The return of a beloved Latté Da tradition. “Hands down, the most emotionally moving Christmas show I’ve ever seen” (TheaterMania). ALL IS CALM brings founding artistic director Peter Rothstein home to direct this unforgettable, music-driven act of remembrance—one that has moved audiences for almost two decades with its quiet power and authenticity. On a cold Christmas Eve along the Western Front, as soldiers sat on opposite sides of the battlefield, something extraordinary happened. The guns fell silent. Emerging into no-man’s-land, enemies met not with violence, but with song. Drawn from letters, diaries and firsthand accounts, this profoundly moving piece is told through stirring a cappella harmonies that illuminate a fleeting moment of shared humanity in the midst of war. In a world that feels increasingly polarized and entrenched, this story of soldiers stepping out of their trenches to sing together offers not naïve sentimentality, but radical empathy and an invitation to rediscover the light that can emerge even in the darkest of times. * Fee includes coach transportation, lunch at The Local (choice of Pub Cheeseburger, The Rachel, or Macaroni and Cheese, served with salad, fries, beverage, and dessert) and theater ticket. * 10:30 AM Depart Northrop Parking Lot * 6:30 PM Approximate return * No refunds after October 15 * Fee: $145

A Minnesota Christmas Comedy! Gorgeous soap opera star Colin Avery returns to his Minnesota roots and takes over Christmas Lake Community Theater after his father dies. Colin's new wife Tess – a city girl with zero tolerance for mosquitoes – comes along for the ride only to find the theater on the verge of bankruptcy. After losing the rights to It’s a Wonderful Life and his entire cast due to a freak snow storm, Colin races to come up with another play. With piano tuner and Little House on the Prairie fanatic, Neil Gunderson, and lizard-loving massage therapist, Martha Knutson, as the only cast members, hilarity ensues as this unlikely bunch scramble to save the theater. When his attempt at creating an original play fails miserably, Colin decides to stage an episode of his soap opera As Time Ticks By to appeal to the theater's chief benefactor, Mrs. Burlington, a big fan of Colin and the show. Not to be swayed, Mrs. Burlington convinces Colin to cast her in the show and runs off to find the perfect dress. Meanwhile, Martha's pet lizard goes missing and she comforts herself by eating too much Tater Tot Hotdish, Neil prepares for the iconic role of Victor of Icon of Icon Enterprises by shoving a piece of onion in his nose and painting on a mustache with permanent marker. Tess is forced to endure a sexy maid outfit and cannot nail down her Colombian accent, and Mrs. Burlington arrives in a gaudy dress flaunting a giant hairy mole the size of Canada. The "curtain" rises on the fictional soap opera town of Sunrise Valley and more chaos ensues including, but not limited to: a lost contact, forgotten lines, evil twins (one of whom is buried alive), a free-running lizard, lights going out, a bloody nose and Neil ripping off his shirt to reveal a less-than-trim physique.
