Coming late summer ON SEPT. 5TH AT 7 PM ~The Root Beer Lady is a popular one-woman play written and performed by Kim Schultz that chronicles the life of Dorothy Molter, the last legal non-indigenous resident of the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness (BWCAW). The play, often staged at the History Theatre in St. Paul, MN, celebrates Molter’s life, independent spirit, and her famous home-brewed root beer.

Patty Lester's participation in the theater world extends from cooking madrigal fare and setting her hair on fire, to playing a gender reversal role in
"Fiddler", portraying Queen Isabella in "Turtle Island Blues ", being on the board of two active local theater groups, box office manager, and general "go for " and finder of "things", that may have eluded others. As her son has said, "going to a production I see things on stage that will return to the house when the play is finished”. Patty co-founded M&R in 2006 .
