What began as a theatrical production has become an ann ual homecoming—for the performers\, the creative team\, and generations of guests who return year after year. To celebrate the 20th Anniversary\, we asked the people who bring this beloved holiday classic to life what ke eps them coming back and which moments continue to make the show so specia l. Kevin Dutcher: “The people in this show are my chosen family.” For Kevin Dutcher\, the heart of the production has always been the people. “The love of performing with my dearest friends\,” he says. “I’ve known everyone in the cast for 30 years\, but the bonds run deeper than th at. I’ve been in the wedding party of three cast members\, held many of their newborn children\, and attended the weddings of many of those same k iddos. The people in this show are my chosen family.” After two decades\ , those friendships have become just as much a tradition as the performanc e itself. Jim Cunningham: Every audience brings something new. While the s tory remains timeless\, one part of every performance is completely unique —the Audience Radio Grams. “We never know what we’ll get\,” Jim sa ys. “There’s always laughter and messages of love and hope.” Over th e years\, audiences have shared birthdays\, anniversaries\, birth announce ments\, marriage proposals\, and countless milestones\, creating unforgett able moments that make every show one of a kind. Ross Young: It’s all ab out connection. Ross Young’s favorite memories come from the connections made on stage and in the audience. Whether it’s a meaningful glance sha red with fellow cast member Jennifer Edwards during “Auld Lang Syne” o r surprising children in the audience with Saint Paul Hotel stocking caps\ , it’s those personal moments that stay with him long after the final cu rtain. Adena Brumer: “This show is part of my DNA.” For Adena Brumer\, returning each holiday season simply feels like coming home. “The cast\ , the hotel\, the staff at the hotel\, the audience… this show is part o f my DNA\, and I can’t imagine my life without it.” Seeing longtime au dience members\, welcoming first-time guests\, and being greeted by The Sa int Paul Hotel staff each year are all part of what makes this tradition s o meaningful. Phil Callen: A family holiday tradition. “The tradition an d the people.” That’s what keeps Phil Callen returning year after year . “The Saint Paul Hotel is absolutely magical during the holidays. This tradition has become a central part of my family’s holiday experience. I t’s the longest holiday tradition I’ve had in my life.” Sharing the season with fellow cast members and the hotel’s familiar faces has made this production an irreplaceable part of the holidays. Rebecca Karstad: Ce lebrating tradition behind the scenes. Costume designer Rebecca Karstad ha s helped create the show’s timeless look for years. Her reason for retur ning is beautifully simple: “My deep love of traditions and the fun of w orking with all these beautiful people.” Christopher Whiting: Keeping au diences guessing. Christopher Whiting loves the moments that catch audienc es by surprise. “My favorite moments are the gags that surprise the audi ence. Sometimes people ask if something that happened was an accident. The n I know I got ’em!” Those unexpected laughs have become part of what makes every performance memorable. Mark Bergen: The moment that defines Ge orge Bailey. Director Mark Bergen points to one quiet scene as his favorit e. When George Bailey offers kindness and encouragement to Violet before s he leaves Bedford Falls\, “that short\, quiet scene says everything abou t George Bailey.” It’s a reminder that compassion is often found in li fe’s smallest moments. Dan Duke: A message of hope. “There are lots\, ” Dan Duke says\, “but my favorite is when George Bailey realizes he w ants to live again.” It’s the emotional heart of the story—and one t hat continues to resonate with audiences after all these years. Jennifer E dwards: From joyful music to heartfelt emotion. Jennifer Edwards treasures both the laughter and the emotion of the production. “My favorite pre-s how moment is singing ‘Man With the Bag’ with Adena. She is the Queen of harmonies.” Her favorite scene in the play comes when Uncle Billy rea lizes the bank deposit is missing. “It’s crushing\, and it changes the trajectory of the show. Things get very real\, leading to incredibly poig nant family scenes where celebrating the holiday becomes layered with hope \, love\, and sacrifice.” A Holiday Tradition That Feels Like Home For 2 0 years\, the cast of It’s a Wonderful Life: A Live Radio Play has made The Saint Paul Hotel the backdrop for one of the Twin Cities’ most belov ed holiday traditions. Their stories reveal that while audiences come for the nostalgia and timeless message\, it’s the friendships\, family\, and sense of home that have kept this remarkable cast together for two decade s. This holiday season\, celebrate the 20th Anniversary of It’s a Wonder ful Life: A Live Radio Play and experience the warmth\, laughter\, and hea rt that have made this production a treasured tradition at The Saint Paul Hotel for generations.

