Guys on Ice: The Ice Fishing Musical

Sunday, January 31, 2027

4:00 PM

From the land of ten thousand lakes to the frozen bays of the Great Lakes, Guys on Ice is hitting the road to celebrate the secret language of the North:  ice fishing.   This beloved musical comedy invites audiences into a world where the beer is cold, the stove is warm, and the wisdom is as thick as the ice on the lake.


THE STORY:

The show follows two lifelong pals, Marvin and Lloyd, as they spend a day in their ice shanty doing everything but catching fish.

  • Marvin is a dreamer, anxiously awaiting a visit from a cable TV fishing show host he’s certain will turn him into a regional celebrity.

  • Lloyd is the philosopher, currently in the doghouse after suggesting that an anniversary trip to see the Packers play the Bears was the height of romance.

  • Ernie the Moocher rounds out the trio, constantly popping in to "borrow" a beer or a snack, while doubling as the host of a hilarious, prize-filled halftime show that puts the audience right in the middle of the action.

WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT:


More than just a play, Guys on Ice is a musical tribute to the stobborn resilience of Midwesterners.  Featuring show-stopping numbers like "De Wishing Hole," "Fish is de Miracle Food" and the legendary "Ode to a Snowmobile Suit" (feating a zipper dance routine you have to see to believe), this productions captures the heart, the humor and the "oh-fer"cute" charm of life on the ice.
