“Guys on Ice” Television Premiere

Northern Sky Theater, the new name of American Folklore Theatre, has officially announced the airdate for their television debut of Guys On Ice. The program premieres March 4 at 7 pm on Wisconsin Public Television’s (WPT) statewide network.

Since its theatrical debut in 1998, Guys on Ice has become a Wisconsin musical tradition. Enchanting audiences of all ages, the play has drawn fans to productions at Northern Sky Theater in Door County’s Peninsula State Park and on stages across the state and beyond.

Join Marvin and Lloyd inside their ice fishing shanty for a hilarious look at life, love and the pursuit of the perfect catch – even when the fish aren’t biting. Laugh and sing along with classic songs like “The Wishing Hole,” “Ode to a Snowmobile Suit,” and “The One That Got Away.”

Recorded at Northern Sky Theater in summer 2014 and starring Doug Mancheski, Steve Koehler, and Lee Becker, this is the first time the musical, written by Fred Alley and James Kaplan, has been captured on video.
