WHOOSH! The Civil War Mythology of Michael Hickey and His Perilous Precipitation Over St. Anthony Falls

August 19, 2023 @ 7:30 pm

$10

Lively one-man play covers multiple themes and topics of Minnesota history

Solo artist Andrew Erskine Wheeler in a one-man play, directed by Allison Vincent.

Wheeler weaves an emotional gripping ghost tale using Minnesota State Capital art, song, and storytelling to recount his Irish immigrant ancestor’s intersectional history with St. Anthony Falls and Minneapolis, known respectively as OWamniyomni and Gakaabikaang in Dakota and Anishinaabe.  The play won two GoldenLanyard Awards at the 2022 Fringe Festival.

Irish Folk musicians, The Lost Forty featuring Brian Miller and Danny Diamond, will accompany the performance. Doors open at 7 pm.  A 30-minute talk back session with Wheeler will follow the performance.

Admission is $10.
