There will also be a command performance on Saturday, September 10 at 2 p.m. at the historic mill in Terrace.  Both shows are $5.  To reserve seats for the Friday night show, call the LAT box office at (320) 808-3841.

ON THE AIR

On air this weekend, LAT will present an episode from The Realm of Terror, by Minneapolis playwright Richard Liedholm.

The Door in the Cellar finds five characters convened in a cellar to hear the last will and testament of a quirky but generous woman.  While the friends and relatives are lavished with the deceased woman’s wealth, they are also required to remain in the cellar while a boarded up, rusted door in the cellar is opened.

Listen in to the chaos that ensues. What is behind the door and how could the resulting actions take place?

The show is directed by Mike Roers and stars Claudia Bursch, Kip Sundlee, Bruce McKirdy, Virgil Linn, Lori McKirdy and Lars Markeson.  Daniel Roers provides the sound effects.
