What: "Mythos: Journey Toward What End?" Featuring theatrical mime artist Rick Wamer with the pyrotechnic troupe Flam Chen, the Japanese drumming group Odaiko Sonora and dancers from the University of Arizona School of Dance.

When: 7:30 tonight and 1:30 p.m. Sunday at the Stevie Eller Dance Theatre at 1737 E. University Blvd. on the University of Arizona campus.

Cost: $13 in advance, with discounts available at Antigone Books, or $15 the day of the show. 990-7425.

Why: Wamer is directing this piece featuring more than 35 performers — it's his master thesis. It includes video, aerial ballet, circus silks and walking globes. Wamer studied with the late Marcel Marceau, a master in the art of mime.

What: "The True Story of Cinderella" — The University of Arizona School of Music presents this comic oratorio.

When: 7:30 p.m. next Friday at Crowder Hall, southeast corner of North Park Avenue and East Speedway.

Cost: Admission is $10, $5 for students. 621-2998.

Why: Classic fairy tale is presented — sans costumes and sets — by a dozen singers, a narrator and pianist. The cast includes UA graduate and undergraduate students, and faculty members John Brobeck, Bruce Chamberlain, Lynnel Joy Jenkins and Elizabeth Schauer.

What: Old Pueblo Playwrights' 17th Annual New Play Festival, featuring seven plays by local authors.

When: 7:30 p.m. today, 2:30 and 7:30 p.m. Saturday at the Temple of Music and Art's Cabaret Theater, 330 S. Scott Ave.

Cost: $5 per performance, $10 for a Festival Pass for all performances. 623-8234.

Why: Tucson's loaded with talented writers. The plays are given a staged reading, and the audience is asked to discuss the works at the end. It's a fun and fascinating way to get involved with the creative process — and perhaps hear a playwright's work before it becomes famous.
