It’s a swirling sandstorm of famous Arabian Tales from Ali Baba to Scheherazade\, and even Sinbad the Sailor\, as Aladdin journeys to find a magic lamp in a Cave of (not-so-great) Wonders. Along his way Aladdin seeks answers and advice from wise Genies\, a powerful Sultan\, and his own Mother to find a way to meet the Princess. However\, even with the lamp in hand\, Aladdin will have to learn that it takes more than a wish to make a good impression. Full of memorable characters\, from lost Penguins to talking Palm Trees\, this is an adventure worthy of 1\,001 laughs. \nSPECIAL WORKSHOPS \nTBD

Well\, it didn’t really\, but our story takes you on a frivolous frolic through the French countryside. The Ogres garden in the Mushroom patch while the Corn and Potato spies report back to Madame Gothel. Frenchy and his intense friends\, the Wood Elves\, do their best to help Rapunzel escape the grasp of Madame Gothel. The lost Prince\, Rapunzel’s parents\, and her friends the Unicorns try to help. Just when you think it’s safe to cross the bridge\, a Troll and Three Billy Goats Gruff get in the way. It doesn’t help that the Three Bears (or is it four) confuse Rapunzel with Goldilocks and chase her through the forest. Add to that the Gremlins trying to play tricks on everyone\, and you have chaos! Well\, it’s not that bad because the Pixies foil the Gremlins’ plans most of the time. In short\, Rapunzel and all the rest of the characters tell a silly tale of personal triumph and friendship. \nSPECIAL WORKSHOPS \nTBD

SUMMARY:FYPA Presents: Xanadu Jr. - A Roller Disco Mythology for Every Generation
DESCRIPTION:The year is 1980. Venice Beach is buzzing\, neon is humming\, and a frustrated young artist named Sonny Malone has just abandoned his mural of the nine Greek Muses. But the moment he storms off\, the impossible happens. The Muses burst to life (I’m Alive)\, and Kira\, secretly the Muse Clio\, hatches a plan to inspire Sonny toward artistic greatness. Disguised as an Australian roller skating dream girl\, she swoops in at the Santa Monica Pier and sets Sonny’s imagination spinning (Magic). His dream? To open a roller disco. \nBut inspiration has consequences. Kira’s success puts her one step closer to earning the legendary gift of Xanadu\, and her jealous sisters Melpomene and Calliope plot to curse her into falling in love with a mortal\, a forbidden act (Evil Woman). \nAs Sonny and Kira discover a rundown theater that might just become their dream (Suddenly)\, they cross paths with Danny Maguire\, a businessman whose own past with a Muse resurfaces in a flashback (Whenever You’re Away From Me). Soon\, visions collide\, disco lights flicker\, and the race begins to restore the theater\, now revealed to be named Xanadu\, before time runs out (Dancin’\, Strange Magic\, All Over the World). \nBut when Kira’s feelings grow too real\, the rules of Olympus come crashing down. She flees\, Sonny follows\, and the truth is revealed in a swirl of heartbreak\, Pegasus wings\, and suspended time (Suspended in Time). Brought before Zeus\, Aphrodite\, Thetis\, and Hera\, Kira faces judgment until mercy wins out (Have You Never Been Mellow). In the end\, Zeus grants her the chance to return to Earth as a mortal\, and the gift of Xanadu is finally realized (Xanadu). \nAt FYPA\, we believe youth theatre isn’t just for grandparents with cameras. It’s for everyone. Our young performers\, who represent seven southeast Iowa school districts\, train\, rehearse\, and create with a level of professionalism that invites audiences of all ages to experience theatre that is polished\, imaginative\, and culturally alive. \nXanadu Jr. is the perfect match for our mission: \n• It’s campy\, clever\, and joyfully self-aware\, a parody and a tribute in the same breath. \n• It celebrates creativity\, inspiration\, and the courage to dream big\, which is the heartbeat of FYPA. \n• It gives young artists the chance to perform material that is both theatrically rich and musically iconic. \n• And it invites audiences to connect with 1980 in whatever way they carry it: \no Lived it? You’ll feel the nostalgia. \no Heard stories about it? You’ll get the myth and the magic. \no Think the era was ridiculous? This show lovingly agrees and winks at you the whole time. \nThis is children’s theatre elevated\, with bold design\, original art\, next level choreography\, professional production values\, and storytelling that resonates far beyond the age of the performers\, all brought to you by an all star team of musical theatre production veterans. \nThe original Broadway production of Xanadu was nominated for four Tony Awards\, including Best Musical in 2008. And the soundtrack is a cultural time capsule of pure pop electricity. \nThe original film featured seven Top 20 hits\, powered by the unmistakable sound of Jeff Lynne and Electric Light Orchestra (ELO) and the legendary voice of Olivia Newton John. Songs like Magic\, Evil Woman\, All Over the World\, and Xanadu remain instantly recognizable across generations. \nThis isn’t just a musical. It’s a neon soaked\, roller skating\, synth shimmering celebration of an era that refuses to fade… in leg warmers. \n>>>Purchase Tickets Here

