Interesting-Sounding Play "The Piano Tuner"

This write-up was in this morning's Minneapolis Star-Tribune
newspaper. I tried to find a link online, but couldn't.

'The Piano Tuner'
Opening Thursday: Often sweet, sometimes disturbing and nearly always
poignant, the original dance-theater-music works dreamed up by the
artistic collaborators of Live Action Set are as much an adventure in
theatergoing as poetic revelations about the human condition. The
troupe's new work, "The Piano Tuner," was reportedly inspired by
plunks and plucks emanating from the Southern Theater's own piano
under the assured hands of a master tuner. The collaborators found
drama in the discord, and created a piece that examines how a
community of dissonant individuals retunes itself into harmony. Expect
the brilliant physical comedy of Megan Odell, the intrepid clowining
of Galen Treuer and Noah Bremer, and the cool elegance of Vanessa
Voskuil to reveal the unexpected. (8 p.m. Thu., next Fri. & April 12,
7 p.m. April 13, Southern Theater, 1420 Washington Av. S., Mpls. $18.
612-340-1725.)
