Annie's Swedish Coffee Parties

Annie was the longest resident at Scandia's Gammelgarden - "small farm." We celebrate her tradition of a coffee party on the first three Saturdays in December. A 3-course Swedish coffee party is a perfect way to celebrate birthdays, Red Hat outings, a family get-together, or a special treat for yourself and a friend!

The three courses of food (along with your coffee) will include: Cardamom bread/butter, fruit-filled coffee cakes, sliced cheese and apples, rice pudding, and assorted Swedish Jul cookies. There will be Swedish Jul traditions and stories shared between courses.

Annie

It's a goose-bump-inducing, gorgeous production that fills the stage and the hearts of everyone who watches it. Times are tough, spirits are low, and the world is in dire need of hope. Enter, stage left: a delightful underdog - a cute, yet mischievously feisty little girl. She takes on the world and, with an equal share of moxie and music, unlocks hearts and changes lives through kindness, love, and spirit.

Best enjoyed by all ages

Angels & Madams

In 1881, residents of St. Paul's fashionable Irvine Park neighborhood formed a committee to rid their district of vice. St. Paul's not-so-hidden red-light district was a source of concern for residents, reformers and city officials alike.

This program uses newspaper accounts and court records to explore the secrets of the capital city. Were madams like Nina Clifford and Maggie Morse simply running businesses or, as reformers claimed, ruining lives and the soul of a city?

This program is intended for ages 18 and up and is offered at 7 and 8:30 pm.

Anastasia

The romantic and adventure-filled new musical ANASTASIA is at home in Minneapolis at last! This dazzling show will transport you from the twilight of the Russian Empire to the euphoria of Paris in the 1920s, as a brave young woman sets out on a journey to discover the mystery of her past.
