Top Hat Theatre Maple Grove

10/28/2025

HELLO ALL! While COVID squished Top Hat as a regular, local option, owners still do operate up north as a theater in Park Rapids (Long Lake Theater). Primarily a summer venue, we do a fall show and are doing a Christmas show this year. We are strongly and urgently seeking well behaved youth singer/actors ages 5-18 to portray the Cratchit Children! We are also casting adults for this production. The show will play locally in the Twin Cities and travel up north which will require hotel stay, but is covered by the company. Please let us know if you'd like an audition packet. First round is virtual. Thank you!!!! This is an urgent casting.... we are a bit behind where we'd like to be! Contact us at [email protected] for more info. Thank you and please spread the word.

Hello Actors of all ages! While Top Hat didn't survive COVID, we ARE still producing shows. We are currently auditioning youth ages 5 plus (and adults) for a beautiful musical version of A Christmas Carol. Please contact for details or check it out on playlist.'

Ebenezer Scrooge declines Christmas dinner with his family, opting to be alone as the dreaded holiday passes through once again. His heart, being as cold as his home, is challenged to warm up as the ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Future take him on a musical journey of his own life.

Hey Everyone! Sorry we have been so quiet! Many of you know I am walking again... (YAY!) but we are still not in a fiscal position to reopen the teaching studio. We are so thankful for you and for the support you have offered during this time of COVID-19 change. We will continue to fundraise to keep our storage paid while all of our stuff sits and waits for us.... Our goal is to look at re-opening for the fall of 2022. After over 20 years of teaching/production, it's been a very sad time being away from all the students and community actors. We miss you!!! If you'd like to order any Holiday goods, message me for the menu and suggested pricing. Due 12/20... I'll be baking on the 21st! Happy Holidays to all and we hope to see you soon. We miss you all so much!!!

Hey Everyone!

It's almost Valentine's Day!

In case you haven't heard... our group, Top Hat Theatre, is having a baking and basket fundraiser for Valentine's Day. Of course you can order for yourself.... OR A donation of any size will go towards supporting our company expenses during this pandemic AND sending some love into the community to some of our seniors in isolation! We partner with Gifts for Seniors who are connected to over 6,000 seniors in our community! It's a great mission all around. If you have it in your heart and budget, please consider donating or getting some sweets for your sweethearts! If you are thinking about buying treats for the kids.... a little love from the Top Hat kitchen might be just what Cupid ordered!

Attached is a photo of one of the Holiday bucket recipients. Hurrah for Happy Smiles!!! XOXOXO Please feel free to share this with family and friends. We appreciate your support! (Orders are due the 10th, but sooner is even better!) Look at this senior sneaking her holiday treats from around the door! Too shy for a photo!!!
