History Theatre at Home

 

 

While History Theatre stage is dark, our rehearsals are on hold and our theatre seats are empty, we want to stay connected to YOU, our loyal audience! Over these 42 years, History Theatre has had the privilege to tell stories that matter. Please join us from the comforts of your home and let's keep our community engaged through creative, fun and thoughtful connections.

To that end, we are releasing our NEW History Theatre at Home programming. We will be streaming, in limited release, curated gems from History Theatre archives and sharing behind-the-scenes secrets and creative conversations with Spilling the HT: Real People, Real Talk.

The Root Beer Lady

A Reading of a New Play
Written and performed by Kim Schultz  
Directed by Laurie Flanigan Hegge
Streaming May 3-9
The story of the indomitable Dorothy Molter, the last legal non-indigenous resident of the Boundary Waters, presented by playwright and performer Kim Schultz. Her solo performance reflects on the beauty and hardships of Molter’s solitary yet satisfying life and pushes back against the premise that her time in the North Woods made her the “Loneliest Woman in America,” as the Saturday Evening Post claimed in 1952. Funny. Smart. Passionate. Learn more

Please consider buying a ticket for everyone viewing in the room. We hope to cover our costs, pay our artists during this crisis and stay connected to YOU, our loyal audience.
