This spring, Sun Prairie East High School is proud to present the classic tale of “The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe”!
This dramatization of C.S. Lewis’ classic work faithfully recreates the magic and mystery of Aslan, the great lion, his struggle with the White Witch, and the adventures of four children who inadvertently wander from an old wardrobe into the exciting, never-to-be-forgotten Narnia. The intense action features chases, duels and escapes as the witch is determined to keep Narnia in her possession and to end the reign of Aslan. All the memorable episodes from the story are represented in this exciting dramatization: the temptation of Edmund by the witch, the slaying of the evil wolf by Peter, the witnessing of Aslan’s resurrection by Susan and Lucy, the crowing of the four new rulers of Narnia, and more. The supporting characters are also here: the unicorn, the centaur and other forest animals, along with Father Christmas, Mr. and Mrs. Beaver and Tumnus the Faun. This story of love, faith, courage and giving, with its triumph of good over evil, is a true celebration of life.

Shows will be on:-Thursday, April 30th at 7:00 pm-Friday, May 1st at 7:00 pm-Saturday, May 2nd at 7:00 pm-Sunday, May 3rd at 2:00pm (ASL interpreted)

Primal'Cue and Salvatore's Collaboration Night
2026-05-14 16:00 - 21:00, 2026-05-21 16:00 - 21:00 | Primal’Cue Barbeque Joint & Catering, 838 Grove St., Sun Prairie, 53590, United States
🚨 PRIMAL ’CUE X CHEF BRIAN — ONE NIGHT ONLY 🚨
May 14th… we didn’t just make a special…
we built a problem (for your self-control).
Chef Brian is pulling up and we went full send on flavor:
💥 PORK BELLY BURNT ENDS CARBONARA
We’re talking rich, silky carbonara loaded with smoked pork belly burnt ends — crispy edges, melt-in-your-mouth fat, deep BBQ smoke wrapped into that creamy, peppery pasta.
It’s smoky meets classic Italian… and somehow it works way too well.
💥 SMOKED PEACH COBBLER TART
Slow-smoked peaches baked into a buttery tart, topped with Sassy Cow ice cream and finished with bourbon caramel.
Hot + cold, smoky + sweet… basically dessert doing the absolute most.
This is not a “grab a quick bite” situation.
This is a:
🔥 loosen-your-belt-before-you-even-order
🔥 “we should split this”… doesn’t split it
🔥 stare-at-the-table-in-silence-after-the-first-bite kind of meal
Game plan:
✔️ Come hungry
✔️ Bring backup eaters (or don’t, we don’t judge)
✔️ Prepare to immediately start talking about this meal again tomorrow
When it’s gone… it’s gone. No reruns. No second chances.
📅 May 14th
📍 Primal ’Cue
Tag your crew… or risk hearing about it from everyone else the next day 😤

Beth writes songs with real emotional depth — the kind that feel both personal and universal at once. In a room this small, you’ll hear every word, every note, and everything in between.
This isn’t just a concert. It’s an experience — and with only 30 tickets available, it’s one you won’t want to miss!
