  • Guys On Ice | G.L. Berg Entertainment

    An Ice Fishing Musical Guys On Ice An Ice Fishing Musical Download Media Kit [object Object] The Quintessential Comedy of the North From the land of ten thousand lakes to the frozen bays of the Great Lakes, Guys on Ice is hitting the road to celebrate the secret language of the North: ice fishing. This beloved musical comedy invites audiences into a world where the beer is cold, the stove is warm, and the wisdom is as thick as the ice on the lake. The Story The show follows two lifelong pals, Marvin and Lloyd, as they spend a day in their ice shanty doing everything but catching fish. Marvin is a dreamer, anxiously awaiting a visit from a cable TV fishing show host he’s certain will turn him into a regional celebrity. Lloyd is the philosopher, currently in the doghouse after suggesting that an anniversary trip to see the Packers play the Bears was the height of romance. Ernie the Moocher rounds out the trio, constantly popping in to "borrow" a beer or a snack, while doubling as the host of a hilarious, prize-filled halftime show that puts the audience right in the middle of the action. "A heartfelt, hilarious journey into a culture where a well-insulated suit is a fashion statement and a day in a shack is a day in paradise." Why You’ll Love It More than just a play, Guys on Ice is a musical tribute to the stubborn resilience of Midwesterners. Featuring show-stopping numbers like "De Wishing Hole," "Fish is de Miracle Food," and the legendary "Ode to a Snowmobile Suit" (featuring a zipper dance routine you have to see to believe), this production captures the heart, the humor, and the "oh-fer-cute" charm of life on the ice.
