Fruit Flies Like a Banana - Saturday, April 1st 7:00 pm

Thank you so much for being part of Fruit Flies Like a Banana and thank you for supporting the Flambeau Valley Arts Association! Please consider helping them in their work by attending more performances!

If you enjoy the show and would like to support our work, please consider becoming an ongoing supporter through our Patreon or donating via PayPal. Your tax-deductable donations help us stay creative as a 501c3 nonprofit arts organization! We’re also big fans of crisp high fives.

We will be starting the first half of the show with "Waltz in Db-major, Op. 64, No. 1" by Frédéric Chopin, (a.k.a. “Tuxedo Black”) then you are in charge of the show order. Take a look at the color names and titles below so you’re ready to shout one out when The Fourth Wall says “Please pick a color!”

There will be an intermission once we’ve accomplished half of this list.

The second half will begin with “Les Toreadors” from Carmen by Georges Bizet. The show will continue also in random order so if you didn’t get to choose your favorite color, now’s your chance!
