Circle Theatre Presents ESCANABA IN DA MOONLIGHT, 2/19-3/13
The Circle Theatre will be starting the New Year with the regional premier of the comedy Escanaba In Da Moonlight. Directed by Kevin Ehrhart, Escanaba will be staged in the lower level of Central Presbyterian Church, running now through Saturday, March 13th. Doors open at 6:30PM with dinner served at 7:00pm and performances starting at 8:00PM. The show runs Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings.
Escanaba In Da Moonlight is a twisted comedy about five Yoopers - residents of Michigan's Upper Peninsula - and their escapades at a ramshackle deer camp on the eve of the Opening Day of the 1989 hunting season by actor Jeff Daniels. For nearly three quarters of a century, Soady men have trekked to their little "home away from home" north of Escanaba - the heart and soul of the U. P. - to drink, cause a little bit of trouble, and bag bucks. But in the words of the Patriarch Albert, 'Dat year camp was as tense as a moose's butt durin' fly season. At 35, Rueben Soady is in danger of becoming the oldest member in the history of the family never to bag a buck. The show features the talents of Cullen Chollett, Chris Wiig, Don Harris and David Sindelar.
Tickets for dinner and show are $23 and show-only tickets are $13. The entrees for this production will include Ham and scalloped potatoes and Crusted Chicken Breast and Macaroni and Cheese. The Circle Theater is located in the lower level of Central Presbyterian church, 726 So. 55th St. (Corner of 55th and Leavenworth).
