) Brüka Theatre announces the 2009/2010 season. Brüka enters the 17th season with plays written by Pulitzer Prize winning authors and northern Nevada premiere productions including original works from the Brüka ensemble and local playwrights. Our opening night audience will enjoy a champagne reception with the cast and crew following the opening Friday night performance. In an effort to create conversation and participation with our community, we will also feature talks with the company following most Sunday matinees.
The season opens with the mind bending and humorous play The Architect and The Emperor Of Assyria, written by Ferdinand Arrabal, directed by Tom Plunkett (October 2 – 30). Just in time for the holidays comes a charmingly blasphemous Yuletide tale The Weber Family Christmas by Fratelli Bologna, directed by Rodney Hurst, winner of the San Francisco Dramalogue award. In the spring, Pulitzer prize winning play Angels In America, Millennium Approaches by Tony Kushner, directed by Dave Anderson (February 19 – March 20, 2010); The Book of Liz written by The Talent Family of David and Amy Sedaris, directed by Jim Martin (April 9 - May 1, 2010) and the broad and ridiculous Great American Trailer Park The Musical written by David Nehls and Betsy Kelso, directed by Mary Bennett (May 14 – June 19, 2010). Androo Allen directs the Dog Sees God by Bert V. Royal, as part of the Artown festival (July 2 – July 31, 2010)
Offered in our sub-Brüka space Bug by Pulitzer prize winning author Tracey Letts, directed by David Richards (January 15 – January 30, 2010); An original work, created by The Brüka Ensemble Love Squared lead by Stacey Spain and Holly Natwora (February 11 - 14, 2010); Also Four Original Play Readings written and performed by various authors and actors (throughout the season); Brüka’s Theatre for Children is back with another installation in the Grimm’s Project, Grimm’s Adaptations II, with public performances (April, 2010) touring schools and communities (April – July, 2010): and we will celebrate Halloween at our 12th annual Freakers Ball, costume party extravaganza (October 31, 2009 – 9 pm).
Season subscriptions are now available for the eight shows and variety of events offered by Brüka. Subscribing has been long considered the single most cost-efficient way to see theater and support the company as they embark on the many costs of producing a new season. You can also become a friend of Brüka to show your support. Information is available on the website at www.bruka.org
