The Four Seasons Island Resort and Let Me Be Frank Productions Presents: “The Wake of Johnny Blood” โ November 4th & 5th, 2022.
Johnny Blood was a polarizing figure of Green Bay Packer lore. We take you back to a train ride to Los Angeles in 1929. When one of his gal-pals parked on the railroad track so Blood wouldnโt miss the train, is Johnny dead or just dead drunk? Curly does a quickie funeral to get back on the track. Music from the 1950s.
Diamonds and Gold and Festival Foods present Let Me Be Frank Productions’ all-new comedy musical, โThe Manitowoc Munsters,โ September 16th through October 8th at the Meyer Theatre.
Remember โThe Munstersโ TV show? Well, theyโre actually from Manitowoc. Herman, Lily, Marilyn, Grandpa, and Eddie Munster receive a letter letting them know their long-lost relative, Ana Munster from Transylvania, will be coming to live with them in the great state of Wisconsin. Upon arrival, Ana meets Paul, a local Fuller Brush salesman who quickly sets his sights on wooing the new girl. While Anaโs arrival seems harmless at first, she may have some ulterior motives for her stay at the Munster household. With the help of Paul, Ana crafts a plan to unearth some hidden money on the property. Why does Ana need the money, and will her plan work to get some secrets out of the Munster family? Youโll have to see in our brand-new show!
“The Manitowoc Munsters” opens Friday, September 16th, with a benefit show for NEWCAP inc. NEWCAPโs mission for half a century has been to move people from poverty to opportunities and economic security, while enhancing community development.
