Winter Dance Party
2024-01-25 13:30 | Paramount Center for the Arts, 913 W. St. Germain Street, St. Cloud, MN, 56301, United States
John Mueller’s “Winter Dance Party” ® is the official live and authentic re-creation of Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and the Big Bopper’s final tour and the only show endorsed by the Holly, Valens and Richardson estates. Each live concert performance includes over two hours of unbridled, high voltage entertainment featuring all the hit songs of the 50’s era:That’ll Be The Day, Peggy Sue, Oh, Boy, Rave on, La Bamba, Chantilly Lace, and many, many more.
John Mueller, the critically acclaimed former star of the U.S. touring version of the London/Broadway hit musical “Buddy..the Buddy Holly Story,” performs as Buddy Holly and Linwood Sasser fills the legendary footsteps of the Big Bopper. Ray Anthony performs as Ritchie Valens and is a renowned star of the “Legends of Rock and Roll” show at the Imperial Palace in Las Vegas. The very authentic and energetic four piece band (guitar, drums, stand up bass and sax) includes Grammy award winning Mike Acosta on saxophone.
The Winter Dance Party show has performed in front of over 2 million people on national TV for the Jerry Lewis Telethon, has toured extensively throughout the United States and Canada at theatres, performing arts centers, ballrooms, corporate events, casinos and even the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame along with John Mellencamp, Marshall Crenshaw and others.
Highlights over the years have included receiving the keys to the city of Green Bay, WI from the Mayor, playing in the legendary Surf ballroom on the same day Buddy, Ritchie, and the Big Bopper did 40 years prior and performing on stage with Maria Elena Holly (Buddy’s widow), Niki Sullivan (an original Cricket band member) and Tommy Allsup (original Winter Dance Party guitarist and legendary Nashville producer.)
“Flawless….rings as clear and true as a chord from a Fender Stratocaster.”
-The Chicago Tribune
“An air tight band with energy-packed execution of a long string of classics. Rather than museum pieces or mere fodder for oldies radio, these songs had all the vitality and punch that they carried 41 years ago.”
-Springfield State Journal Register
“Winter Dance Party captures Holly era…a dead-on re-creation of the ’59 show.”
-Kalamazoo Gazette
“One of the best concerts I’ve ever seen.”
-Larry Holly (Buddy’s brother)
“John Mueller(as Buddy Holly) gives a stunning portrayal. Highly recommended.”
-Chicago Sun Times

A Comedy - 1992: Mistakes Were Made! A Smash Hit at MN Fringe Festival by Jason Schommer
2024-01-18 19:30 | Pioneer Place on Fifth, 22 Fifth Avenue South, St. Cloud, MN, 56301
The smash hit show of Minnesota Fringe Festival returns for a special encore performance!
2023 MN Fringe Festival Golden Lanyard Award Winner!
“1992: Mistakes Were Made!” named one of the Star Tribune’s top 11 picks for shows to not miss (out of 101 shows!)!

4 ½ out of 5 Stars Audience Rating!

Audience Reviews…
“Jason has some of the best storytelling timing out there…”
“Heartfelt with humor.”
“Jason is a great storyteller, and it shows.”
“…the audience was CACKLING.”
“Jason’s storytelling is both H-I-Larious and heartbreaking…”
“…delightfully performed…”
“Great story with wonderful wit, charm, and honesty.”
“This is inspiring!”
“…a stellar opening night…”
“It would be a mistake to miss this show”
“Jason is absolutely pee-your-pants funny”
“Hilarious storytelling and impeccable timing on this one.”
“1992: Mistakes Were Made!” is an outrageously hilarious true story of the class geek returning to perform at his 20th high school reunion. Bullies confronted, memories questioned, old wounds revisited. What could go wrong? Stay cool! Don’t ever change!

In this hysterical and poignant comedy, Jason looks back at high school and how it shapes a person (for better or worse) as they move forward in life. From the days of being an unpopular kid in school with a rather unfortunate senior class photo to graduating and working in entertainment with the famous in New York City, Hollywood and Vegas. When Jason returns to his hometown to perform at his 20th class reunion, things take a wildly unexpected turn, and it ends up being an unforgettable night. “1992: Mistakes Were Made!” is an unflinching yet laugh out loud funny look at who you were then versus who you are now and how high school lingers for a lifetime, whether you like it or not. Revenge of the nerd! A show 31 years in the making!

Jason Schommer is a standup comedian and storyteller who spent two years as the opening act for comedy legend Louie Anderson in Las Vegas and toured with Louie regularly. Comedy icon Louie Anderson said “Jason is funny, clever, smart, and on his way to the big time!”. As a stand up comic, Jason has performed all over the USA as well as Canada and for the US Military in Japan. Jason has worked with such comedy superstars as Chris Kattan (Saturday Night Live, Night at the Roxbury), Josh Blue (Last Comic Standing champion), Judy Tenuta (Grammy Award Best Comedy Album), and Tim Meadows (Saturday Night Live, The Ladies’ Man). Jason’s sharp wit and spur of the moment playfulness keeps the audience on the edge of their seat with crazy and absurd “is-this-really-happening” stories to jokes with unexpected twists and turns and off-the-cuff riffs. The laughs come fast and furious as Jason mines everyday life, turning the seemingly mundane and routine into comedy gold. A regular performer at The Moth, Jason has won numerous Story Slam competitions and was invited to perform at the GrandSlams at The Fitzgerald Theatre in St. Paul (2016, 2023) and The Guthrie Theater (2018) and at the Pantages Theater (2022). Jason has been heard nationally on The Moth Radio Hour as well as featured on the podcast. Jason has worked in New York City for The Rosie O’Donnell Show and has worked behind the scenes in Hollywood as a stand in for Louie Anderson on the FX television series Baskets. In 2017 Jason released his first live comedy album “Confessions of a Local Celebrity”. Most recently Jason went viral on TikTok by starring in a video with Dave Ryan from KDWB and hitting over 5.3 million views.
