The Lied Center for Performing Arts presents the dance troupe Momix performing "Botanica" at 7:30 p.m. April 10.

Using a mix of dance, music, costumes, huge puppets, projected imagery and larger-than-life props, Momix transports the audience to a fantasy world of surreal images in the "Botanica" performance. The production includes the work of Michael Curry, designer for Disney's Broadway musical "The Lion King."

A pre-show talk, scheduled one half hour before the performance, will be led by Susan Levine, associate professor of dance. The talk, free to ticket holders, is in the Lied Center's Steinhart Room.

Tickets, starting at $34 for adults and $17 for youth, are available at http://www.liedcenter.org, 402-472-4747 and at the Lied box office.
