SUMMARY:BRÜKA THEATRE 32nd SEASON:TRANSCENDENCE
DESCRIPTION:BRÜKA THEATRE 32nd SEASON:TRANSCENDENCE \nBrüka Theatre announces its 32nd Season of live theatre: Transcendence. Season tickets are officially on sale September 1\, 2024 at: http://www.bruka.org. This early opportunity to purchase Brüka Season Tickets helps fund the opening of the Brüka season while giving our Season Ticket holders lots of perks\, savings and includes advanced ticket reservations before tickets go on sale to the general public\, an invitation to our annual Martini Party\, tickets to our Theatre For Children Production and for our BIGGEST little Theatre Festival – in January\, 2025. In addition\, for our Patron Gold Season Ticket Holders – special seating of their choice and a souvenir Bruka cozy cup. Each production enjoys an opening night reception and a talkback on the final matinee of each show. \nBruka’s 31st season opens with THE BABY “The Bizarre 70’s Cult Horror/Comedy\, Live On Stage!” The Baby is written by Dan Spurgeon based on the screenplay of The Baby by Abe Polsky and directed by Michael Grimm. The Baby was originally produced by The Visceral Company and had its world premiere on June 12\, 2013 as part of the Hollywood Fringe Festival. “A satiric production of the 1973 film\, a demented\, often campy\, psychological thriller\, with elements of macabre horror and an extreme twist ending.” – Bonnie Priever\, Tolucan Times. Andrew Moore from Mad Theatrics calls it “A loving farce of an obscure and obscene film”. The Baby opens Brüka’s 31st season on Friday\, October 4\, 2023 followed by an opening night reception. Individual tickets for The Baby go on sale on September 5\, 2024. EXPLICIT THEATRE WARNING. \nNovember brings a weekend performance of the original short plays: CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THE HUMAN KIND. Humans have never been so human as in this collection of five comedic and/or bittersweet short plays by local playwright Bob Gabrielli. A door-to-door encounter goes off the rails in one neighborhood exchange. Sparks fly for two lonely hearts at the local blood bank while a wife and husband engage in an annual review of their marriage. Meanwhile\, an aging tennis player forges an unexpected connection with a ball girl while it’s a Darwinian survival of the fittest for the volunteers at a local food bank. An evening of humans being humans: How could it not be entertaining? This show enjoys three performances November 8\, 9 @ 7:30 and a Sunday Matinee on November 10 @ 2 PM. \nTHE BUTTCRACKER is back at Brüka as we celebrate the holidays with this original parody of the classic Nutcracker and twist it into a cross between Little Miss Sunshine and Dance Moms. Audiences vote for the winner in the collectable LITTLE MISS BUTTCRACKER playing Friday\, December 6 through December 22\, 2024. Not for ballet purists or those with tight slippers. Recommended: 12 years and up. \nJanuary\, 2024 brings the 13th BIGGEST little THEATRE & NEW WORKS FESTIVAL. The local centric festival features a variety of local playwrights and theatre artists performing and/or reading a diversity of work over a four day period. Submissions for shows will open on September 10\, 2024. The festival plays January 17 – 20\, 2024 \nThe new year brings back EVERY BRILLIANT THING written by Duncan Macmillan with Jonny Donahoe. After last year’s sold out performances and cancellation due to weather\, the show opens on January 31st in sub-Brüka for just 6 performances. Holly Natwora directs Mary Bennett as they revisit this interactive performance about getting to the other side of grief with a list that takes on a life of its own. A beautiful and revelatory play about depression and the lengths we will go to for those we love. “[A] heart-wrenching\, hilarious play…One of the funniest plays you’ll ever see about depression—and possibly one of the funniest plays you’ll ever see\, full stop…There is something tough being confronted here—the guilt of not being able to make those we love happy—and it is explored with unflinching honesty.” —The Guardian (UK) \nIn March of 2025\, Rodney Hurst\, director of holiday favorite Weber Family