Weather Cancellation Notice – SUNDAY Performance of "The Sparkley Clean Funeral Singers."

GOOD NEWS - FRIDAY and SATURDAY shows will continue as planned!

Due to a predicted snowstorm in our area, we have made the very difficult decision to cancel the SUNDAY 2:00 Performance of "The Sparkley Clean Funeral Singers" for the safety of our audience, cast, and crew.

If you already have tickets for the Sunday show, we would LOVE to see you at one of our 7:00 PM performances on Friday or Saturday night instead. There is no need to contact us or change your ticket in advance—just come to the show you prefer, and we will check you in at the door.

If you are unable to attend either of those performances, you may request a refund through the ticket confirmation email you received when you purchased your tickets.

If you would prefer to leave your ticket payment as a donation to Z-Theatre, we would be incredibly grateful! Productions like this require significant resources, and every contribution helps keep community theatre alive and thriving in Zumbrota.

Thank you so much for supporting our theatre. We truly appreciate our community and hope you’re able to join us for one of the earlier performances of "The Sparkley Clean Funeral Singers."

Stay safe and warm, and we hope to see you soon!
