By: A.A. Cristi Aug. 17, 2016
HCCT opens its 2016-17 season in September with the hilarious musical comedy Don't Hug Me, (a love story with singin' and stuff) book and lyrics by Phil Olson, music by Paul Olson.
Taking place in frigid Bunyan Bay, Minnesota, cantankerous bar owner, Gunner, wants to move to Florida. Clara, his wife, wants to stay, Bernice, the waitress, wants to pursue a singing career, and her fiancé, Kanute, wants her to stay home. When a fast-talking salesman promises to bring romance into their lives through the 'magic' of karaoke, all heck breaks loose!
The show will run from September 15 - 25, Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30 PM, Sunday matinees at 2:15 PM.
Admission is $25 for adults and $12 for students with a valid ID. Reservations can be made by calling (830) 798-8944, online at www.theHCCT.org, or at the box office (12:00 noon to 4:00 PM, Monday through Friday) beginning September 5 for HCCT season subscribers and September 8 for the general public.
