Hysterical - Any of you seen Escanaba in da Moonlight?
Our local theater group, Cookeville Drama Center's Backstage Players, produced Escanaba in da Moonlight last year (its about yoopers at deer camp) and did an awesome job. In fact, they were specially invited to show it at the American Association of Community Theatre 2007 National Festival and came back with several awards.
My husband and I along with several friends went, and we were just about rolling on the floor laughing. If it comes your way, definitely go! Here's a summary of the storyline, but believe me you just can't summarize it - you just have to go and enjoy it.
"When the Soady clan reunites for the opening day of deer season at the family's Upper Peninsula camp, thirty-five-year-old Reuben Soady brings with him the infamous reputation of being the oldest Soady in the history of the Soadys never to bag a buck. In a hunting story to beat all hunting stories, ESCANABA IN DA MOONLIGHT spins a hilarious tale of humor, horror and heart as Reuben goes to any and all lengths to remove his name from the wrong end of the family record book."
