September 5, 2008

Want to see the hottest British theater performance of last year?
It's playing ONLY in Ann Arbor...at the University Musical Society .

Complicite's A Disappearing Number

Only 6 performances -- September 10-14, at the Power Center  

Following its triumphant production of The Elephant Vanishes in 2004, the theater company Complicite returns to Ann Arbor for the exclusive US presentation of its innovative, award-winning hit, A Disappearing Number, a multimedia theatrical exploration about math and the meaning of life.

We hope that you will join UMS for this exciting production, which opens the 08/09 season. There are only six performances before it moves on Paris, London, Milan, and Mumbai. UMS has scheduled several free educational events in conjunction with these performances, including a book club and a behind-the-scenes overview of the technology that makes the performance work. More information about these activities, as well as background information about and video clips of the work, is available at  www.ums.org/number.

Tickets are always available online at www.ums.org, but if you prefer the human touch, please call or visit our Ticket Office at 734-764-2538.  Students may purchase tickets for selected performances (Weds Sept 10, Thurs Sept 11, or Sat, Sept 13 at 2 pm) for 50% off the published ticket price by presenting their student ID at the Michigan League Ticket Office.
