*Guys On Ice*



*Actors’ Summit* Akron’s Professional theater announces the opening of *Guys
On Ice, the Ice Fishing Musical* on Nov. 27, 2015 with a preview
performance on Wed. Nov. 25, 2015.  *Guys On Ice*  is scheduled for a 16
performance run, closing on Sunday Dec. 20, 2015.  There is no performance
on Thanksgiving.



A free dessert reception with the cast follows the opening night
performance on Friday, Nov. 27th.



*The Play*



*Guys On Ice*, originally produced at *Actors’ Summit Theater* in 2009, is
an outrageously funny musical that is sprinkled with a copious supply of
fish tales, fishing jokes, and fishy figures of speech, not to mention the
dozen or so songs that graced the stage with their catchy tunes and clever
lyrics. Appropriate for all ages, this little gem is a great family show.



Originally created for the American Folklore Theatre—now Northern Light, *Guys
On Ice* It has been produced over a dozen times at the Milwaukee Repertory
Theater, and was filmed for Wisconsin Public Television in 2014.



*Guys on Ice* spends a day in the life of Marvin and Lloyd — fishing
buddies and home-grown philosophers. With musical numbers like, "The
Wishing Hole," "Ode to a Snowmobile Suit," "Fish is the Miracle Food" and
"The One That Got Away", this is a show for the entire family.





*Chuck Yarborough*, of the *Plain Dealer* reviewing the production at
Actors ‘Summit in 2009 said :  “…the jokes in the play…are just as corny,
the songs are just as catchy and … most important, really, the chemistry
between actors …is just as best-buds evident… it’s the Hope and Cosby road
picture that was never made.”





 *Performance details  *



*Guys On Ice *will have performances are Thursday, Friday, and Saturday
nights at 8:00 P.M. and Sundays at 2 PM,  Nov. 25th thru Dec. 20th.  There
