Gina Bachauer International Piano Foundation and SB Dance: Mozart’s Piano Sonata No 16 (First Movement) and Swimming by SB Dance | Musician Arthur Schnabel described Mozart's piano sonatas as "too easy for children but too difficult for pianists". Possibly the most famous of the set of sonatas, this piece demands careful treatment to remain fluent and light. Constrained to "swimming motions" of the arms and torso, the dance is also deceivingly simple but achieving the full range of articulation is a butt-kicker, both mentally and physically. Pianist is Kary Billings. Showings at 10:50am, 11:25am, and 2:55pm in the Black Box.


Gina Bachauer International Piano Foundation and Plan-B Theatre Company: Sergei Prokofiev’s Peter and the Wolf: A Musical Tale for Children | Featuring Kary Billings on piano and actor Jay Perry, directed by Christy Summerhays. About Peter and the Wolf: An interactive journey through the classic story of the hungry wolf, the ill-fated duck, the fortunate cat, the fearless little bird, and the brave and cunning Peter.  For children ages 10 and under. Showings at 9:30am, 10am, and noon in the Jeanné Wagner Theatre.


Plan-B Theatre Company: Reading of #mormoninchief by Matthew Greene | Featuring Topher Rasmussen, Latoya Rhodes and Sarah Young, directed by Jerry Rapier.

Showing at 1:00pm in the Black Box.


Pygmalion Theatre Company: A full performance of The Mysterious, Happy Life of Brown Bag by Greg Near | A funny, poignant exploration of what it means to be different in a harsh world. It is a modern fable that tells the story of an unusual little boy who wants nothing more than to experience everything around him, including going to first grade and interacting with other children, in spite of his mother's fears and his teacher's misgivings.

It is recommended for families with kids 4 and above, but young children are welcome.
