New Minowa Players children’s show opens Thursday

By Roz Weis,

New Mionwa Player cast members are ready for audiences at their upcoming children’s show “Two Stories About the Gold Bucksin Whincher”.

The show will be performed on Oct. 19, 20 and 21 at 7 p.m., and Oct. 22 at 2 p.m. at the NMP Theatre on Mill Street in Decorah.

Fourteen children, ages 7-12, are directed by Rick Scheffert who wrote the original script for this show, based on a Carl Sandburg story. The original music and lyrics were written by Sheryl Scheffert, who also is the musical director.

The musical production is about a magical object, the gold buckskin whincher, and the big changes happening in the lives of the people who find it because of its magical powers.

The children bringing this story to life have also painted their own set and created artwork included on the poster promoting the show. These talented children include Aubriana Molokken, Marlee Klimesh-Oblander, Lorenzo Fernande, Clara Garcia-Prats, Campbell Tripp, Elizabeth Jirak, Charlotte Yu, Archie Weber, Justice Nelson, Sanna Dyer, Abby Rocksvold, Louis Weber, Yannalexi De La Garza, and Emmet Olson.

Tickets are $15 for adults and $5 for children 12 and under. Get your tickets now at Oneota Community Food Co-op and online at www.newminowaplayers.ludus.com
