Tickets for "The Wolf of Walmart" are on sale now at (612) 332-6620 or http://theatre.bravenewworkshop.com/ "The Wolf of Walmart" runs through November 1.
"This show asks the question, 'What if Walmart was in charge of everything?' But then we realized they kind of already are," says BNW artistic director Caleb McEwen. "If you've ever walked in a Walmart and wondered how they could possibly be the largest company in the world, then this is the show for you."
"The Wolf of Walmart" features BNW cast members Lauren Anderson, Matt Erkel, Bobby Gardner, Tom Reed, and Taj Ruler. The show is directed by Caleb and Katy McEwen. Andy Hilbrands provides additional writing. Peter Guertin returns as music director, and Matthew Vichlach will provide technical direction.
