Concert Hall   7:30 pm

$40, $30, $15; Youth 17 and under: $12, Five College Students: $15, $10, $7 

For two decades, MOMIX has been celebrated by packed houses wherever it goes, never ceasing to delight and amaze audiences with its ability to conjure up a world of surrealistic images using props, light, shadow, humor and the human body. Artistic Director Moses Pendleton's latest production, Lunar Sea, conjures another world where the laws of gravity and limitations of form no longer exist. Filled with acrobatic choreography, fantastical puppets by Michael Curry of the Lion King design team and an amazing array of light and sound effects, Lunar Sea transcends this dimension and reality. A musical collage that includes Buddha Experience, Brian Eno and Hans Zimmer makes it very accessible to students.

Momix will be glowing in the dark and your taste buds will be glowing with delight at a prix fixe dinner prior to the show at the University Club. A Special menu has been created in keeping with the theme of Lunar Sea. Choose from an orange dusted salmon filet with brightly colored lime, mango and red pepper relish or the vegetarian choice of squash filled raviolis with the chef's special electric sauce. Dinner also includes tossed baby greens salad, warm rolls and special selection of desserts, coffee or tea. All for the prix fixe of $25. Seating begins at 5pm. Make your reservations now by calling the box office at 545-2511 when purchasing your tickets. The University Club is located on Stockbridge Rd to the north of lot 62.
