Phillipe Cunningham, Ward 4 Minneapolis Council Member
Charlie Rounds, Program Manager, Mossier Social Action and Innovation Center
Special casting note: The entire cast for this special show identify as gay, lesbian, bisexual.
How do members of the GLBT community pass knowledge and perspective between generations? Unlike most minority groups, being born gay, bi, or trans does not necessarily mean you have gay, bi, or trans parents.
Charlie Rounds organizes intergenerational GLBT roundtables to help fill that gap. We will talk to him, as well as Minneapolis council member Phillipe Cunningham who at a relatively young age has already become a leader in the GLBT community and beyond.
TICKETS: $12 IN ADVANCE, OR AT THE DOOR WITH A FRINGE BUTTON · $15 AT THE DOOR WITH NO DISCOUNT.
“This activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a grant from the Metropolitan Regional Arts Council, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund.”

What is the show?
Described “As if C-SPAN were suddenly swarmed by the cast of SNL,” The Theater of Public Policy has garnered national media attention and fans for its unique blend of serious issues and improv comedy.
- Shows open with a lively conversation with a newsmaker or policy wonk.
- That conversation inspires a team of Minnesota’s most sharpest improvisers, who create entirely spontaneous sketches based on the interview.
- The expert guest(s) then answers questions from the audience.
- The show wraps with one last round of improv from the cast.
