Battle Creek Resident in Musical at Illusion Theater


Suzanne Reyburn, a resident of Battle Creek, will play the role of Miss Watson in the Minneapolis Musical Theatre production of Big River: The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn opening in downtown Minneapolis on Friday, April 9. This is Suzanne's tenth performance with the Minneapolis Musical Theatre.

Big River brings to life Huckleberry Finn's memorable characters and is told through a rousing musical score combining bluegrass, country and gospel music in a way only songwriting icon Roger Miller could. This play is directed by Minneapolis Musical Theatre's artistic director Steven Meerdink.

Tickets are $25 to $28 and are on sale through the Illusion Theater box office at 612.339.4944 or online at www.aboutmmt.org. The show is at the Illusion Theater, 8th floor of the Hennepin Center for the Arts, 528 Hennepin Ave (corner of 6th and Hennepin), Minneapolis. Here is a chance to see a classic book brought to life on the musical stage AND see a neighbor in the footlights!
