St. Patrick's Day in St. Paul

by Meredith

St. Patrick's Day in St. Paul is a long standing tradition this Minnesota girl has never been able to attend because of school or work. But not this year - it's on a Saturday and they are predicting a high of 77 for the 17th! I'm excited for the parade, green beer and enjoying the wonderful weather.

End of the Rainbow

by Meredith

This week I saw End of the Rainbow  at the Guthrie in Minneapolis. The Guthrie's president has  connections that allow our theater to once and awhile get a Broadway musical before it goes live in New York - this is one of them!  Set in 1968, the story is based on actress Judy Garland's last six months of life and her last performance run in London. It featured many of her signature songs. Great performance Tracie Bennett.
