Rehearses and performs at the Lab Theater in Minneapolis on a double bill with The Land of Polished Stones.

The Land of Polished Stones

The Land of Polished Stones is an epic tale of life and death — an earthy, dramatic, poetic work with a comic edge. This original, ensemble created evening of dance-theater will be highly physical and imagistic, requiring full bodied movement from all cast members - actors and dancers. Performers should come to rehearsal ready to move, vocalize, experiment and invent. Our process and final piece will be based in “Total Theater”: the idea that all elements of performance (movement, visuals, music, text) are equally important and should be conceived and developed simultaneously. The Land of Polished Stones has principal roles for both experienced dancers and actors as well as up to three or more instrumentalists who are able to compose or improvise. Vocalists are welcome, but must be willing to move. In preparation for J-term, 2-3 casting and development workshops will be held fall semester. Please contact Jon Ferguson ([email protected]) or Sarah Jacobs ([email protected]) with questions. For dancers, actors and musicians.

Rehearses at the Lowry Lab Theater Techs and performs on the Minnesota Centennial Showboat in St. Paul Departure Point Creating New Music with Zeitgeist

Departure Point is a composition/performance workshop for music students interested in exploring new and traditional ways of creating new work. Students will meet with Zeitgeist members for 4 hours each day at Zeitgeist’s performance space, Studio Z. Our activities will focus on the composition and rehearsal of two large works created by students in collaboration with the members of Zeitgeist. We will create these new works in a unique way. Students will select two themes to serve as a framework for a large composition made up of smaller compositions (Paintings by Picasso, Dante’s The Divine Comedy, Silent Movie Stars, etc). Students will be split evenly between the two themes, and each student will be responsible for creating one element of our large work. These works can be completely composed, or they can contain degrees of improvisation. They can require the entire group’s performance participation, or they can be written for any subset of the group. Throughout the process, Zeitgeist and guest composers/improvisers from our community will perform works for the students in order to enhance and inspire the creative process. In the end, we will have two works that contain the creative contribution of each student, created under a framework developed by everyone, and rehearsed and performed collaboratively by students and Zeitgeist.

Zeitgeist is a new music chamber group of two percussionists, woodwinds, and piano based in the Twin Cities. As the only full-time chamber ensemble in the Twin Cities wholly dedicated to the performance of new music, Zeitgeist is a unique cultural resource for audiences in our community. They present a concert series, maintain a performance space (Studio Z) and carry out a variety of audience enrichment programs for members of our community. You can learn more about Zeitgeist at www.zeitgeistnewmusic.org.

This project is great for students who are looking to explore puppetry as a theatrical tool, who have an interest in the visual arts and making things, and who are interested in creating original work.

Rodgers and Hammerstein's immortal Carousel was named by Time Magazine in 1999 as the single greatest musical of the 20th century. "If I Loved You," "Soliloquy" and "You'll Never Walk Alone" are just a few of the songs that helped reinvent musical theatre in its day with its lush score and seamless integration of song, story, and dance. Set in a small New England town, the story of an impulsive, brash carnival barker and his bride spans heaven and earth in its exploration of love, human frailty, and redemption. This concertized version will rehearse at the University of Minnesota, SPCPA, and will perform at the O’Shaughnessy Auditorium at St. Kate’s.

Into the Woods Book by James Lapine Music and Lyrics by Stephen Sondheim

An ambivalent Cinderella? A blood-thirsty Little Red Ridinghood? A Charming with a roving eye? A Witch...who raps? They're all among the cockeyed characters in James Lapine and Stephen Sondheim's fractured fairy tale. When a Baker and his Wife learn they've been cursed with childlessness by the Witch next door, they embark on a quest for the special objects required to break the spell, swindling, lying to and stealing from Cinderella, Little Red, Rapunzel and Jack (the one who climbed the beanstalk). What begins as a lively irreverent fantasy in the style of The Princess Bride becomes a moving lesson about community responsibility and the stories we tell our children.

Students must come to first rehearsal off-book and ‘off-song.’ Some pre-J-term rehearsals will be required. Rehearses and performs at the Illusion Theater in Minneapolis

The Arabian Nights By Mary Zimmerman

A play that Chicago Magazine recently called, “A feast for the eyes and ears,” and the New York Times hailed as a “celebration of the salutary powers of storytelling,” The Arabian Nights is based on the Book of the Thousand Nights and One Night. The play ties ancient Baghdad into the current Middle East. In the story, the King marries Scheherezade, who begins sharing with him tales of love, comedy, and dreams. Her cliffhanger stories prevent her husband, the cruel ruler Shahryar, from murdering her, and after 1,001 nights, Shahryar is cured of his madness, and Scheherezade returns to her family. This adaptation offers a wonderful blend of the lesser-known tales from Arabian Nights with the recurring theme of how the magic of storytelling holds the power to change people. The final scene brings the audience back to a modern day Baghdad with the wail of air raid sirens threatening the rich culture and history that are embodied by these tales. This production will likely use 3-4 instrumentalists.

The Arabian Nights Guest Director: Jason Ballweber Jason Ballweber received a BA in Theater from the University of Minnesota. While there he started working with Four Humors Theater and is now the Artistic Director. Jason has also performed with companies such as Theatre de la Jeune Lune, Three Sticks, Open Eye Figure Theatre, Jon Ferguson Theatre, Live Action Set, The Bedlam Theatre, The Minnesota Orchestra and The Know Theatre of Cincinnati where he won an Acclaim Award for his direction of Sideways Stories from Wayside School.

As You Like It By William Shakespeare

One of Shakespeare’s most enjoyable comedies, As You Like It has achieved immortality if for nothing else than for being the play to contain the timeless refrain:

All the world's a stage, And all the men and women merely players: They have their exits and their entrances; And one man in his time plays many parts.

It is a wonderful lark of a play, a delightful combination of equal parts sweet romance, pastoral whimsy, and downright hilarity. It is a play suitable for all ages, and one that leaves audience members grinning long after the epilogue.

Rehearses at Park Square Theatre in St. Paul Performs at the History Theatre in St. Paul Some students will be required to come to first rehearsal off-book.
