Church Basement Ladies: Rise Up O Men

Description

Let’s hear it for the boys! Fans of the musical comedy series Church Basement Ladies will finally get to know more about the men of East Cornucopia Lutheran Church as The Arts Council presents Rise Up O Men. This sidesplitting, uplifting peek into the lives of the rural Norwegian Lutherans with whom audiences fell in love in 2005 is the sixth chapter of the story begun by the original Church Basement Ladies. The performance will be at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday, February 21, at the Performing Arts Center of Wisconsin Rapids. Tickets are $43. As the ladies busy themselves with preparations for their church’s participation in the town’s 1964 Centennial Celebration, we get to see their comings and goings from the eyes of the menfolk, who have their own problems to solve. Their camaraderie unites them as they deal with furnace salesmen, looming retirement, rival Protestant denominations, the Pastor’s bad jokes, and Arlene’s even-worse cooking. Don’t miss this hilarious performance—tickets are going quickly, so get yours now through The Arts Council’s web site 24/7 at www.SavorTheArts.org.