What began as a theatrical production has become an ann ual homecoming—for the performers\, the creative team\, and generations of guests who return year after year. To celebrate the 20th Anniversary\, we asked the people who bring this beloved holiday classic to life what ke eps them coming back and which moments continue to make the show so specia l. Kevin Dutcher: “The people in this show are my chosen family.” For Kevin Dutcher\, the heart of the production has always been the people. “The love of performing with my dearest friends\,” he says. “I’ve known everyone in the cast for 30 years\, but the bonds run deeper than th at. I’ve been in the wedding party of three cast members\, held many of their newborn children\, and attended the weddings of many of those same k iddos. The people in this show are my chosen family.” After two decades\ , those friendships have become just as much a tradition as the performanc e itself. Jim Cunningham: Every audience brings something new. While the s tory remains timeless\, one part of every performance is completely unique —the Audience Radio Grams. “We never know what we’ll get\,” Jim sa ys. “There’s always laughter and messages of love and hope.” Over th e years\, audiences have shared birthdays\, anniversaries\, birth announce ments\, marriage proposals\, and countless milestones\, creating unforgett able moments that make every show one of a kind. Ross Young: It’s all ab out connection. Ross Young’s favorite memories come from the connections made on stage and in the audience. Whether it’s a meaningful glance sha red with fellow cast member Jennifer Edwards during “Auld Lang Syne” o r surprising children in the audience with Saint Paul Hotel stocking caps\ , it’s those personal moments that stay with him long after the final cu rtain. Adena Brumer: “This show is part of my DNA.” For Adena Brumer\, returning each holiday season simply feels like coming home. “The cast\ , the hotel\, the staff at the hotel\, the audience… this show is part o f my DNA\, and I can’t imagine my life without it.” Seeing longtime au dience members\, welcoming first-time guests\, and being greeted by The Sa int Paul Hotel staff each year are all part of what makes this tradition s o meaningful. Phil Callen: A family holiday tradition. “The tradition an d the people.” That’s what keeps Phil Callen returning year after year . “The Saint Paul Hotel is absolutely magical during the holidays. This tradition has become a central part of my family’s holiday experience. I t’s the longest holiday tradition I’ve had in my life.” Sharing the season with fellow cast members and the hotel’s familiar faces has made this production an irreplaceable part of the holidays. Rebecca Karstad: Ce lebrating tradition behind the scenes. Costume designer Rebecca Karstad ha s helped create the show’s timeless look for years. Her reason for retur ning is beautifully simple: “My deep love of traditions and the fun of w orking with all these beautiful people.” Christopher Whiting: Keeping au diences guessing. Christopher Whiting loves the moments that catch audienc es by surprise. “My favorite moments are the gags that surprise the audi ence. Sometimes people ask if something that happened was an accident. The n I know I got ’em!” Those unexpected laughs have become part of what makes every performance memorable. Mark Bergen: The moment that defines Ge orge Bailey. Director Mark Bergen points to one quiet scene as his favorit e. When George Bailey offers kindness and encouragement to Violet before s he leaves Bedford Falls\, “that short\, quiet scene says everything abou t George Bailey.” It’s a reminder that compassion is often found in li fe’s smallest moments. Dan Duke: A message of hope. “There are lots\, ” Dan Duke says\, “but my favorite is when George Bailey realizes he w ants to live again.” It’s the emotional heart of the story—and one t hat continues to resonate with audiences after all these years. Jennifer E dwards: From joyful music to heartfelt emotion. Jennifer Edwards treasures both the laughter and the emotion of the production. “My favorite pre-s how moment is singing ‘Man With the Bag’ with Adena. She is the Queen of harmonies.” Her favorite scene in the play comes when Uncle Billy rea lizes the bank deposit is missing. “It’s crushing\, and it changes the trajectory of the show. Things get very real\, leading to incredibly poig nant family scenes where celebrating the holiday becomes layered with hope \, love\, and sacrifice.” A Holiday Tradition That Feels Like Home For 2 0 years\, the cast of It’s a Wonderful Life: A Live Radio Play has made The Saint Paul Hotel the backdrop for one of the Twin Cities’ most belov ed holiday traditions. Their stories reveal that while audiences come for the nostalgia and timeless message\, it’s the friendships\, family\, and sense of home that have kept this remarkable cast together for two decade s. This holiday season\, celebrate the 20th Anniversary of It’s a Wonder ful Life: A Live Radio Play and experience the warmth\, laughter\, and hea rt that have made this production a treasured tradition at The Saint Paul Hotel for generations.

