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.

This princess, like Hans Christian Andersen’s, must detect the presence of a pea under 20 mattresses, but also undergo other ordeals, including playing the minstrel’s lute, lifting barbells, and drinking herself unconscious. As complicated as farce, good fun and good experience for West Fargo HS actors and actresses.
