All Ages Welcome!
Y hosts a bus to the Grand Theater, Wausau
Registration Deadline - February 3
The YMCA will be offering a bus trip to the Grand Theater, Wausau for the performance of STOMP on Thursday, March 22. STOMP is explosive, sophisticated, unique, and appeals to audiences of all ages. This is a must see performance of the international percussion sensation right in our own backyard. The eight-member troupe uses everything but conventional percussion instruments-matchboxes, wooden poles, brooms, garbage cans, Zippo lighters, hubcaps-to fill the stage with magnificent rhythms.
The cost for this theater performance is $70. The bus leaves the Y, Rhinelander at 5:45PM for the 7:30PM performance. Seats are limited so please register by February 3 by calling the YMCA at 715-362-9622.
