The Great American Trailer Park Musical Returns to Mason Street Warehouse

The Great American Trailer Park Musical is returning to Mason Street Warehouse (MSW) Equity Theatre from August 12 through August 28. Back by popular demand, Trailer Park debuted on the MSW stage 10 years ago and is the most requested musical in Mason Street's history. Tickets ($29 - $46) are available online at sc4a.org or by phone at 269-857.2399.

Called "...one of the most laugh-out-load shows in town!" by Broadway.com, the musical takes place in Armadillo Acres, the most exclusive mobile home community in Stark, Florida, where mullets, spray cheese, road kill, hysterical pregnancies and mud flaps reign supreme.

This hilarious comedy follows Pippi, a stripper on the run, who comes between the Dr. Phil-loving, agoraphobic Jeannie and her toll-collector husband, Norbert. Featuring tastefully distasteful songs, witty dialogue, and far-out situations, The Great American Trailer Park Musical "is more fun than a chair throwing episode of Jerry Springer set to music!"

Broadway talent is coming to the stage along with MSW "alumni." Chris Blisset, playing Norbert, comes from New York City and was on the national tour for Stand by Your Man twice and was the musical director for this summer's production of Million Dollar Quartet. Alyssa Malger is playing Pickles, and is making her Mason Street Warehouse debut. She performed in the national tour of Hairspray. Mary Mossberg, who is playing Betty, was awarded an "Outstanding Individual Performance" award for her role in the musical What Do Critics Know? In the NY Musical Theatre Festival and is a proud member of the Actors Equity Association.

"Both Broadway Equity talent and familiar faces are coming back to our stage, and we couldn't be more excited," says Executive Director Kristin Armstrong.

The Great American Trailer Park Musical will be at Mason Street Warehouse from August 12 through August 28. Tickets are available online, at the Saugatuck Center for the Arts box office, and by phone at 269 857 - 2399.

Thomas Boylan, a premier sponsor, and Great Lakes Manor and Cottages, Edward Jones, George Stoutin of Coldwell Banker, Gregg Smith of Shoreline Realtors, Dan and Sandy Shanahan of Mill Pond Realty, Laura Durham of Holland Doctors of Audiology, Hilliardd Lyons, Stephen Kiss and Cunningham Dalman of Coldwell Banker, Mike Bojko of Shoreline Realtors, Jim Sellman and Miller Johnson of Lakeshore Allergy, Julie Hutson of Frattallone Wealth Management Group, and Carlton Techonologies.
