This musical comedy story takes place in Bunyan Bay, Minnesota, in a little bar called "The Bunyan," owned by Clara and Gunner Johnson

Clara is 8½ months pregnant with their first child, and today she's looking forward to her baby shower, getting lots of presents, and taking a break from her raging hormones

But suddenly, a freak snow storm hits Bunyan Bay and they find themselves snowed in - all roads are closed and no-one can get in or out

Gunner's worst nightmare comes true when Clara goes into labor and he realizes he's going to have to deliver the baby in the bar ...

Characters

CLARA JOHNSON - Gunner's wife, strong willed co-owner of a bar called The Bunyan, has been married to Gunner for a long time; Clara is 8½ months pregnant with their first child, very hormonal, but sympathetic

GUNNER JOHNSON - Clara's husband, strong willed co-owner of The Bunyan, a north woods Archie Bunker

BERNICE LUNDSTROM - pretty, young, wholesome, innocent, ex-waitress at The Bunyan; dreams of going to Broadway

KANUTE GUNDERSON - oblivious, dense, harmless, full-of-himself business owner

AARVID GISSELSEN - slick, fast-talking karaoke salesman, a north woods "Music Man"

"Critic's Pick! The show is guaranteed to please, and has big hit written all over it!" ~ BroadwayWorld.com "GO!... Think Rowan and Martin's Laugh In on steroids!" - LA Weekly

"You will find yourself literally laughing out loud at the antics of Gunner, Clara, Kanute, Bernice, and Aarvid, and having them bring a bundle of joy into the world is a good thing!" ~ Topanga Messenger

"Wonderful characters, new terrific original songs, great choreography and belly filled laughs! ... Hysterically funny! For those of you that love silly, funny and entertaining evenings out, this is for you!" - NoHoArtsdistrict.com
