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.

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.

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.

SUMMARY:The Laramie Project
DESCRIPTION:In October 1998\, a twenty-one-year-old student at the University of Wyoming was kidnapped\, severely beaten\, and left tied to a fence in the middle of the prairie outside Laramie\, Wyoming. His bloody\, bruised\, and battered body was not discovered until the next day\, and he died several days later in an area hospital. His name was Matthew Shepard\, and he was the victim of this assault because he was gay. Moisés Kaufman and fellow members of the Tectonic Theater Project made six trips to Laramie over the course of a year and a half\, in the aftermath of the beating and during the trial of the two young men accused of killing Shepard. They conducted more than 200 interviews with the people of the town. Some people interviewed were directly connected to the case\, while others were citizens of Laramie\, and the breadth of the reactions to the crime is fascinating. Kaufman and Tectonic Theater members have constructed a deeply moving theatrical experience from these interviews and their own experiences in Laramie.
