SUMMARY:Friday Night Music - Mullins Brothers
DESCRIPTION:When Stu and Sam Mullins formed The Mullins Brothers duo in 2012\, it was guided by one principle: play songs they love and that enthusiasm will be contagious. The results are an eclectic set covering four decades of the best of pop-rock: everything from classic songs by The Beatles\, Carole King and Steely Dan to modern masterpieces by Wilco\, Ben Folds and Fiona Apple.\nStu is the lead vocalist and plays guitar and percussion. He was recently inducted into the Iowa Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as part of eastern Iowa favorites Dogs On Skis. In 2013\, he released his first solo CD\, “Violet”.\nSam plays keyboards and contributes backing vocals. He is the principal songwriter and keyboardist for Stickman\, an original alt-rock band he formed with his brother Stu. Over the last two decades\, Stickman released three critically acclaimed CD’s and was twice selected to perform at the International Pop Overthrow festival based in Los Angeles and Chicago.\nAlthough the duo primarily plays cover songs\, they also include a few original selections from their various recording projects.

SUMMARY:Fair State
DESCRIPTION:Fair State: A World Premiere Written & Performed by Megan Gogerty\nJanuary 22 – February 1\, 2026 at Riverside Theatre\nSynopsis: When comedian Megan Gogerty loses her charming\, unreliable\, alcoholic father\, she unearths evidence of her family’s ancestral ties to the founding of the state of Iowa. Were they hearty immigrants making a new life on the frontier? Or a collection of self-satisfied boot-strappers complicit in destruction and erasure? (Why choose?) As she examines Iowa’s past\, she lays bare the secrets that haunt her and her sisters. What do we do with our problematic relatives? With our problematic history? We tell the truth.
