T.O.R.T. Presents 6th Annual U of M Law School Musical
T.O.R.T. = Theater of the Relatively Talentless
Law students are apparently multi-tasking, if not multi-talented.
Robin Hood, Esq. tells the story of the hero’s triumphant return from studying abroad. With the help of his new LL.M. friend and other characters he meets in the Sherwood Rare Books Room, he attempts to save the law school and the fair Marian from the evil clutches of Interim Dean John.
The Law School Musical is an original, full-length parody written, directed, and performed by University of Minnesota Law Students. Each year more than 70 Law School students shed their normally deadly serious demeanor to showcase hidden talents of wit, song, and dance.
Tradition dictates that each production features cameo appearances by faculty and prominent members of the legal community. Past participants include Former Vice President Walter Mondale, Former Attorney General Mike Hatch, Federal District Chief Judge James Rosenbaum and Senator Amy Klobuchar.
They say it’s appropriate for lawyers and non-lawyers, alike. I suspect a lawyer will find it funnier than I would. Still, worth a look-see. Costs the same as any number of theater and concert events around town, without the “homey” venue.
March 7 & 8 at 7:00 p.m., Pantages Theatre
Rated PG!
Tickets: $10/students, $15/general public

A friend of mine was in it last year and again this year. She said it’s a blast and that even non lawyers/law school students had a good time. Not sure if I’ll go, but I’d like to.
