CONTACT, The Musical
At the Curran Theater

The dance-theater piece which took Broadway by storm and winner of four Tonys, CONTACT consists of three spoken one-act mini-dramas written by John Weidman. The evening is performed by a troupe of exuberant dancer-actors and accompanied by recordings ranging from Benny Goodman and Stephane Grappelli to Robert Palmer and the Squirrel Nut Zippers. Stroman's choreography glides easily from wicked ballet parody to jet-propelled swing, galvanizing the stage with humor, passion and emotion in the three mini-dramas, which take the action from an aristocratic lady on a swing, to an unhappy housewife who takes refuge in wild fantasies of life as a ballerina, and a would-be suicide who wanders into a swing-dancing joint. MAX has excellent orchestra seats for $80 members, $90 guests. Call Ken Wrasse at 950-591-1546 for tickets.
