An evening of humans being humans: How could it not be entertaining? This show enjoys three performances November 14\, 15 @ 7:30 and a Sunday Matinee on November 16 @ 2 PM. \nBUTTCRACKER NEVERLAND arrives through the proverbial chimney for holiday titillations\, in a most ridiculous Bruka theatre tradition with an all original BÜTTCRACKER NEVERLAND! What began as a parody of The Nutcracker has evolved into a regional cult classic\, offering a different underbelly to the original ballet each year it is performed.

We finish the season as we began\, in a seedy nightclub\, as the 1920s draw to a close\, a garish Master of Ceremonies welcomes the audience and assures them they will forget all their troubles at the Cabaret.

SUMMARY:The Producers: A Mel Brook's Musical
DESCRIPTION:How do you create a flop on Broadway? \nIf you’re Mel Brooks\, you start with a scheming con man (Max Bialystock)\, add in a mousy accountant (Leo Bloom)\, then introduce them to a pigeon-loving Nazi and his script for a gloriously offensive musical\, “Springtime for Hitler\,” and finally\, sprinkle in an eager blonde bombshell! It’s a recipe for failure. But in this laugh-out-loud comedy\, unexpected success throws Max and Leo into a downward spiral\, with unexpected consequences. Crazy caricatures and camp spectacle come together to produce a wonderfully tasteless evening of entertainment. The in-your-face humor includes high-kicking stormtroopers\, a flock of pigeons\, hand puppets\, and little old ladies dancing with walkers. It’s sure to be a flop! We mean\, hit! \nBeware: this show is not for the weak of heart\, (or for youth under 16; discretion advised). \nCast List\nMax Bialystock: Ryan Kelly\nLeo Bloom: Ryan Costello\nRoger Debris: Michael Davanzo\nUlla: Zoe McCracken\nFranz Liebkind: Jared Lively\nCarmen Ghia: Aiden Lyramor\nEnsemble: Rachel Anderson\, Noah Boston\, Emzy Burroughs\, Ora Harris\, Denny Hope\, Bryce Hurley\, Glynis Irving\, Noah Jackson\, Angel Kominsky\, Mary Beth Lavender\, Wendy Lyramor\, Kelsy Mato\, Alex Mead\, Jacob Nichols\, Sasha Rodriguez\, Sam Shepherd\, Erin Vashista\, Alyssa von Eberstein\, Trevor Young \nRobert Z Hawkins Amphitheater\nBartley Ranch\, Reno\nAll Shows Start at 7:30 pm\nFriday and Saturday\, August 8th and 9th\nThursday-Sunday\, August 14th-17th\nFriday and Saturday\, August 22nd and 23rd \nPricing\nVIP Reserved: $65.00\nADA Seating : $40.00\nPremium Center: $40.00\nPremium Left: $40.00\nPremium Right: $40.00\nADA Row H right: $30.00\nADA Row H right: $30.00\nGallery – Center: $30.00\nGallery Left: $30.00\nGallery Right: $30.00\nUpper Gallery Center: $25.00\nUpper Gallery Left: $25.00\nUpper Gallery Right: $25.00\nLawn – General Admission : $20.00\nLawn -General Admission : $20.00\nLawn seating – General Admission : $20.00 \nRUNNING TIME\n2.25 hours with 15 minute intermission

SUMMARY:BRÜKALTON A Regency Comedy Proving Once & For All That Big Balls Don’t Matter As Much As You Think They Do.
DESCRIPTION:BRÜKALTON \nA Regency Comedy Proving Once & For All That Big Balls Don’t Matter As Much As You Think They Do. \nWritten & Directed By Mary Bennett \nPlease Note The New Dates Below\nMay 2\, 3\, 7(A)\, 8\, 9\, 10\, 14\, 15\, 16\, 17@ 7:30 PM SUN Matinees: May 4 & May 18* @ 2 PM \nTICKETS: Senior/Student/Military $26 General Tickets $30 All Tickets $35 at the Door \nA = Artist Night $17 All Tickets *Sunday – Talk Back With The Company \nBRUKALTON ONLINE TICKET LINK: https://www.bruka.org/boxoffice \nINDIVIDUAL TICKETS ON SALE NOW \nRecommended for ages 14 & Up due to Adult Themes & Language. \nReno\, NV. THE STORY: In this original comedy with a spice of regency parody we visit the village of Brukalton on the day of the society ball following the gender bent and sometimes lonely\, yet always clever siblings of the one time noble and influential Brukalton family under the reign of the bombastic King Chuck as they navigate their strange existence where the loneliest girl in town only wants one thing\, to be remembered for her artistry instead of being being part of Brukalton society. \nWith a wink toward romance\, comedy and ridiculous and fanciful social norms\, it is set during the early 19th century in an alternative world existing in an alternative era of Regency in which no one knows what will happen next\, excepting for the love in the afternoon and the big ball that will prove to the village once and for all that big balls don’t matter. Recommended for ages 14 and up because of thematic things that could be weird to explain in the car on the way home. Created by Bruka’s Producing Artistic Director Mary Bennett. \nTICKET INFORMATION\nArtist Night Tickets must be purchased in advance to receive a discount of our regularly priced tickets.
