Joys, cleverness of ‘Dairy Heirs’ return to Door County amphitheater

"This is a solidly made and played show....

The 2019 production is just as good, just as solid and just as amazing in such songs as the super-comical 'Exactly Alike.'...

Northern Sky Theatre has been around for decades, and people are still discovering it and, judging by Monday night’s standing ovation, more than just liking what they see on stage."

Northern Sky Theater director talks creation of 'Dairy Heirs'

"Music connects us on a visceral level. In musical relationships, a subtle look can contain a wealth of communication; there is a beautiful give and take that happens all in the unspoken. When we listen so intently that we breathe together, we find the “pocket” where the groove sits just right, and we play even the most difficult passages tightly in sync — well, there’s just nothing else like it."

‘Dairy Heirs’ Musical in Door County Captures Wisconsin Spirit

“Dairy Heirs” sounds like a cute title for a quaint story about Wisconsin folks who ache to keep the family farm going. It is… and then again, it is much more.

Take the first song, 'Home.' The show jumps right into singing by one person. Then another sings 'Home,' then another, then another, then another – each with a different meaning on what home means to him or her. Eventually, five people are singing 'Home' in five ways – at once."