Christmas and who graced the Brüka stage in Kinky Boots\, ThreePenny Opera and more now direct’s this dark comedy that was one of three finalists for the 2006 Pulitzer Prize for Drama; MISS WITHERSPOON written by the remarkable Christopher Durang. Durang\, known for his works of outrageous and often absurd comedy\, passed away in April of 2024. In the story of Miss Witherspoon\, when life becomes just too frightful to endure\, Veronica opts out for eternal peace. Instead\, she finds herself in the Bardo (Tibetan Buddhist netherworld) with an overly cheery spirit guide who forces her to reincarnate in a dizzying array of roles\, from trailer-park infant to fractious golden retriever. “Miss Witherspoon is a quirky black comedy about reincarnation\, altering the course of world events…and Rex Harrison.” – Playbill. Miss Witherspoon plays March 7 – 23\, 2024. \nStacey Spain\, exceptional local theatre artist and Executive Director of Our Center is Brüka Theatre’s Playwright In Residence for the 2024/25 season. Stacey’s work Crazy F*&%ing Kincaids will be workshopped and presented to audiences on April 4\, 5 at 7:30 PM and April 6 for a 2 PM matinee. Originally produced at Brüka’s Biggest Little Theater Festival in 2020 this new edition is a full length play with two additional characters. A dreamscape that explores the cost of betrayal and the power of love. A brother and sister discovering secrets and learning to trust after a death in the family. Sometimes truth is not the kindest option. Language and themes make this an ADULT PERFORMANCE. \nIn April and May of 2025\, Brüka Theatre presents – BRÜKALTON – A REGENCY ERA PARODY that stumbles into greatness one mistake at a time. This original play takes on the world’s of Jane Austen and Bridgerton in a spoof on Regency Classicism. Dive deep into the struggles of meaningful\, nonsexual encounters that simmer with tension\, witty\, subtle dialogue and romantic nonsense. Brükalton – A Regency Era Parody plays April 25 through May 17\, 2025. \nBrüka’s 32nd season concludes with RIDE THE CYCLONE. This hilarious and outlandish musical glimpses the lives of six teenagers from a Canadian chamber choir that are cut short in a freak accident aboard a roller coaster. When they awake in limbo\, a mechanical fortune teller invites each to tell a story to win a prize like no other — the chance to return to life. RIDE THE CYCLONE is an outrageous musical about life & limbo directed by Rose Sambrano with Mary Bennett. Opening June 27 and plays through July 19\, 2025. \nBrüka’s Theatre For Children returns this season with THE PARAMOUNT & SOMETIMES WILDY RIDICULOUS HISTORY OF NEVADA – LEGENDS a whimsical\, wild & abridged journey through the history of Nevada. Our original Brüka Theatre For Children productions integrate theatre\, history\, science and social studies and tour throughout Nevada as part of The Pioneer Youth Program Roster. \nAlso for the youth\, Brüka holds their YOUTH THEATRE WORKSHOP INTENSIVE from JULY 22 through AUGUST 3\, 2024 for ages 11 – 16 with intern opportunities available. \nThis year’s theme “TRANSCENDENCE”- takes our audiences beyond ordinary limitations and moves our stage stories beyond physical needs and realities. The shows this season use the magic of theatre to open the mind and heart to fantastical possibilities\, that take the mind past everyday stresses while appreciating the journeys and stories of others in which we sometimes see ourselves. With our 32nd season\, we hope to inspire your imagination beyond life’s struggles with humor\, empathy\, limbo and appreciating life everyday. With the addition of our new space at Brüka’s Studio 44\, we will also offer new workshops\, community opportunities\, ways to box office and enjoy our theatrical books store and a conversation. \nIf you are associated with a local charity that you believe in and would fit with our season line-up\, please reach out to marybruka@gmail.com and we will do our best to access and serve the needs while we enhance the experiences of the organizations. \nTICKET INFORMATION\nArtist Night Tickets must be purchased in advance to receive a discount of our regularly priced tickets.

