal Winnipeg Ballet — The Magic Flute
Canada's premier ballet company toes the line between traditional ballet and a healthy disdain for convention. Featuring a seductively modern style and the company's signature artistic excellence, choreographer Mark Godden and his troupe depict the glorious romance, enchantment, and fantasy of Mozart's final operatic triumph, The Magic Flute. For more hit: www.rwb.org

"The Royal Winnipeg Ballet's bold new adaptation of Mozart’s final opera is witty, imaginative, provocative,
and puzzling — and certainly never dull." – Michael Crabb, The National Post, Ontario
