This April, Theatre NDSU and the NDSU Challey School of Music proudly present 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘚𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘥 𝘰𝘧 𝘔𝘶𝘴𝘪𝘤, the iconic tale of love, hope, and resilience! The musical follows Maria, a young nun who is sent to the Von Trapp family to serve as governess for seven unruly children. While there, Maria teaches the children to sing and gradually captures the heart of Captain Von Trapp, only to have their world splintered by the invasion of the Nazis.
Based on the true story of the Von Trapp Family Singers, 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘚𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘥 𝘰𝘧 𝘔𝘶𝘴𝘪𝘤 reminds us that hope can be found and transformed into courage, and with heartfelt compassion and determination, every mountain can be climbed. Come experience this beloved musical and let your heart be filled with the sound of music!
Tickets are $20 for adults, $15 for seniors, and $10 for students (all ages, including children). Visit ndsu.showare.com or call the Box Office at 701-231-7969 to reserve your seats. All seating is general admission.

The Shark is Broken
2026-04-11 19:30 - 21:00, 2026-04-10 19:30 - 21:00 | Stage West Studio, 300 Sheyenne Street, West Fargo, North Dakota, 58078
A comedic, behind-the-scenes look into the making of Jaws written by Joseph Nixon and Ian Shaw.
The historic first summer blockbuster movie is being filmed – but no one working on the film would know it. Dive deep into the tumultuous, murky waters of the making of a major motion picture with dueling co-stars, unpredictable weather and a shark prop whose constant breakdowns are looking like an omen for the future of the movie. The short tempers and short circuits of Jaws stars Robert Shaw, Richard Dreyfuss, and Roy Scheider take center stage as they bond, argue, drink, gamble and pray for an end to the film shoot, not knowing it will change their lives forever.
The Shark is Broken contains depictions of alcohol and smoking, and includes some strong language and mild adult themes.
Performed at: Stage West Studio (300 Sheyenne St Suite 120, West Fargo, ND 58078). General Admission tickets; first-come, first-served seating.
April 10-12, 16-19, & 23-25 at 7:30pm
