Red, White and Tuna
Through August 27, 2010
Festival Theatre, 210 North Washington St., St. Croix Falls, WI
In this third edition of the Greater Tuna series, an impending high school reunion brings out the best – and more often the worst – in the citizens of Tuna. Who will be crowned the reunion queen? Nasty spitfire talk among the competitors, whose extravagant opinions are based on rumor and suspicion, stirs up comedic moments that get you chuckling before you realize what's happened.

Proof

This Pulitzer Prize (2001) and Tony Award-winning (2001) play crackles with subtle wit while tackling large questions.

Is He Dead
September 30 – October 24, 2010
Festival Theatre, 210 North Washington St., St. Croix Falls, WI
Richly intermingling elements of burlesque, farce, and social satire with a wry look at the world market in art, Is He Dead centers on a group of poor artists in Barbizon, France, who stage the death of a friend to drive up the price of his paintings. A highly entertaining comedy that was written in 1898 by Mark Twain while living in Vienna, Is He Dead shows its author's superb gift for humor operating at its most energetic. The playscript of Is He Dead is based on a manuscript found amongst the Mark Twain Papers and adapted for the stage by David Ives from 2005 to 2007. Call 888-887-6002 or visit www.festivaltheatre.org
