~~~ Plan B Theater Company – http://planbtheatre.org/

May 30-June 15, 2008
Studio Theatre @ the Rose
138 West 300 South, SLC
Written by Martin Moran

A true story of sexuality, spirituality and the mystery of human experience.

THE TRICKY PART is one of the most heralded one-man plays in recent memory.
Between the ages of 12 and 15, the author had a sexual relationship with an older man.

More than 30 years later, he has transformed his story into a riveting, often funny and

always surprising journey through the complexities of Catholicism, desire and human trespass.

Call 355.ARTS for individual tickets (or) visit the Rose Wagner box office in person (or) http://www.arttix.org/tickets/search.aspx?org=Plan-B+Theatre+Company

~~~ Salty Crickets Composers Collective - http://www.saltycricket.org

The Stridulation Concert

strid·u·la·tion: a shrill, grating, or chirping noise made by insects through rubbing
body parts together. The Stridulation Concert is crunchy, savory new music performed
by string quartets, piano trios, and pretty much anything else that involves friction;
featuring the Stradivarius String Quartet and Nicole Biggs, piano.
