Rise Up, O Men Circa ’21 Dinner Playhouse, Rock Island Wednesday, April 4
Rise Up, O Men is a new musical featuring the men of a small rural Lutheran church circa 1964 and everyone’s favorite church basement ladies. As these hard- working farmers discuss scrap lumber piles and the benefits of solder vs weld, they unintentionally disrupt the order of the kitchen. But that’s what happens when roosters are let in the hen house! Humorously portrayed, enjoy some light-hearted, folksy humor and witty songs, with sprinkles of sweetness that is the hot dish of this series.
