“Dimanche”: Chaliwaté and Focus Companies (University Musical Society)
Jan. 7–11. Two award-winning Belgian theater companies—one specializing in puppetry, the other in mime—use humor, video, puppets, and dance to explore, in parallel action, themes of the effects of climate change on a European family trying to eat their Sunday dinner and on wild animals in the Arctic Circle. “Gorgeously realized and sneakily terrifying, the play moves restively from the silly to the dreadful and back and forth again,” according to the New York Times. 7:30 p.m. (Wed.–Sat.) & 2 p.m. (Sat. & Sun.), Power Center. Tickets $44 in advance ($15–$20, students) at ums.org & by phone, and (if available) at the door. (734) 764–2538.
