"It is not customary for me to call a play or musical "magical" but there is no other word to describe American Folklore Theatre's latest offering... Main-Travelled Roads." Marty Lash - Wisconsin Theatre Critic%0d "Dear Mr. Hudson and Mr. Libman: It is my pleasure to inform you that the Richard Rodgers Award Committee has chosen your musical play Main-Travelled Roads, to receive a Richard Rodgers Award."

About the Show

Based on the timeless tales by Wisconsin writer Hamlin Garland, Main-Travelled Roads tells two tales of love, one laugh-out loud funny, the other one more probing - but both stories touch the heart. The stories combine to form a show that is both tuneful and charming. Main-Travelled Roads is about lives and loves in early Wisconsin.
