Facts: Critically acclaimed American Folklore Theatre (AFT) in Door County to release a cast album of their 2012 World Premiere, Victory Farm.  

 

Release: American Folklore Theatre (AFT) has announced the release of the 2012 World Premiere, Victory Farm, album featuring the original cast recorded live in Peninsula State Park, Fish Creek, Wisconsin. 

 

"The buzz for Victory Farm was great all summer long and we are so pleased to be able to offer this CD to our fans." said Holly Feldman, Manager of Marketing and Audience Development. The Victory Farm CD is currently available for pre-order on the AFT website at www.FolkloreTheatre.com. 

 

The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel had this to say about the music of Victory Farm: "... what really makes Victory Farm sing is its stirring and emotionally satisfying score, which features moving love songs, a poignant tribute to the meaning of home and through-sung numbers like 'Hand Over Hand,' in which Valcq's harmonies mesh seamlessly with the advancing story."

 

"The cast album is in currently in production with an anticipated arrival in our office on Tuesday, December 18th. We are planning a quick turn-around so we can mail them out on Wednesday, December 19th," said Feldman. "With any luck, people should have them in hand in time for Christmas."

 

Victory Farm is a story of "family, forgiveness, and the fruits of our labor" set in Door County during World War II. The music is written by award-winning composer James Valcq, best known for the worldwide success of The Spitfire Grill written with AFT co-founder Fred Alley. The book and lyrics for Victory Farm were conceived and written by Emilie Coulson and Katie Dahl.   

 

The highly anticipated show was received with rave reviews this past summer and will return in the fall of 2013 to the Door Community Auditorium. 

 

American Folklore Theatre is a non-profit professional theatre organization that produces original musical shows in repertory from June through August.  AFT continues its performances into the fall with shows at the Door Community Auditorium and town halls September through October and over the Christmas holiday.
