    Wonderful

    by Vicki on 12/18/19Ames Center - Burnsville

    The holiday Church Basement Ladies show was wonderful! The Christmas music was just what we needed and the story truly heartwarming. To see and hear so many things I heard as a kid in our country Lutheran church brought back both hilarious and fond memories. Don’t miss this show.

    Boring Basement Ladies 2019

    by Frankie on 12/11/19Ames Center - Burnsville

    I have been to others in the past and this was the least funny. I was disappointed. The highlight was the holiday songs, so I felt I got some holiday spirit.

    My face hurts!!

    by Tearose on 11/20/19Ames Center - Burnsville

    This is second Church ladies play for me, and laughed so hard that my cheeks hurt. It was funny and poignant at the same time but the ending with all the Elvis's put me over the edge with laughter!! I am bringing my sister to see it Dec 28 at 3 PM, and cant wait to feel the joy, and laughter that warms the soul once again!!!

    Funny but a bit too much singing

    by z. m. on 11/11/19Ames Center - Burnsville

    As expected, the show was funny and my Lutheran family loved it. In spite of the laughs, there was too much singing in the first half of the show. It appeared they were singing to cover up the fact they didn't have much dialog to say. Of the several shows we have seen, this was our least favorite.

    As usual, a great performance

    by Gma B on 11/7/19Ames Center - Burnsville

    As always, the actors are perfect for their roles! The music in this performance was great and added a lot to the story. Having grown up in a small town church in northern Minnesota and having worked many, many "church basement" dinners, it's easy to relate to the "ladies"!!! Love their shows!

    Recent Outing with my Sisters

    by Joy on 11/5/19Ames Center - Burnsville

    Enjoyed our evening with the CBL. My sisters enjoyed the program and message. I have attended several of the CBL and Looney Lutheran productions. I found this one had a slow start and just wasn't as instantly engaging as the others. Even with references at the beginning to the Pastor's wife, or the Widow Snustad, it would have helped to have more of a preface or better notes in the program about the characters and background information or something. That Gilmer GIlmerson was a pig farmer, for instance would have been nice. Also, having the main characters adding comments to the tape as others was disconcerting at first. Could there just be a "voice" as they recall or listen to it? The singing and execution was great. Just didn't have the pep and continuous engagement as other CBL plays I've been to.

    Always a laugh and a twist

    by Dave on 11/5/19Ames Center - Burnsville

    Wonderful! Enjoyed it a lot! If you lived in the era, you'll get the humor and the climate of that day. If you didn't, there's still so much to enjoy! Go see it.

    Small Venue

    by S. on 11/5/19Ames Center - Burnsville

    I was surprised we were in such a small theater. The set was cute.

    A fun evening!

    by C. W. on 11/4/19Ames Center - Burnsville

    This play was very entertaining. The actors were all professional and each did an excellent job. We had such a good time that we are already thinking about our next visit to the Ames Center.

    Great performance; HORRIBLE venue

    by AFLC Alice on 10/17/19

    I have seen several performances of the Church Basement Ladies over the years, and I've loved every one of them. They took the set right out of my little South Dakota church basement from my childhood! (My grandma was our Mrs. Snustad!) However, I don't know if I will go back to this venue. I am 5'11", and it was absolutely the most uncomfortable seating I've ever experienced at any theater. I felt like I was on a small plane on a mission trip to Zimbabwe!

    GREAT SHOW

    by E. N. on 4/1/19Effingham Performance Center - Effingham

    This is the 2nd Church Basement ladies play I have seen. Both were really good & funny. I also appreciate that they are clean shows that a family can go see.

    Slow start builds to great ending

    by rochf on 3/31/19Effingham Performance Center - Effingham

    I attended this performance with 4 friends. We all agreed it was funny and entertaining. The play started out rather slow, but it built to a very funny and great ending. The performers were excellent.

    Church Basement Ladies in Rise Up O Men

    by C. R. on 2/22/19Ames Center - Burnsville

    After a very good lunch at Dangerfield's in Shakopee, my friends and I enjoyed spending the afternoon of February 19th watching Rise Up O Men at the Ames Center. We laughed so much! I must say that I miss some of the original cast but the ones performing in those spots now are doing a good job. I was impressed that two of the actors were doing double duty. I was a faithful follower of Church Basement Ladies when it first came out, but I have missed a couple of plays. Keep up the great acting! We Lutherans enjoy watching you!
