This play digs deep into the life of his

tortured soul in a show filled with ro-

mance and mystery, thrills and excite-

ment. Enjoy beautiful music and a

delicious meal at the Fireside Theatre.

In 1964 Dick and Betty Klopcic built a pyramid-shaped restaurant with seating for 120 diners. People drove for miles every night to experience this unique new restaurant. 1992 and 1993 the entire complex was upgraded to welcome several thousand guests each week.

Each of our trips to the Fireside include stops at the Jones Dairy Farm and Pine Cone Bakery (as time permits). Join us for a trip to a Wisconsin staple!

Newsies is the rousing tale of Jack Kelly,

a charismatic newsboy and leader of a

ragged band of teenaged newsies, who

dreams only of a better life from the

hardship of the streets. High energy ,

non-stop thrills and amazing music

makes this a don’t miss show.

Senior class of 1959, hot-rodding "Burger

Palace Boys" and their gum-snapping, hip-

shaking "Pink Ladies" are the look and

sound of the 1950s. Head "greaser" Danny

Zuko and new (good) girl Sandy Dum-

browski try to relive the high romance of

their "Summer Nights" as the rest of the

gang sings and dances its way through. A Second Helping picks up the story in

1969 with the world changing. As Vietnam

War protests swell and women everywhere

demand equal pay for equal work, the

finely tuned ladies running the church

basement kitchen face changes of their

own. "You'll laugh until your side dish

hurts" with their hilarious, down-to-earth

charm.

Buddy, a young orphan, mistakenly crawls

into Santa’s bag of gifts and is transported

to the North Pole. The would-be elf is

raised, unaware that he is actually a hu-

man, until his enormous size and poor toy-

making abilities cause him to face the

truth. With Santa’s permission, Buddy em-

barks on a journey to New York City to find

his birth father and discover his true identi-

ty. Buddy is determined to win over his

new family and help New York remember

the true spirit of Christmas.

The show’s host couple enters heaven, suspecting their son pulled

the plug… to get his hands on Dad’s vintage Corvette. They don’t

seem to mind. Instead, the couple fondly remembers Pelican Roost,

an active, full-service retirement community.

Grab your sense of adventure and board the bus for a day of

mystery!

Lindsay Spencer, a free-spirited, single woman in her late twenties,

returns to her parents' apartment after she's in a car accident that

her father, Charles, feels guilty of causing. Florence learns that her

husband has invited Lindsay to live with them while she recuperates

from the accident. The side-splitting conflicts of lifestyle not only

bring a greater understanding between mother and daughter, but

also lead to a hilarious conclusion.