SUMMARY:“Slow Draw” Jessica Hayworth Kelly Chorpening Otis Poisson Curated By: Chris Lanier (City Artist)
DESCRIPTION:The Metro Gallery at Reno City Hall is hosting “Slow Draw” a group exhibition with work by Jessica Hayworth\, Kelly Chorpening\, and Otis Poisson. Curated by 2024 Reno City Artist Chris Lanier\, the show runs from September 30 – November 22\, 2024\, with the reception on Tuesday\, October 10\, 2024\, 5 – 7pm. \n“Slow Draw” is a play on the Western-flavored phrase “quick draw\,” and nods to the various cultural movements grouped under the adjective “slow” – slow food\, slow fashion\, and so on. In that context\, “slowness” indicates a sense of care and attention to quality\, as an antidote to the rapidity and frantic busyness of modern life. Each of these artists labors over their drawings – fastidious\, careful\, and intensely observant. Particularly in the current visual environment\, where Artificial Intelligence can produce detailed images in a matter of seconds. there is a particular value to images made – deliberately\, thoughtfully\, and slowly – by a human hand. \nThe Metro Gallery at Reno City Hall is one of three galleries operated by the City of Reno. Metro Gallery is open to the public and free of charge. Gallery hours are Monday through Friday from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. The gallery is accessible through City Hall’s ground floor entrance on Virginia Street. Parking is available in the City Hall parking garage (NW corner of First St. & Center St.). Parking Validation can be found inside City Hall.

SUMMARY:Performing Arts Series Presents: Cyro Baptista
DESCRIPTION:One of the premiere percussionists on the planet\, Cyro Baptista leads his new innovative project CHAMA on a virtuosic trek through myriad musical traditions of the world. The project CHAMA\, is a non-stop\, carnivalesque journey going from one mythical town to the next; a surrealistic voyage with its cast of heroes\, demigods\, freaks and monsters. The amazement of this program lies in its exquisite musicality and its capacity for leapfrogging from genre to genre\, each marked by his haunting\, soulful wit. Baptista’s visionary approach to music-making stresses inclusion\, community and pushing past boundaries\, while remaining refreshingly fun. \nCyro’s endless sonic curiosity and intense rhythmic led him to create serval ensembles and record many albums of his own\, touring continuously throughout the world with them. His talent and versatility have led to associations with a diverse array of leading jazz\, rock\, pop\, classical\, avant-garde and Brazilian artists\, all influenced by his unique touch. Cyro has a great interest in education and sharing his knowledge and experiences\, especially to underserved factions of society through his “Sound of Community” initiative. He is described by Thom Jurek of All Music as “simply one of the most limitless musicians we have.” \nParking is free on arts-events evenings (after 6:30 p.m.) in the Brian J.

This original production choreographed by award winning artist Ananda Bena-Weber to the hauntingly beautiful music of Astor Piazolla\, draws upon Transylvanian folklore and history and includes drama\, intrigue\, suspense\, sensuality\, romance\, deception\, mystery\, horror\, death and murder with a touch of Victorian era eroticism. \nThe story is based on the novel by Bram Stoker\, published in 1897 which begins when solicitor Jonathan Harker who is in love with his fiancée\, Mina Murray\, takes a business trip to stay at the castle of a Transylvanian nobleman\, Count Dracula. Harker escapes the castle after discovering that Dracula is a vampire\, and the Count moves to England and plagues the seaside town of Whitby encountering several interesting characters including Mina and her best friend\, the beautiful Lucy Westenra and her three suitors. After Lucy dies mysteriously\,  a small group\, led by Abraham Van Helsing\, hunt Dracula and\, in the end\, kill him. \nMany of the story’s characters have entered popular culture as archetypal versions of themselves.  Count Dracula is the quintessential vampire\, and Abraham Van Helsing is the iconic vampire hunter. The story has been adapted numerous times in films\, Theater productions and ballets. \nTwo International ballet premier dancers\, Malachi Squires and Domingo Rubio lead a full cast of professional dancers with wonderful costumes and innovative sets.  Bena-Weber’s new adaptation with Tango inspired choreography captures the imagination of fantasy lovers with just enough intrigue and mystery to satisfy horror fans. \nDress in your favorite costume and be prepared to be frightened!!! Then join us for refreshments and dancing at the DRACULA BALL on Oct. 26 at the Renaissance Hotel immediately following the Pioneer performance.  \n  \nFor ticket information about this event\, and to RSVP for the DRACULA BALL contact the Sierra Nevada Ballet\, visit sierranevadaballet.org or call (775) 360-8663 \nThis production follows Jack Neal’s prediction of success for SNB when he wrote: “ at last a truly professional dance company emerging in the Reno metropolitan area”.    \n  \nVersatile and innovative\, Sierra Nevada Ballet is northern Nevada’s professional ballet company and incorporates the popular with the experimental.  Always a crowd pleaser\, the Ballet offers music and different types of dance from well known classical to new age contemporary original pieces.

