The Minutes
April 25, 2025 - May 18, 2025
by Tracy Letts
Directed by Rhonda Hallquist
This scathing Pulitzer Prize-nominated comedy unravels a web of secrets, power struggles, and dark truths lurking beneath the surface of everyday life. From the author of August: Osage County, Tracy Letts infuses this story with his signature wit delivering moments of uproarious humor as a cast of very recognizable city council members let their idiosyncrasies fly. Unable to locate the minutes from the previous meeting, or move beyond their pet projects, the city council devolves into ridiculously reenacting their town history for their newest member who is full of questions and doubts about his new role. With razor-sharp wit,unflinching honesty, and a healthy dose of comedy, The Minutes is a gripping exploration of the complexities of power and the fragility of democracy. Don’t miss your chance to witness this explosive drama and side-splitting comedy that has captivated audiences and critics alike. “Astonishing... a pitch black comedy about the current state of American politics.” – Chicago Sun-Times “The Minutes is also quite funny, silly even…But the questions Letts poses – what are you willing to do, what are you willing to ignore, what are you willing to forget to preserve your ‘cocoon of comfort’? – are provocative. And perennial.” – Daily Herald The Minutes by Tracy Letts runs April 25th through May 18th, 2025. Showings Friday and Saturday at 7:30pm, Sundays at 3:00pm. Sundays at 3:00 pm. Directed by Rhonda Hallquist and starring Dawson Woolridge, Cliff Madison, David Alexander Johnston, and more. Tickets start at $25.00.
