This fun comedy begins with a theater-loving narrator playing his favorite cast recording. As the record spins, a 1920s musical springs to life in his apartment. The show-within-a-show follows a wedding disrupted by gangsters, mistaken identities and a tipsy chaperone. Hilarious and heartfelt, it’s both a loving parody and a tribute to the magic of classic musicals.

Join Norte at Mud, Sweat, and Beers for the fun and exciting Root Beer Race! The race is a short, fun-filled course of approximately a 1/4 mile.

Root Beer entrants will be grouped by boys and girls in the following categories:
* 6 and Under
