SUMMARY:Hungry Like the Wolf
DESCRIPTION:Playwright Sandra Struthers delivers a thought-provoking new comedy that dives into the critical\, ongoing fight for labor rights and gender equity. The production launches from the groundbreaking history of the Willmar Eight\, the women who led the first American bank strike right here in Minnesota.   \nThis dynamic piece uses this historical foundation to explore related themes\, including the subsequent ’80s film\, McCarthyism\, and the political life of director Lee Grant. It is an unforgettable blend of history\, humor\, and essential social commentary\, all punctuated by an infectious ’80s energy and a fierce Duran Duran obsession.  \nThe runtime is about 95 minutes with no intermission.  \nContent Warnings/Age Recommendations\nThis performance contains workplace harassment\, discussion of sexual assault and violence\, as well as strong language. Recommended for ages 13 and older. \nThemes\nThe real-life Willmar 8 were standing up against a powerful employer\, in order to change their world for the better. When they began picketing\, it was December of 1977 and the windchill was -70 degrees F. Whether or not they reached their goal\, they understood that their efforts could inspire others as well. Later in life\, one of them was asked what she wanted her legacy to be. Her answer was: “That I tried.” If you had a chance to speak with the Willmar 8\, what would you say? \nAccessibility\nMany performance venues offer accessibility accommodations such as wheelchair seating\, assistive listening\, sensory ear plugs\, ASL interpretation\, open captioning\, or audio description\, among other options. These accommodations are specific to each event\, and may not be available everywhere. When registering with us\, please let us know what accommodations you need and we will follow up with you! \nTransportation\nIf you do not have access to a ride\, call Project Success and we can provide transportation for you.

Please let us know if you need childcare when you make your reservation. \nAdditional Media\nA documentary was made about the strike by Lee Grant\, who is also featured in the show. Here is a short trailer\, and it gives a glimpse into the community’s views on the strike.

SUMMARY:Whoosh!
DESCRIPTION:Uncover the rich history of Minnesota through Whoosh!\, a lively and deeply moving ghost tale.
