For almost three decades, Ye Olde Opera House has been presenting summer musicals in Spring Grove, MN. “Ye Olde Gray Barn” has been the unique venue for these theatrical escapades; from “Oliver,” to “Annie,” and “Little Abner,” to “Oklahoma,” this summer tradition is not to be missed. July of 2009 will be no different, with five nights of productions of “Lucky Stiff” – a musical theatrical production from the team of Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty, based on a book by Michael Butterworth.
This musical tells the tale of an unassuming shoe salesman who’s life takes a dramatic turn when he learns he is about to receive a major inheritance – under one rather odd cicrumstance that involves a trip to Monte Carlo, and a dead Uncle that must go along!
Ye Olde Opera House presents “LUCKY STIFF” outdoors at Ye Olde Gray Barn, just east of Spring grove July 15-19, 2009. The cast will include such regional favorites as David Storlie, Mark Schroeder, Bill Fried, Jacob Grippen, Tyler Engen, Chelsea McManimon-Moe, Rachel Grippen, Sarah Holland, Sara Kroshus, Jen Solberg, and Alisha Solum.
The unique setting offers theatre goers a quintessential midwestern summer experience, with dinner and refreshments available “on the green” two hours before the show. Don’t miss your chance to enjoy a great night of theatre in one of the midwest’s most unique venues!
thanks for the great coverage!
