Had a great time seeing Lord Gordon Gordon tonight at the History Theatre in St. Paul with Mom and Janet. It was very funny and the songs were great.
Here is the blurb on the musical which is based on the real life con man who almost caused a war between Minnesota and Canada!
“1871. An imposter going by the name of Lord Gordon Gordon wanders into Minnesota and causes such a stir that he nearly ignites a war with Canada. A fake. A fraud. A snake-charmer. This con-artist would dazzle and swindle his way into the hearts and wallets of some very well-to-do Minnesotans and then take them on a journey as twistedly bizarre as Glensheen. Hold on tight and take this wacky, wickedly funny, and musically smart journey through the exploits of Lord, “Oh, Lordy!” Gordon Gordon!” (https://www.historytheatre.com/2017-2018/lord-gordon-gordon).
Thank you to Norwegian Explorer Jeffery Hatcher for the tickets!
