Just a friendly note to let all my RMP friends know about a great local production that's taking place during the next couple weeks: After-Show Entertainment: 11/12-Mark Earnest, 11/13 The Electric Catfish, 11/18 Michelle Pappas, 11/19, Burning Peace (with Todd South), 11/21 Gabe Hilton & The Grups. Hazards of Love - A Tribute to the Decemberists The Hazards of Love is a Folk Rock Opera written by the incredibly diverse and virtuosic Indie band "The Decemberists" and it is being staged and performed live by some of Reno's premier musical and dance talent. Hazards of Love is an Mythical tale of two lovers who meet by chance through the veil that separates the mundane from the Magical. In a dark Forest, called a Taiga, the Heroine ventures beyond the safety of her village into the strange mystic woods where she happens upon a wounded creature. As she stops to help, the creature transforms into a man and they fall instantly in love. There is - as ever in the darker fairy tales - a deadly twist; and the lovers face the jealous wrath of the great forest queen and the lust of the bold and remorseless villain. The Show is staged with full ballet including aerial silks, classical and some modern movement. All music is live and features a wide variety of studio performers, professional musicians and a few extremely precocious youth. Part of proceeds will be given to the Reno High School Orchestra for instrument acquisition, repair and replacement. Audiences are encouraged, should they so desire to dress in "old timey" or Steampunk attire... just for fun. Directed and Produced by Jill Marlene, Musical Direction by Raymundo Silva and Chris Nelson, Choreography by Lindsy Roberts and Company.
