BOUAND DANCECOMPANY
"SideShow" scenic design by Peter Rossing
Why do we want you to know about a great new
Portland-based contemporary ballet company? Not
only so you can see some exciting dancing and
choreography, but also so you can see some art on a
large scale by Muse owner, Peter Rossing.
Peter designed scenery for theater for many years
before opening Muse, and this production marks a
return to an artform he loves.
SideShow takes inspiration from Ray
Bradbury's Something Wicked This Way
Comes and features live musical accompaniment
by Portland favorite, 3 Leg Torso.
October 5 and 6, 7:30 p.m.
PSU Lincoln Hall
1620 S.W. Park Ave.

HALLOWEEN FUN

lasts forever? Nothing sets your creativity free like

the ordinary, and C) enjoyed for one night only!
At Muse, we have plaster wrap, paper mache, face
paint, glitter paint, glues, colored papers, and all sort
of fun things to create something extraordinary for your
costume party or Halloween event. Make it simple or
elaborate, but let your imagination run wild!
