Join us in 2021!
In these trying times of the coronavirus pandemic, we have made the decision to postpone our entire 2020 season and move it ahead a year to 2021, pending a vaccine. This decision is for your safety, for our actors’ safety and to be careful not to spread this deadly virus.
We are looking ahead to 2021 for our ‘start-back-up.’ If all goes as planned, Anything Goes will be performed March 18, 19, 20, 25, 26, and 27 – evening shows on Thursdays and Fridays with matinees on Saturdays. Your 2020 tickets will, of course, be honored at these productions. The Crucible will be performed in October and A Christmas Story in December, 2021. The exact dates of these productions will be announced at the beginning of next year.
We are very excited to add a Summer show to our 2021 theater season. For the Brainerd sesquicentennial, we have hired playwright Roger Nieboer (of Baby Face fame) and local composer Don Gorham to write a humorous, musical, historical play based on the history of Paul Bunyan. The show: Paul Bunyan: The Myth, The Legend, The Musical will be performed in the air-conditioned Tornstrom Auditorium in June of 2021.
