History Theatre - Not For Sale, March 26, 2020

The LWV of Roseville Area is organizing another History Theatre play outing as a group on Thursday, March 26 at 7:30 p.m. The play is the drama, Not for Sale, which takes place in the 1950s and 1960s in the Twin Cities as families of color face discrimination buying houses in all white neighborhoods.

This play provides a historical background to the LWV of Roseville Area’s affordable housing study and current advocacy activities. The play tells the story of Arnold Weigel, real estate businessman, who came to the aid of families of color at peril to his career. It also highlights the effects to the community with the destruction of the Rondo neighborhood of St. Paul. For more information about the play, see the History Theater website: historytheatre.com/2019-2020/not-sale  Ramp parking is available across Wabasha from the History Theatre, accessible via skyway.

Discounted price per seat is $35, payable by check or PayPal.  Payment, including checks, must be received no later than Friday, February 21 so that we can confirm our numbers and meet the theater's payment deadline. If you have questions, please email Sharon McCord (sjmccord@comcast.net).
