News from the WISCONSIN UNION THEATER


 Greetings!


It's been an incredible year. Per usual, the Union Theater's stages have been filled with performances by hundreds of students as well as outstanding music, dance and theater by many of the world's great performers. And I promise that this spring performances will be even more amazing. As we plan for our historic preservation, we also celebrate the great history of this theater by presenting dozens of great shows including Gaelic Storm, Bela Fleck and the Original Flecktones, Comedy Central's Gabriel Iglesias, David Finckel, Wu Han and Philip Setzer, Pilobolus, Seun Kuti and Egypt 80, Leahy, and so much more. I hope you find time to spend in this terrific old theater before we pause for a brief intermission starting in June 2012.

 

On behalf of the entire Union Theater staff, I hope your holidays are filled with joy and we look forward to seeing you at the theater.

 

Best!

 

RalphRusso, Theater Director

 

PS The spring shows are selling very well so don't delay purchasing your tickets.
