| | Sweet treat: A one-woman play tells the story of Dorothy Molter, the 'Root Beer Lady' |
At a rehearsal for “The Root Beer Lady” at History Theatre in St. Paul, playwright and performer Kim Schultz stands on stage as one of Minnesota’s larger-than-life folk heroines. A sign reads “limit two root beers.”
“Root Beer, yes, yes, that’s probably what you’re all waiting for,” Schultz says. “I made home-made root beer.”
Through her words and performance, Schultz conjures up the spirit of Dorothy Molter, the last legal non-Indigenous resident of the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness. | |
