If you run quickly, you still have an outside chance to see Mary Teutsch in the Farmer's Alley Theatre production of Parade. There are shows at 8 p.m. Friday and Saturday, June 25 and 26, and one more at 2 p.m. on Sunday, June 27. (At this writing, the evening shows are shown as sold out on the Farmer's Alley website, but give the box office a call at 343-2727. You never know.) As Mark Wedel wrote in the Gazette, "It’s not the usual light musical fare. It’s the true story of a Jewish Yankee who gets lynched for the murder of a girl in 1913 Georgia. With music by Jason Robert Brown and a book by Alfred Uhry ('Driving Miss Daisy'), the 1998 musical lasted on Broadway for a couple of months, though it did win best book and best score Tony Awards." All who are missing the Barn Theatre this summer will also have a chance to see perennial favorite Scott Burkell. Tickets are $25, $23 for students and seniors.
Additional notes of interest from Thursday's Gazette involve rising musical stars from Gull Lake. Check out stories about Colin Kellogg and Ryan Etzcorn!
