The Root Beer Lady

Thursday, Jan 30 @ 10:00 am - Saturday, Feb 1 @ 5:00 pm

We are proud to partner with The Root Beer Lady

Written and Performed by Kim Schultz  / Originally directed by Addie Gorlin-Han / Remounted by Jess YatesJanuary 25–February 23, 2025, various times
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. Back by popular demand, Dorothy’s story will delight all, young and old.
“…a warm, enjoyable love letter to the Boundary Waters.”  – Pioneer Press
