Why not
treat yourself or somebody special? Join
Gary Block Tours on Wednesday, April 29th as we travel to Sidekick
Theater in Bloomington. Enjoy a
delicious meal and comedy production in a great atmosphere. We’ll depart from the northeast Little Falls
Walmart parking lot at 9:00 a.m. We will start our experience in one of the
beautiful dining rooms where the buffet luncheon features creamy chicken
breast, with roasted red potatoes, glazed carrots, coleslaw, dinner rolls,
assorted desserts, coffee, hot tea and water.
(Special dietary meals available by request at the time you sign up). Following our delicious lunch, it's over to
the theater to enjoy “Birthday Candles”.
The ingredients for the cake are simple: eggs, butter, sugar, salt. Look closer, tough, and you’ll see the
essence of life itself! Every year,
Ernestine bakes a cake and celebrates with her family on her birthday – a
delicious ritual that unfolds on stage across 90 years of birthdays. We meet Ernestine and the people who sweeten
her life every year on this day as she grows from 17 to 107 years old. Through glimpses of Ernestine’s life as the
years go by, “Birthday Candles” tenderly explores motherhood, family, love,
loss and finding your place in the universe.
This charming new production, recently on Broadway, will warm your soul.
What a super way to spend a Thursday in April.
After the show we’ll make a stop at Culvers in Maple Grove, where the
staff will deliver the “Flavor of the Day” on-board the bus. We’ll be returning
to Little Falls around 6:25 p.m. Give us
a call and sign up today.