SUMMARY:Film Screening: The Lunatic Farmer
DESCRIPTION:Free Film Screening + Talk-Back\nJoel Salatin: The Lunatic Farmer An Angel Studios Documentary \nMeet Joel Salatin\, the self-described Christian\, libertarian\, environmentalist\, capitalist\, and “lunatic farmer” who has become one of the most influential voices in regenerative agriculture. \nAt Polyface Farm in Virginia’s Shenandoah Valley\, Joel and his family raise animals and heal the land by mimicking nature’s own patterns. No industrial feedlots. No chemical shortcuts. Just cows\, pigs\, chickens\, and soil working together the way God designed them to. The farm feeds thousands of families\, restaurants\, and markets while restoring the land instead of depleting it. \nBut when state regulators threaten to shut him down for refusing industrial norms\, Joel digs in. Armed with humor\, conviction\, and a deep belief that we are called to steward creation\, he fights for the freedom to farm differently\, and for a food system that actually nourishes people and the planet. \nFunny\, inspiring\, and deeply practical\, The Lunatic Farmer is more than a documentary about one eccentric farmer. It’s a call to rethink how we grow food\, care for the earth\, and reclaim responsibility for what ends up on our tables.

SUMMARY:Film Screening: To Which We Belong
DESCRIPTION:Friday\, September 4\, 2026 | 7:00 PM\nFairfield Arts & Convention Center | 200 N. Main St.\, Fairfield\, IA\nFree and open to the public \nJoin us for a free screening of To Which We Belong\, presented by David Ford as part of his Regenerative Agriculture film series at the Fairfield Arts & Convention Center this summer. A community talkback will follow the film. \nTo Which We Belong is a documentary that follows farmers\, ranchers\, and ocean farmers around the world as they move away from conventional industrial practices that are no longer sustainable or profitable and adopt regenerative approaches instead. \nThe film shows how these land and sea stewards are using practices such as high-density rotational grazing\, no-till farming\, cover crops\, diverse crop rotations\, and regenerative ocean farming (growing seaweed and shellfish). Together\, these methods rebuild soil health\, increase organic matter\, improve water cycles\, and pull significant amounts of carbon out of the atmosphere and back into the ground. \nAt its core\, the film makes a simple but powerful case: the solutions to climate change\, declining soil fertility\, and environmental degradation may already be under our feet — and in the hands of the people who work the land and sea every day.

SUMMARY:Southeast Iowa Blues Society Presents: Fallin' for the Blues
DESCRIPTION:This is not an Artist Series performance and is excluded from 2026-2027 Season Passes and Packages.  \n\nPresented by the Southeast Iowa Blues Society \nGrammy-nominated bassist and vocalist Danielle Nicole brings her gutsy\, blues-soaked sound to Fairfield\, with special guest opener Matt Woods. Doors open at 6:00 PM with BBQ from Sweet N Saucy\, full bar available throughout the evening. \n6:00 PM — Doors Open with Sweet N Saucy BBQ\n7:00 PM — Matt Woods\n8:00 PM — Danielle Nicole Band \nDanielle Nicole\n“That girl gets down to the nitty gritty.” ~ Koko Taylor \nDanielle Nicole Schnebelen began music from the moment she was born. Musical influences from generations on both sides of her parent’s families ensured that a love of playing music would continue to be passed among her and her siblings. \nFans love her for her raw yet controlled vocals and her gutsy lyrics\, which act like a sucker punch on the often male-dominated blues scene. Critics love her for her obvious skill\, honed to a fine point and often garnering her critical acclaim and national awards. \nNicole’s distinctive\, inventive bass work—which resulted in her not only becoming the first woman to ever be nominated in the category of Instrumentalist – Bass in The Blues Foundation’s 2012 Blues Music Awards\, but also the first woman ever to receive the honor—is the product of years of intensive roadwork. \n\nAs a founding member of the “Heavy Blues” sibling band Trampled Under Foot\, she and her brothers took top honors at the International Blues Challenge in the US\, propelling them into Canada\, Scandinavia\, Europe\, UK and was featured on several Legendary Rhythm & Blues Cruises. In 2015 Nicole set out on her own with the release of “Wolf Den” recorded in New Orleans with Anders Osborne. \nNicole’s 2017 release of “Cry No More” ushered in not only a heavier sound and style differentiating Nicole’s already broadening voice and writing\, but also accrued a slew of accolades including a 2019 Grammy Nomination for Contemporary Blues Album. She has now added 5 Blues Music Awards and 3 Independent Blue Music Awards to her trophy case. \n6:00 PM – Doors Open with Sweet N Saucy BBQ \n7:00 PM – Matt Woods \n8:00 PM – Danielle Nicole Band \nMatt Woods\nMatt Woods is both a native of Iowa\, and a longstanding purveyor of its diverse music scene.  As a seasoned performer of many local\, regional and national venues\, Matt has developed a distinct style while staying true to his love of traditional American music.  Woods is well versed in the many shapes this music can take; from traditional delta\, hill country and urban electric blues\, to gospel\, country and folk music. \n  \n\n