SUMMARY:SIERRA NEVADA BALLET PRESENTS DRACULA
DESCRIPTION:In keeping with the Halloween spirit\, Sierra Nevada Ballet presents a new original full length dramatic story in dance\, DRACULA-The Ballet on October 18\, 2024 at 7:30 PM at the Carson City Community Center and on October 26 at 7:00 PM at the Pioneer Center for Performing Arts in Reno. In celebration of the season\, the audience is invited to meet the cast and have a party at the fabulous DRACULA BALL which follows immediately after the Pioneer performance at the Renaissance Hotel with refreshments and dancing.  Get ballet tickets early and RSVP for the Ball. \nDracula – The Ballet which premiered in 2023 is brought back by audience demand and is the original story ballet created from one of the most famous pieces of English literature about the frightening vampire Count from Transylvania. This original production choreographed by award winning artist Ananda Bena-Weber to the hauntingly beautiful music of Astor Piazolla\, draws upon Transylvanian folklore and history and includes drama\, intrigue\, suspense\, sensuality\, romance\, deception\, mystery\, horror\, death and murder with a touch of Victorian era eroticism. \nThe story is based on the novel by Bram Stoker\, published in 1897 which begins when solicitor Jonathan Harker who is in love with his fiancée\, Mina Murray\, takes a business trip to stay at the castle of a Transylvanian nobleman\, Count Dracula. Harker escapes the castle after discovering that Dracula is a vampire\, and the Count moves to England and plagues the seaside town of Whitby encountering several interesting characters including Mina and her best friend\, the beautiful Lucy Westenra and her three suitors. After Lucy dies mysteriously\,  a small group\, led by Abraham Van Helsing\, hunt Dracula and\, in the end\, kill him. \nMany of the story’s characters have entered popular culture as archetypal versions of themselves.  Count Dracula is the quintessential vampire\, and Abraham Van Helsing is the iconic vampire hunter. The story has been adapted numerous times in films\, Theater productions and ballets. \nTwo International ballet premier dancers\, Malachi Squires and Domingo Rubio lead a full cast of professional dancers with wonderful costumes and innovative sets.  Bena-Weber’s new adaptation with Tango inspired choreography captures the imagination of fantasy lovers with just enough intrigue and mystery to satisfy horror fans. \nDress in your favorite costume and be prepared to be frightened!!! Then join us for refreshments and dancing at the DRACULA BALL on Oct. 26 at the Renaissance Hotel immediately following the Pioneer performance.  \n  \nFor ticket information about this event\, and to RSVP for the DRACULA BALL contact the Sierra Nevada Ballet\, visit sierranevadaballet.org or call (775) 360-8663 \nThis production follows Jack Neal’s prediction of success for SNB when he wrote: “ at last a truly professional dance company emerging in the Reno metropolitan area”.    \n  \nVersatile and innovative\, Sierra Nevada Ballet is northern Nevada’s professional ballet company and incorporates the popular with the experimental.  Always a crowd pleaser\, the Ballet offers music and different types of dance from well known classical to new age contemporary original pieces.
