of the Moon October 15th – November 12th As the moon edges into darkness, a cry for help goes out from a remote fishing shack.

Neil
Young's GREENDALE Performed with a live band and sung by an ensemble cast, Greendale explores the lives of three generations of the Green family through themes ranging from corruption to mass media consolidation to environmentalism.
The
Snow Queen As adults we are told that we must grow up and leave the fairytale world behind but Lynne Alvarez, distinguished playwright and poet, has a different idea. She has bridged this gap and created a link to the world of fairytales in this new play commissioned by Undermain Theatre. In The Snow Queen, Alvarez has fashioned a beautiful ice covered world set in Denmark in the early 1890s to showcase the grandeur that is love. As in most fairytales, this story too revolves around the ideals of love and the lengths we go for love. But just as the seasons change, just as birds migrate, just as snows melt, so do our feelings, until we find that one true love. CLICK HERE to read Lawson Taitte's (of The Dallas Morning News) story featuring Lynne Avarez, UMT and The Snow Queen
