You don't need to book a flight to New York or drive down to the Twin Cities to experience world-class musical theatre. As it turns out, incredible art is thriving right here in our own backyard.
I attended opening night of Stephen Sondheim's classical musical Into The Woods at the Pequot Lakes High School Theatre, put on by the Greater Lakes Area Performing Arts (GLAPA). To say I was blown away is an understatement — the production was highly entertaining, and the local actors brought an unbelievable amount of talent to the stage!
Growing up, we went to many plays and musicals at Central Lakes College Performing Arts Center in Brainerd each Summer. I had no idea until my mom heard about the Into The Woods musical that I had access to the arts in my small town of Pequot Lakes as well.
If you missed opening night, don't worry! There are still plenty of opportunities to catch this magical fairy-tale mashup. GLAPA has a six-performance run scheduled, giving you ample time to grab tickets:
Evening shows (7 pm): July 17, 18, 24, and 25
Matinee shoes (2pm): July 19 and 26
Location: Pequot Lakes High School Auditorium, 30805 Olson Street, Pequot Lakes, MN 56472