Plants\, microbes\, and animals together made the gra sslands one of the richest ecosystems on Earth and a massive carbon sink\, but the constant expansion of agriculture threatens what remains. \nWhen European settlers encountered the prairie nearly two hundred years ago\, r ather than a natural wonder\, they saw an alien and forbidding place. But with the steel plow\, artificial drainage\, and fertilizers\, they convert ed the prairie into some of the world’s most productive farmland—a tra nsformation unprecedented in human history. American farmers fed the indus trial revolution and made North America a global breadbasket\, but at a te rrible cost: the forced dislocation of Indigenous peoples\, pollution of g reat rivers\, and catastrophic loss of wildlife. Today\, industrial agricu lture continues its assault on the prairie\, plowing up one million acres of grassland a year. Farmers can protect this extraordinary landscape\, bu t trying new ideas can mean ruin in a business with razor-thin margins\, a nd will require help from Washington\, D.C.\, and from consumers. \nVetera n journalists and Midwesterners Dave Hage and Josephine Marcotty reveal hu manity’s relationship with this incredible land\, offering a deep\, comp assionate analysis of the difficult decisions and opportunities facing agr icultural and Indigenous communities. Sea of Grass is a vivid portrait of a miraculous ecosystem\, making clear why the future of this region is of essential concern far beyond the heartland.

What began as a theatrical production has become an ann ual homecoming—for the performers\, the creative team\, and generations of guests who return year after year. To celebrate the 20th Anniversary\, we asked the people who bring this beloved holiday classic to life what ke eps them coming back and which moments continue to make the show so specia l. Kevin Dutcher: “The people in this show are my chosen family.” For Kevin Dutcher\, the heart of the production has always been the people. “The love of performing with my dearest friends\,” he says. “I’ve known everyone in the cast for 30 years\, but the bonds run deeper than th at. I’ve been in the wedding party of three cast members\, held many of their newborn children\, and attended the weddings of many of those same k iddos. The people in this show are my chosen family.” After two decades\ , those friendships have become just as much a tradition as the performanc e itself. Jim Cunningham: Every audience brings something new. While the s tory remains timeless\, one part of every performance is completely unique —the Audience Radio Grams. “We never know what we’ll get\,” Jim sa ys. “There’s always laughter and messages of love and hope.” Over th e years\, audiences have shared birthdays\, anniversaries\, birth announce ments\, marriage proposals\, and countless milestones\, creating unforgett able moments that make every show one of a kind. Ross Young: It’s all ab out connection. Ross Young’s favorite memories come from the connections made on stage and in the audience. Whether it’s a meaningful glance sha red with fellow cast member Jennifer Edwards during “Auld Lang Syne” o r surprising children in the audience with Saint Paul Hotel stocking caps\ , it’s those personal moments that stay with him long after the final cu rtain. Adena Brumer: “This show is part of my DNA.” For Adena Brumer\, returning each holiday season simply feels like coming home. “The cast\ , the hotel\, the staff at the hotel\, the audience… this show is part o f my DNA\, and I can’t imagine my life without it.” Seeing longtime au dience members\, welcoming first-time guests\, and being greeted by The Sa int Paul Hotel staff each year are all part of what makes this tradition s o meaningful. Phil Callen: A family holiday tradition. “The tradition an d the people.” That’s what keeps Phil Callen returning year after year . “The Saint Paul Hotel is absolutely magical during the holidays. This tradition has become a central part of my family’s holiday experience. I t’s the longest holiday tradition I’ve had in my life.” Sharing the season with fellow cast members and the hotel’s familiar faces has made this production an irreplaceable part of the holidays. Rebecca Karstad: Ce lebrating tradition behind the scenes. Costume designer Rebecca Karstad ha s helped create the show’s timeless look for years. Her reason for retur ning is beautifully simple: “My deep love of traditions and the fun of w orking with all these beautiful people.” Christopher Whiting: Keeping au diences guessing. Christopher Whiting loves the moments that catch audienc es by surprise. “My favorite moments are the gags that surprise the audi ence. Sometimes people ask if something that happened was an accident. The n I know I got ’em!” Those unexpected laughs have become part of what makes every performance memorable. Mark Bergen: The moment that defines Ge orge Bailey. Director Mark Bergen points to one quiet