It’ll charm your wool socks off!
(Augusta, MI) On June 2 the Barn Theatre opens its 64th season with the charming ice fishing musical GUYS ON ICE which will play through June 14.
GUYS ON ICE introduces us to long-time pals Marvin (played by Eric Parker) and Lloyd (played by Eric Petersen) in their ice shanty keeping warm with a mutual appreciation for good bait, cold beer and the Green Bay Packers as they sing about life, love and the one that got away. Awaiting his moment of glory on a cable TV fishing show, Marvin shares secrets of his life on “da’ lake” with Lloyd who ponders a marital tension over his adamant desire that he and his wife spend their anniversary at a Packers football game. The third character, Ernie “da Moocher,” (played by Steven Lee Burright) spends the show yearning for what the two have (in this case, mainly their Leinenkugel Beer).
