AWAY IN THE BASEMENT HEADING TO THE FARGO THEATRE

The Church Basement Ladies’ musical continues to delight and serve up a hearty helping of comedy from coast-to-coast. This time, the hilarious antics and charm are sewn into a Christmas setting. Wrapped with sketch comedy, Away In The Basement: A Church Basement Ladies Christmas, is the third installment of the highly successful production originally based on Growing Up Lutheran by Janet Letnes Martin and Suzann Nelson.

Away in the Basement will be performed live Friday, November 25, 2 p.m. and 7 p.m.; Saturday, November 26, 2 p.m. and 7 p.m.; Sunday, November 27, 2 p.m. in Fargo, N.D., at the historic Fargo Theatre.

Reserved seating costs $35. Groups of 10 or more qualify for a $25 ticket. Applicable fees may apply. Tickets go on sale Friday, August 19, at noon and can be purchased at Tickets300 (300 Broadway, Fargo; open Monday – Friday noon to 6 p.m.), via phone at 701-205-3182 or online at JadePresents.com. Doors open one hour prior to performance; the show is all-ages appropriate.

Away in the Basement takes place in 1959, the day of the Sunday School Christmas Program. The bustle of holiday preparations surrounds the ladies, as they create their own memories of Christmases past and present. As the children rehearse up in the sanctuary, the ladies of the kitchen cook up witty humor, place the final touches on the nativity scene costumes and are called upon yet again to save the day!

The Fargo Theatre is located at 314 Broadway North. Visit JadePresents.com for additional information.