scene as his favorit e. When George Bailey offers kindness and encouragement to Violet before s he leaves Bedford Falls\, “that short\, quiet scene says everything abou t George Bailey.” It’s a reminder that compassion is often found in li fe’s smallest moments. Dan Duke: A message of hope. “There are lots\, ” Dan Duke says\, “but my favorite is when George Bailey realizes he w ants to live again.” It’s the emotional heart of the story—and one t hat continues to resonate with audiences after all these years. Jennifer E dwards: From joyful music to heartfelt emotion. Jennifer Edwards treasures both the laughter and the emotion of the production. “My favorite pre-s how moment is singing ‘Man With the Bag’ with Adena. She is the Queen of harmonies.” Her favorite scene in the play comes when Uncle Billy rea lizes the bank deposit is missing. “It’s crushing\, and it changes the trajectory of the show. Things get very real\, leading to incredibly poig nant family scenes where celebrating the holiday becomes layered with hope \, love\, and sacrifice.” A Holiday Tradition That Feels Like Home For 2 0 years\, the cast of It’s a Wonderful Life: A Live Radio Play has made The Saint Paul Hotel the backdrop for one of the Twin Cities’ most belov ed holiday traditions. Their stories reveal that while audiences come for the nostalgia and timeless message\, it’s the friendships\, family\, and sense of home that have kept this remarkable cast together for two decade s. This holiday season\, celebrate the 20th Anniversary of It’s a Wonder ful Life: A Live Radio Play and experience the warmth\, laughter\, and hea rt that have made this production a treasured tradition at The Saint Paul Hotel for generations.

The quartet i s composed of Hansel Pérez Carrero (director\, violin)\, Ana Caridad Fró meta (violin)\, Amaya Fuentes Sarria (viola)\, and Denise Hernández Rabei ro (cello)\, all graduates of the University of the Arts in Havana. Alongs ide their work as a quartet\, its members have performed with some of Cuba ’s leading ensembles\, including the Havana Chamber Orchestra\, the Hava na Lyceum Orchestra\, and Música Eterna\, contributing to the country’s vibrant musical life. \nThe quartet made its debut during the 30th annive rsary celebration of the Havana Contemporary Music Festival and has since appeared at prestigious events including La Ruta de Mozart\, the Havana Cl assical Music Festival\, the Mozart-Habana Festival\, and the Habaneras Fe stival\, commemorating Havana’s 500th anniversary. Their repertoire span s the classical canon—from Mozart and Shostakovich to contemporary Cuban composers such as Alfredo Diez Nieto\, Alejandro Falcón\, and Jorge Amad o Molina. In 2022\, their recording of Molina’s Ofrenda\, featured on th e album of the same name\, received a Cubadisco Award\, Cuba’s highest r ecognition in the recording industry. \nIn 2023\, the Havana Quartet began a new artistic chapter in the United States\, performing at the Harvard F ivesparks Music Festival and the Apple Hill Center for Chamber Music. Ther e\, they collaborated with internationally acclaimed artists including Jud ith Eissenberg\, Rhonda Rider\, Judith Gordon\, and Leonard Matczynski. \n After relocating to the Minneapolis–Saint Paul area\, the quartet contin ued refining its artistry under the mentorship of Tom Rosenberg and J. Fre ivogel\, quickly becoming an active and valued presence in Minnesota’s c ultural community. The ensemble performs extensively throughout the state\ , presenting concerts and educational programs in concert halls\, universi ties\, schools\, libraries\, and community venues\, bringing chamber music to audiences across both urban and rural communities.

One of the most competitive and respected opportunities for emerging cl assical artists in the United States\, the fellowship recognizes chamber e nsembles demonstrating exceptional artistic excellence\, leadership\, and a commitment to broadening access and representation in classical music. T hrough this recognition\, the quartet has gained national visibility\, par ticipated in professional development and networking with leading artists and presenters\, and joined a distinguished community of musicians support ed by one of the country’s most influential organizations advancing dive rsity and excellence in the performing arts. \nDeeply committed to educati on and community engagement\, the Havana Quartet regularly presents master classes\, workshops\, and outreach programs that inspire emerging musician s while making chamber music accessible to diverse audiences. Their perfor mances combine technical excellence\, expressive artistry\, and a profound connection to their Cuban heritage. \nToday\, the Havana Quartet stands a s both an ambassador of Cuban musical excellence and a cultural bridge\, c onnecting communities through performances that celebrate artistic collabo ration\, shared traditions\, and the universal language of music.
