Autumn Under the Umbrella

9/24/2018

Summer took its final bow and autumn has made its blustering chilly entrance. And with the new season comes a harvest of new theatre, and workshops, to attend. So, put on that extra layer, get your favorite spiced (or non-spiced) beverage, and go catch the collective making their thing. Here's a list of where you can see members of Umbrella Collective this fall:

Once
at Theatre Latte Da

On the streets of Dublin, an Irish songwriter and a Czech immigrant are drawn together by their shared love of music. Over the course of one fateful week, their unexpected friendship and collaboration quickly evolves into a powerful but complicated love story, propelled by emotionally charged music. Winner of 8 Tony Awards including Best Musical, Once is an artistic triumph about the power of music to connect us all.

Antonia Perez quadruple threats her way through the show; singing, dancing, acting and playing instruments. Foster Johns coached dialects for this well received regional premiere.

September 12th - October 21st, 2018

Dial M for Murder
at Gremlin Theatre

Gremlin Theatre is proud to present one of the most famous thrillers of all time, staged in the up-close and intimate style of our new thrust theatre. Dial M for Murder is indeed a psychological game of cat and mouse; and of life and death.

Emily Dussault is 'characteristically superb' (Jay Gabler, City Pages) in this classic thriller.

Anyone under 30: pay half your age

The Visit
at Frank Theatre

THE VISIT, by Swiss playwright Friedrich Durrenmatt, is the most well-known play by one of the most important playwrights since the Second World War. Set in a small town that is in a deep economic depression, the townspeople await the visit of Claire Zachanassian, who was driven out of town as a young girl years ago because she was pregnant. Now the wealthiest person in the world who has just married her 8th husband, she returns to a town that desperately hopes her millions will save them. She, however, has a different agenda, returning with the mission to buy justice: she will offer the town her fortune in exchange for the life of the man who not only spurned her but rigged the public trial against her.

Allison Witham joins the cast which also features a handful of friends of the Collective

September 28th - October 21st, 2018
Minnesota Transportation Museum, St. Paul

2018 Twin Cities horror Festival

The Twin Cities Horror Festival returns for its seventh season of horror based-theatricals.
This year Leslie Vincent joins friend of the Collective Keith Hovis in creating a new song cycle about serial killers entitled A Morbid History of Sons and Daughters.

While Nissa Nordland goes behind the scenes to stage manage Dangerous Productions' Home.

We've produced at the horror festival in the past and it is always equal parts entertaining and chilling--perfect for late October.
