STINKY CHEESE MAN & OTHER FAIRLY STUPID TALES / Capitol Center (Concord) / 10:30am โ€“ DIRECT/x

In a twist on classic tales, Jack, having successfully stolen from the giant, finds himself in a perilous predicament as the awakened giant pursues him down the beanstalk. To avoid becoming the giant’s next meal, Jack desperately weaves altered versions of familiar stories, from a hare-racing tortoise to “Cinderumplestiltskin,” hoping to entertain and distract his hungry pursuer.

His efforts are complicated by the constant interruptions of the persistent Little Red Hen and the arrival of the peculiar Stinky Cheese Man, highlighting the playful reimagining of well-known narratives and the joy of creating new possibilities within them.www.ccanh.com or (603)225-1111

MNOZIL BRASS: STRAUSS โ€“ โ€œKING OF THE WALTZโ€ / Center for the Arts (Nashua) / 7:30pm โ€“ DIRECT/x

The line between the elegant swirl of a Viennese waltz and the easygoing swing of a pop standard is thinner than you might thinkโ€”just a warm, embracing dance step away. And who better to explore this delightful musical crossover than the seven brass masters of Mnozil Brass? For over thirty years, these virtuosos have effortlessly waltzed between genres, gliding from Johann Strauss to Frank Sinatra, Shostakovich to Prince, Schubert to Queen. They embrace the grandeur of classical music and the irresistible charm of pop with equal joy, never afraid to mix the sublime with the playful.

Now, Mnozil Brass ties it all together in their latest stage sensation: Strau$$. The โ€œKing of the Waltzโ€ was admired by Brahms, Wagner, Verdi, Gershwinโ€”and just about everyone else. A true pioneer, Strauss composed hit after hit, revolutionized music distribution, and became a mass phenomenonโ€”not to mention a financial genius. With Strau$$, Mnozil Brass lays it all bare. Every flourish, every secret, every last twist and turn of the waltzโ€™s golden ageโ€”until nothing remains but the naked truth. www.nashuacenterforthearts.comor (800)657-8774
