SUMMARY:BRÜKA THEATRE 33rd ANNIVERSARY SEASON WILD CARD THE LARK
DESCRIPTION:BRÜKA THEATRE 33rd ANNIVERSARY SEASON WILD CARD\nTHE LARK \nFROM THE BATTLEFIELD TO THE FLAMES; RECLAIMING JOAN OF ARC\nMay 15\, 16\, 20(A)\, 21\, 22\, 23\, 27(OC)\, 28\, 29\, 30 @ 7:30 PM SUN Matinees: May 17\, 31* @ 2 PM \nTICKET PRICES \nSenior/Student/Military $26 General Tickets $30 \nAll Tickets $35 at the Door\nA = Artist Night $17 All Tickets\nOC = Our Center Night $22 All Tickets ($5 to Our Center) \n*Followed by a talk-back with the company \nINDIVIDUAL TICKETS ON SALE ON: April 27\, 2026\nTHE LARK ONLINE TICKET LINK: https://brukatheatre.simpletix.com/ \nReno\, NV – Coming to Bruka Theatre in May of 2026\, a revolutionary play that takes us from the battlefield to the flames with The Lark written by French dramatist Jean Anouilh\, adapted by Lillian Hellman. This 1952 dramatization of the life and trial of Joan of Arc opens at Brüka on May 15 and plays through May 31\, 2026. Directed by Holly Natwora\, a local theatre artist whose dense and impressive resume includes such Brüka shows as Dangerous Liaisons\, Waiting For Godot\, and The Diary Of Anne Frank. \nThe Lark is presented by special arrangement with Broadway Licensing\, LLC\, servicing the Dramatists Play Service collection. \nABOUT THE PLAY\nJohn Chapman\, writing in the New York Daily News said of The Lark: “It is always the story of a simple girl who became an inspired warrior and then was tried by the church—but there have been several ways of telling it. Anouilh’s way\, and Miss Hellman’s\, is to try to tell the story from two viewpoints. One of them is how we look at the tale now as a piece of history\, with our knowledge of how the girl’s blundering captors unwittingly created a martyr who became forever a symbol of courage and faith. The other viewpoint has been to try to imagine what it must have been like to be Joan herself. Both approaches have been splendidly realized by the technique of divorcing the drama from the confinements of time\, sequence and space. With this freedom\, the story of Joan of Arc can move backward or forward without an interruption\, without a jar. And as she tells her listeners of what she heard and what she did\, her story comes alive.” \nTICKET INFORMATION\nArtist Night Tickets must be purchased in advance to receive a discount on our regularly priced tickets. Opening Night ticket holders are invited to a post-show reception and an opportunity to meet the artists. Our Center Night tickets include a $5 donation to Our Center.

She has acted in more than seventy plays\, most notably at La MaMa E.T.C.\, SoHo Rep.\, The Neighborhood Playhouse and two summers at Joseph Papp’s New York Shakespeare Festival\, as well as touring The Caucasian Chalk Circle in Berlin\, Germany and playing Lady Macbeth in the first ever New York Fringe Festival. Television and film credits include Law and Order and Law and Order:Criminal Intent. After moving to Reno in 2005\, Holly has performed or directed at Brüka Theatre\, Reno Little Theater\, Good Luck Macbeth\, and TheatreWorks of Northern Nevada. Holly was nominated for a Best Actress Award of Northern Nevada by the Reno News and Review and won A Best Actress Award for her portrayal of Nora in Ibsen’s A Doll’s House at Reno Little Theatre. Holly’s critically acclaimed rendition of The Diary of Anne Frank was invited to be performed at the Nevada Governor’s Advisory Council on the Holocaust in Education. Currently she teaches theater at Truckee Meadows Community College and occasionally at The Sierra School of the Performing Arts. \nABOUT THE AUTHORS \nJean Anouilh was a French dramatist and screenwriter whose career spanned five decades. Though his work ranged from high drama to absurdist farce\, Anouilh is best known for his 1944 production of Sophocles’ Antigone\, which\, though performed without objection by censors\, was nevertheless seen as an attack on Marshal Pétain’s Vichy government. His plays are less experimental than those of his contemporaries\, having clearly organized plot and eloquent dialogue. One of France’s most prolific writers after World War II\, much of Anouilh’s work deals with themes of maintaining integrity in a world of moral compromise. \nLillian Hellman was an American playwright\, prose writer\, memoirist\, and screenwriter known for her success on Broadway as well as her communist views and political activism. She was blacklisted after her appearance before the House Committee on Un-American Activities at the height of the anti-communist campaigns of 1947–1952. Although she continued to work on Broadway in the 1950s\, her blacklisting by the U.S. film industry redefined her personal and professional life. \nIn November 1947\, after the Hollywood Ten defied the committee\, Hellman wrote an editorial titled “The Judas Goats”. It said in part: \nIt was a week of turning the head in shame; of the horror of seeing politicians make the honorable institution of Congress into a honky tonk show; of listening to craven men lie and tattle\, pushing each other in their efforts to lick the boots of their vilifiers; publicly trying to wreck the lives\, not of strangers\, mind you\, but of men with whom they have worked and eaten and played\, and made millions. Has it anything to do with Communism? Of course not. There has never been a single line or word of Communism in any American picture at any time. There has never or seldom been ideas of any kind. Naturally\, men scared to make pictures about the American Negro\, men who only in the last year have allowed the word Jew to be spoken in a picture\, men who took more than ten years to make an anti-Fascist picture\, those are frightened men and you pick frightened men to frighten first. Judas goats; they’ll lead the others\, maybe\, to the slaughter for you.They frighten mighty easy\, and they talk mighty bad. … I suggest the rest of us don’t frighten so easy. It’s still not un-American to fight the enemies of one’s country. Let’s fight.

