Lucky Plush Productions
The Queue
Lucky Plush transforms the dull and passive act of waiting in an airport into a humorous and dynamic performance featuring dance, theater, and live music. Adapted from a 1746 farce, The Queue features a diverse group of travelers who discover unlikely links connecting them all to a dying man in Spain. Featuring music by The Claudettes, a neo-vaudevillian duo, The Queue blends slapstick comedy, Busby Berkeley-esque choreography, and contemporary dance to create a show worth waiting in line for.
This presentation is supported by the Arts Midwest Touring Fund, a program of Arts Midwest that is funded by the National Endowment for the Arts, with additional contributions from the Iowa Arts Council, the Crane Group and General Mills Foundation.
