MISS DONNITHORNE'S MAGGOT AND EIGHT SONGS FOR A MAD KING
A dark, humorous, and disturbing compilation of songs that explores
eroticism, lunacy, authority, and decaying intellect. The music is a
pastiche of avant-garde, baroque, and English dance-hall styles.
Theatrical masterworks explore the profound connection sound has to the
human psyche, staged with dance and media content.
March 20-21 - 7:30pm ATLAS Black Box Theater, students $7 (others $12).
Reserve at www.fusionchamer.org or call 303-786-0447.