SUMMARY:Artist In Action
DESCRIPTION:Stop by Darkshot Coffee\, grab a hot or cold beverage\, check out local art provided by the Artist Co-op Gallery of Reno\, and meet the Artist In Action:\n\nGalina Milton\n\nWednesday\, May 20th\, 2026\, from 9 am-12 pm\n\nLocated at:Darkshot CoffeeIn the lobby\, 300 E. 2nd St.\, #101Reno\, NV 89501\n\nAbout The Artist:I have dedicated the last 25 years of my life to painting\, and for the past seventeen years\, I’ve had the privilege of sharing my passion through teaching\, both privately and in college settings. There’s something profoundly inspiring about a blank canvas—it holds the promise of a world waiting to be created\, and I strive to instill this belief in my students as well.\nBorn in Lugansk\, Ukraine\, during the challenging times of the Soviet Union\, my path into the arts was not conventional. Lacking formal art education\, I found solace and richness in Russian Art History during my studies at the University of Ukraine. Growing up in an artistic family\, with my grandfather as a sound sculptor\, it wasn’t until later in life that I truly discovered my passion for art.\nIn the fall of 2004\, I took a significant step in my journey by enrolling in the Academy of Art University in San Francisco to pursue my Master’s degree. A transformative summer in 2006 at the esteemed Repin Academy in Saint Petersburg\, Russia was a turning point for me\, where I had the honor of studying under the guidance of Ivan Vituk and Konstantin Grachev. Being surrounded by the masterpieces within the Academy’s Museum and learning from talented Russian teachers broadened my understanding and appreciation of art in ways I never anticipated. I graduated with my Master’s in Fine Art from the Academy of Art in San Francisco\, focusing on capturing the essence of people\, mostly through studies from life.\nToday\, my artistic style blends impressionism and realism\, and I recognize that it may continue to evolve. Nevertheless\, I hold steadfast to the fundamental principles of painting—drawing\, composition\, values\, temperature\, light in color\, and edges—as they will always be my guiding stars. My website beautifully chronicles this heartfelt journey\, showcasing the images that reflect my growth and experiences.www.galinamilton.com.

SUMMARY:Artist In Action
DESCRIPTION:Stop by Darkshot Coffee\, grab a hot or cold beverage\, check out local art provided by the Artist Co-op Gallery of Reno\, and meet the Artist In Action:\n\nTerrye Kocher\n\nTuesday\, June 23rd\, 2026\, from 9 am-12 pm\n\nLocated at:Darkshot CoffeeIn the lobby\, 300 E. 2nd St.\, #101Reno\, NV 89501\n\nAbout The Artist:After a career in high-tech\, I now have the luxury to focus on my creative side. I like to explore different mediums and techniques\, but I find making “dots” images\, e-parts collages\, quilt collages\, and jewelry the most rewarding.\nBefore retiring\, I spent 3 months working in Canberra\, the Australian capital. Visiting museums and galleries\, I was impressed by the works done by the Australian Aboriginals. After returning to Nevada\, I decided to experiment with the techniques used by these artists. Hence\, my “dots” artwork. For my subject matter\, I like to look to Nevada images for inspiration.For years\, I have been deconstructing electronic devices: computers\, TVs\, printers – if a device has a circuit board\, I will take it apart. I then use the parts from these devices to construct e-parts collages.\nFor as long as I can remember\, I have been fascinated by jigsaw puzzles. I guess I have a need to turn the chaos of all the small pieces into the cohesive whole of the finished puzzle. So\, too\, I have a fascination with quilts\, mosaics\, and stained glass. They share the characteristic of many individual pieces combined to create a work of art. By doing quilt collages\, I am able to concentrate on the design aspects of creating a quilt\, focusing on the colors and the patterns\, without the tedium of actually cutting\, sewing\, and quilting. I construct my quilt collages primarily from paper\, from many sources\, such as advertising flyers\, calendars\, cards\, catalogs\, and magazines. Sometimes I design “fabric” on my computer\, which I then print on paper. And\, occasionally\, I will take a marker or colored pencil in hand to augment a piece.

Brüka’s 33rd season concludes with the 1998 revival of CABARET (Kander\, Ebb\, Materoff). Set as the glittering\, dark 1920s give way to the emerging Third Reich\, the Master of Ceremonies welcomes all to forget their troubles. His bawdy songs provide wry commentary as Cabaret explores the heady\, dangerous life of Berlin. Directed by Mary Bennett and Choreographed by Alexander Biber. Music Direction by Bill Quinby and Vocal Direction by Natalie Laster Jones. Cabaret runs from June 26 to July 18\, 2026. \nMORE ABOUT THE SHOW: The shadow of history stretches across time. Twenty-five years ago\, Bruka brought Cabaret to life in the year 2000\, confronting the promise and the peril of a new era. Now\, for the 2025/2026 season\,Bruka plunges into the heart of 1929/1930’s Berlin\, offering a raw\, authentic look at a dangerous world reflected in the decadence and mystique of Cabaret. \nThis year’s theme\, “WILD CARD\,” promises an unpredictable\, game-changing season that continues to explore live theatre in the raw\, authentic\, cutting-edge style that Brüka has become known for. With our 33rd season\, we truly “walk on the wild side.” In addition\, our Studio 44 space will host workshops\, community opportunities\, house our theatrical books store\, and serve as a conversational box office hub. \nWe are proud to be partnering with Our Center for our entire 33rd season.
