Socorro – Fabulous Feats of Physical Fun! The Tweaksters innovative mix of acrobatic dance and artistic juggling blends pure athletic creativity with odd objects in a rhythmic, crazy cool performance designed to tweak and delight audiences of all ages. "Specialists at transforming the mundane into the magical" (L.A. Times), Regan Patno and Julia Snyder "have created a new genre of performing arts." (Greeley Tribune)
The Tweaksters perform as part of NM Tech’s Performing Arts Series at Macey Center on Friday, Feb. 24 starting at 7:30 pm. Tickets are $16 for adults; $14 for seniors; and $12 for youth. The show is sponsored by Aerojet, NMT SA, Super 8, Chartwells and EMRTC.
With the Tweaksters, you can’t imagine what you’ll experience next. From ping-pong air raids to glow-in-the-dark illusions to skillful feats of strength and balance, this 70 minute pulse-quickening adventure keeps audiences oohing and aahing. Sometimes regarded as “the Blue Man Group without the paint” the Tweaksters use their athletic prowess and fertile imaginations to deftly manipulate flower pots, meteors, luminescent ropes and galvanized pipes– not to mention each other – tweaking all the way.

Socorro – NM Tech’s Performing Arts Series brings The Acting Company to Macey Center to perform the “Three Musketeers” on Thursday, March 23 starting at 7:30 pm.
A swashbuckling adventure in this entertaining new stage adaptation, this classic coming of age tale follows the brave young d’Artagnan as he changes from country boy to daring hero, not only rescuing the kidnapped Constance but also preserving the honor of the Queen herself.
The Acting Company has garnered critical acclaim on a national scale through 30 seasons and nearly 100 productions of great classics, together with the best of contemporary theater and several world premieres. Says the New York Times: “The Acting Company endures as the major touring classical theatre in the United States.”
The TONY honored Acting Company presents the story that not only traces the brave deeds of its heroes, it also chronicles the conflict between two historic periods — the waning era of chivalry embodied in the Musketeers’ courtly code of ethics, and the rise of the modern nation state embodied in the shrewd politics of Cardinal Richelieu. This clash of history is played out on an international stage chock full of swordfights, romance and heartbreak.
Tickets are $16 for adults; $14 for seniors; and $12 for youth. The show is sponsored by El Defensor Chieftain and First State Bank.
