Trap music uses contrasting synthesizers, “cinematic” strings, pitched-down vocals, and especially its engine, the Roland 808 drum machine. Ominous bleak and gritty lyrics about street life, poverty, and violence in the inner city -- the “trap.” A great show, but u gotta be in the mood. 21+, $8 advance, $13 door.

As complicated as farce, good fun and good experience for West Fargo HS actors and actresses.
