This week in MN theater you might say there’s “much ado” from shakespeare to giant fruit we can find a show for you.

You don’t need to be a detective. Why it’s elementary, don’t you see? There’s a whole new world of theater here, and we promise it’s not all Disney.

But I can tell you're not convinced. You think “when pigs fly i’ll believe.” Well, we’ve got a flying nanny and quite  “some pig” up our sleeve.

So let go of your pride (unless you’re off to christopher street). Our fine art is no illusion. All you need is to grab a seat.

Don’t make me drag you to Aunt Charlie’s cause I’ll bug you til you go, or perhaps the bard is more your style, in which case, twelfth night is quite a show.

Or are you parched for something new, cause you think shakespeare’s overplayed. Well, we’ve got plenty to quench your thirst like H20 and Lemonade.

Are you more of a sportz fan? Don’t fret, you won’t be benched. There’s Insult tennis and Damn Yankees, if you’ll pardon my french.

Speaking of which, if you crave culture, we’ve got quite a country roll call from Arabia, France and Dublin we'll take care of you once and for all

But perhaps you’re a diehard patriot? Well, you’ve got no reason for strife for we’ve got Iowa and texas culture, federal agents and Mississippi life.

Maybe you’re looking to learn something new? Check out technical tools of the trade, or if you’re a bit too young, Miss. Torrie has got you made.

We also tackle the hard topics like gun violence thanks to Gardley Or stories about love from good old Tennessee.

But no list would be complete without praising our lord big G, so here’s Juno and the Paycock and Choir Boy for you to see.

Now don’t get all upset if you’re not that into plays there’s Flamenco, Dance lab, Radio, Cabaret's and Cabaraves.

There’s something here for everyone, even soap fans will agree, we’ve got everything you need, there’s even poetry.

So come on down and see us; your attendance would make us grin. Hurry and grab a seat cause the shows are about to begin!
