Alcina's Island: A Picnic Operetta
Riverfront locations:
Friday, September 16 (Parking Day), 12 noon; First Street North and Third Avenue North
Saturday, October 1, 4 pm; Nicollet Island Farm, Nicollet Street and Maple Place
In a unique marriage of the theatrical arts and the sustainable foods movement, Mixed
Precipitation presents Handel's 1735 masterpiece Alcina, in a unique adaptation touring to
community garden spaces during the 2011 harvest season. In its third season, this celebration of
music and food is becoming a neighborhood tradition. Director Scotty Reynolds, in collaboration
with music director Marya Hart, choreographer Nancy Nair, chef Nick Schneider and fourteen
singers and musicians. Handel's 1735 opera is based on an episode from the swashbuckling epic
poem Orlando Furioso by Ludovico Ariosto—a tale of spells, rings of invisibility and magic lances.
In our colorful re-imagining, the garden becomes a truck stop on the American highway and
scheming sorceresses Alcina and Morgana become magical truck stop waitresses. Through the
power of their dark magic, they lure brave truckers astray and transform them into the enchanted
flora and fauna that populates their island paradise. We combine Handel’s early baroque with
trucker songs and classic country from the likes of Merle Haggard, Tammy Wynette and Buck
Owens. This magical story is family friendly and full of adventure. The magic of this island is all the
more savory, with Chef Nick Schneider's five-course sampling menu of locally sourced treats
created especially for this performance. Our story is told in Italian, Spanish, English and the
universal language of food! Please call 612-619-2112 or visit http://www.mixedprecipitation.org for
reservations. Seating is very limited; please call ahead for reservations. The performance requires
some movement for the audience. Voluntary donations ($10 -- $20) will be collected at the end of
the performance, but no one will be turned away for lack of funds. This activity is made possible in
part by a grant provided by the Metropolitan Regional Arts Council through an appropriation by the
Minnesota State Legislature from the Minnesota arts and cultural heritage fund with money from the
vote of the people of Minnesota on November 4, 2008.

experience with the river as a part of River Rangers. See how stories, resources and issues
connect spatially with the River Atlas – a bird’s eye view of rivers and river issues. For more
information you can read our River Talk blog, and follow us on Facebook and Twitter. Rivers
represent perhaps the most complex biological and physical systems in the world. Yet our great
rivers are threatened: water quality and quantity both are at peril from overuse, from competing
uses and from a generalized failure to recognize how valuable and imperiled the resource really is.
Our work is grounded in a conviction that future river managers will need to be conversant in the
sciences, public policy, design, planning and in the engagement programs that reach the broadest
sectors of the populace. There’s great work happening all over. Exemplary projects, programs, and
places. All this and more at the River Life site riverlife.umn.edu. Go take a look and tell them what
