SPECIAL EVENT
Beer, Brats and Bribery
What’s
better than sitting in the shade of the modern marvel that is the
Guthrie Theater while enjoying a picturesque view of the mighty
Mississip, a juicy gourmet brat and an ice cold Summit beer? Not
say I! The last patio party I went to at the Guthrie was a breezy and
fun experience that I’d happily repeat, and if you’re into tasty food
and amazing entertainment (and I know you are), then this is your
ultimate Thursday night destination. For a mere $25 you’ll get not only
brats and beer, but also tickets to The Government Inspector, a spirited and witty comedy about a case of mistaken identity in a small Russian town, written by Jeffrey Hatcher (The Falls and Tuesdays with Morrie).
To score this sweet deal call the Guthrie’s box office at 612-377-2224 and quote price code "AV".

5:30pm Patio Party, 7:30pm Play, The Guthrie, 818 2nd Avenue S, Minneapolis, $25
READINGS
Anthony Bukoski: North of Port
While the Twin Cities may be somewhat far removed from the rock-lined shores of Lake Superior,
we’re still close enough to consider it part of 
as Minnesotans. I know I’ve made many memories that are wrapped around
the sounds, smells, and experiences I’ve had "up north". Writer Anthony
Bukoski, while on the Northern Wisconsin side of the shoreline, weaves
his tales with similar memories in mind. North of the Port
is a touching collection of twelve short stories dealing with Polish
immigrant families in the mid-20th century, with most of them set in
Bukoski’s home town of Superior, Wisconsin. North of the Port is the author’s fifth book, and the most recent in his Superior-based storytelling legacy that dates back to 1974.
