STAGE TUBE: Flash Mob Promotes Chanhassen's ALL SHOOK UP
by Nicole Rosky - August 27, 2010
On Sunday, August 22nd, 207 volunteers danced in a 'Flash Mob' performance at Mall of America to celebrate Chanhassen Dinner Theatres' new hit production of ALL SHOOK UP in a choreographed rendition of 'JAILHOUSE ROCK.' The 'Flash Mob,' choreographed by Tamara Kangas-Erickson, featured several members of the ALL SHOOK UP cast and about 200 additional volunteers (from as far north as St. Cloud and as far south as Marshalltown, Iowa) who joined in the fun. Participants ranged in age from 7 to 70! The 'Flash Mob' number features the lead dancer from the Chanhassen production playing a character who busts out of jail and is eluding the law. Dancers are looking high and low for him. At one point in the dance, the group strips off their tops to reveal black and white t-shirts used to form jailhouse uniform stripes and a live beating heart for the 'heartthrob jailbird.' The entire 3.5 minute routine was rehearsed in just two rehearsals last week held at Chanhassen and Chaska High Schools.

Southern Theater Welcomes Brooklyn RIder and 2 Foot Yard, 8/24
by BWW News Desk - August 24, 2010
The genre-bending New York string quartet Brooklyn Rider illuminates music through adventurous programming, exploring new sound worlds with fresh insight and unusual collaborations. They are joined by the bold and hard-grooving 2 Foot Yard, a trio that merges the visceral power of rock with the intimacy of chamber music. Comprised of violinist/vocalist Carla Kihlstedt, cellist/vocalist Marika Hughes, and guitarist/percussionist Shahzad Ismaily, 2 Foot Yard is a group of kindred musical adventurers who write original songs that 'inventively straddle the classical and vernacular worlds without compromise to either side' (Stereophile Magazine). The two ensembles perform selections from their signature repertoires and come together for the Minnesota premiere of a jointly written composition entitled A Blue Hat Washed Up On Shore, loosely based on the Alan Lightman international bestselling novella Einstein's Dreams about the many natures of time.
