Ice explores the men behind the door of an
ice shanty. In northern Wisconsin, the land of
frozen toes and wind-blown faces, Lloyd and
Marvin brave the cold to find companionship
and good fishing while enjoying the simple
luxuries of a faithful fishing-pole, a warm
snowmobile suit, and plenty of beer as they
scramble to protect their "cold ones" from
fellow angler Ernie the Moocher. Don't miss
your chance to catch the "big one" and have
the chance to be the winner in Ernie the
Moocher's Halftime Show by joining us for this
wonderfully hilarious evening.

as Camelot." Musically lush and touched with magic, Camelot entices us back to the time
of King Arthur, Guenevere, and the greatest knight of the Round Table, Lancelot. The king's
utopian ideals, however, breed their own demise and his kingdom unravels. But when Arthur is
at his lowest, a young boy arrives. Arthur gives him the sword Excalibur and sings him the title
song while the echoes of an unseen chorus assure us that the future will shine once again.
