Church Basement Ladies March 21, 2010

A celebration of the church basement kitchen and the women who work there, this musical comedy features four distinct characters and their relationships as they organize the food and solve the problems of a rural Minnesota church about to undergo changes in 1964. From the elderly matriarch of the kitchen to the young bride-to-be learning the proper order of things, they stave off potential disasters, share and debate recipes, instruct the young, and keep the Pastor on due course while thoroughly enjoying, (and tolerating) each other as the true "Steel Magnolias" of the church. Funny and down to earth, audiences will recognize these ladies as they witness the church year unfold from below the house of God.
"Inspired by the books of Janet Letnes Marting and Suzann Nelson, including the best-seller Growing Up Lutheran. Written by Jim Stowell and Jessica Zuehlke. Music and Lyrics by Drew Jansen."
