From the Creators of 'Church Basement Ladies', THE LOONEY LUTHERANS Comes to Maplewood Area Historical Society
In July, the Maplewood Area Historical Society (MAHS) brings theatrical entertainment with a side of hotdish to the Bruentrup Heritage Farm. MAHS will present the family-friendly comedy, THE LOONEY LUTHERANS in "Livin' La Vida Lutheran," a show cooked up by the creators of the popular hit musical CHURCH BASEMENT LADIES.
THE LOONEY LUTHERANS is about three wacky gals who promote their new (fictional) cookbook with the use of music, comedy, audience interaction and a bit of wisdom for living a healthy life, "the Lutheran way!" The variety show features songs and inspired improvisation in an evening of hilarious entertainment that appeals to all ages.
Audiences should bring an appetite because Bruentrup chef Mickey Michlitsch will offer Minnesota-inspired comfort foods in a pre-show picnic. The actresses of THE LOONEY LUTHERANS will interact with the diners; historical exhibits will be open for viewing, and people will be encouraged to browse the grounds before stepping into the barn to watch the 75-minute show.
"This is the kind of event we'd like to offer annually," says Bob Jensen, president of the MAHS, "because it makes the Farm come alive."
THE LOONEY LUTHERANS will be performed July 14-16, 21-23 at the Bruentrup Heritage Farm. Show ticket and picnic dinner options available. Free parking and handicap accessible. For reservations, visit www.maplewoodhistoricalsociety.org.
