Sod House Theater presents a highly original, immersive, site-specific bluegrass music-infused adaptation of An Enemy of the People at Wilson Park Shelter, St. Cloud, MN, July 11-14. Ibsen’s An Enemy of the People examines how a community responds when the local doctor threatens to expose that the water source they rely on for tourism is contaminated. The play raises questions about how far a community will go to protect their town’s secret to keep tourism dollars coming and circumvent a path to financial ruin.
