"The Wonders" at Chaska Valley Family Theatre

The Wonders is a play based on the 1996 hit film "That Thing You Do", written and directed by Tom Hanks featuring live, on-stage performances of songs from the original film, including "All My Only Dreams," "Dance with Me Tonight", "Mr. Downtown," “When You Hold My Hand You Hold My Heart,” “My World Is Over,” and of course, the title song "That Thing You Do."

Set in Erie, Pennsylvania, in 1964 when “Beatle Mania” was taking over America and every small-town band was hoping for a chance at greatness. Guy Patterson, a bored appliance store clerk, fills in as drummer for a garage band at the local college talent show and good things start to happen. A snappy hit propels them up the charts, and The Wonders go from obscurity to teen sensations virtually overnight! But as tensions grow, can Guy keep the band together?
