Bookended by the two World Wars,The Master Butchers Singing Club, a moving story of tradition, family, love and loss, follows the life of Fidelis Waldvogel and his family, as well as Delphine Watzka and her partner Cyprian, as they adjust in their separate lives in the small town of Argus, North Dakota. As Fidelis and Delphine’s lives intertwine, the play chronicles ordinary small-town citizens as they encounter the extraordinary events — both in their insular world and in the larger world — that come to define their lives.
What a wonderful photo. I've been waiting for news! I hope you had a wonderful opening weekend!
ReplyDeleteI think my dad has every book Louise has written. He's pretty evangelical about her, so if you need her books, he'll make sure you get them. (And he has multiples of several.) fyi.
