directed by Hal Berry
The life narrative of Black Elk is brought to
life in this adaptation of John Neihardt’s
1932 biography. Black Elk was present at the 1876 Battle of Little Big Horn and
the 1890 Wounded Knee Massacre. His conversations with Neihardt provide
insight into the social and ethical challenges faced by Native American
tribes. The music, dance, and spirituality of the Oglala Sioux people
used in this play highlight this unique and volatile period of American
history. |

A hilarious musical adaptation of the familiar fairy tale, The Princess and the Pea, in which Prince Dauntless is patiently waiting for his true princess to appear, in spite of his overbearing mother’s persistence to keep him single. Raucous and romantic song and dance numbers are the highlight of this rollicking spin on royal courtship and comeuppance. |
