The Root Beer Lady

Sept. 11 7pm, Sept. 12 2pm

Written by and performed by Kim Schultz, The Root Beer Lady tells the story of the indomitable Dorothy Molter, the last legal non-indigenous resident of the Boundary Waters. The story reflects the beauty and hardships of Molter’s solitary yet satisfying life beginning in 1934. The play, funny and passionate, explores her independence, fortitude and love of nature. Molter pushes back against the premise that her time in the North Woods made her the “Loneliest Woman in America,” as the Saturday Evening Post claimed in 1952. Tickets: $30 adults, $15 students ages 17 and under, available at www.zeffy.com/en-US/ticketing/root-beer-lady.
