'Dance Nation' by Clare Barron at The LAB LV

The LAB LV presents Dance Nation by Clare Barron, directed by Kate St-Pierre

Somewhere in America, a revolution is coming, an army of pre-teen competitive dancers plot to take over the world one routine at a time. And if they're good enough, they’ll claw their way to the top of the Boogie Down Grand Prix. But these young dancers have more than choreography on their minds, because every plié and jeté is a step toward finding themselves, and a fight to unleash their power. With a pre-teen battle for power and perfection raging on and off stage, Dance Nation is a ferocious exploration of youth, ambition and self-discovery.

Men On Boats by Jaclyn Backhaus at Vegas Theatre Company

Ten explorers. Four boats. One Grand Canyon. MEN ON BOATS is the true(ish) history of an 1869 expedition, when a one-armed captain and a crew of insane yet loyal volunteers set out to chart the course of the Colorado River. Masculinity and manifest destiny meet their gender-flipped match in this hilarious and highly physical show. With a powerhouse ALL FEMALE cast, directed by the brilliant Allegra Libonati (Celestia, American Repertory Theatre) this is going to be a night in the theatre you won't want to miss.

2/20/2020 - 3/15/2020

Friday 7:30 (no show Friday 3/6) Saturday 2pm and 7:30pm Sunday 5pm

Tickets

“…off-the-canyon-walls funny…” —Variety. “...marvelously destabilizing both as history and theater. The stalwartness and selfishness of the adventurers—their cockiness and cluelessness—become biting satire when sent up by women." —NY Magazine. “…you will surely want to spend time with the hearty title characters of MEN ON BOATS…[a] rollicking history pageant…MEN ON BOATS makes canny use of the obvious distance between performers and their roles to help bridge the distance between then and now…The tone is comic, but never cute or camp. And ultimately, you feel, the play respects its bold if fallible pioneers, in all their natural bravery and fearfulness.” —The New York Times. Suitable for ages 11 and up. Contains some strong language.
