The WSU Retiree Center is offering another opportunity to see a fantastic Broadway musical in the Twin Cities. On Thursday, March 28th we will be heading to the Orpheum Theater in Minneapolis to see an evening performance of Disney’s The Lion King. 

Disney’s The Lion King is the 3rd longest-running musical in Broadway history. It has won over 70 major theater awards globally. It is a phenomenon!  We have secured great main-level seats for the show. 

We will not be stopping for dinner on this trip.  We would recommend eating a late lunch/early supper before we leave or packing something to eat on the bus. We will have snacks on the bus, and we will stop at Kwik Trip on the way there so that people can get more snacks if necessary.
 
Here is our itinerary:

4:00 pm – Board bus at Elks Parking Lot (4540 Service Drive, Winona).
5:15 pm – Stop at Kwik Trip in Red Wing for snacks
6:45-7:00 pm – Arrive at the Orpheum Theater
7:30 pm – Showtime 
10:00 pm – Board the bus for Winona 
12:30 am – Arrive at the Elks Parking Lot

The cost of the trip is $125/person and includes your ticket to the play and the bus ride. This ticket price does not include a tip for the bus driver, so please bring a couple of dollars if you want to give the driver a tip at the end of the day.

We have reserved 50 tickets for the play, so please register soon if you’re interested!  Remember, you do not need to be a WSU retiree to go on this trip. The trip is open to everyone!
