Florence has a long musical career: the Posies covered her song “Christmas” for a 1994 Geffen release, and just last year over the pandemic, she co-created Cover Charge, a charting compilation of NC artists to benefit the legendary Chapel Hill venue Cat’s Cradle. She spent a lot of time between then and now riding around on Steve Earle’s tour bus, catching up with her Dukes-drumming husband Will Rigby, wrote a book, put on a conference at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, took a seat on the board at the Bob Dylan Institute-and had a kid. During the next 50 years, the Opera House was used for plays, political rallies, temperance speeches, boxing and wrestling matches, high school graduations, and class plays. While singing Norwegian songs has been the primary focus of the Chorus, sacred and secular. For a snack and beverage before, or after, the show there is Fahrenheit 364 right across the street serving locally made craft beers. There is a wonderful bed & breakfast, Naeset-Roe Bed & Breakfast, which is nearby so you can make a lovely day-trip out of it. It opened on Februwith Ullie Akerstrom s comic play, The Doctors Warm Reception. Covenant Lutheran Church, 1525 W Van Buren, Stoughton, WI. I recommend it for even out of town folks. Even not counting the pandemic, the road from her first record Perfect City to Highways and Rocketships has been anything but straight. The Stoughton Opera House was originally known as the City Auditorium. Nashville-born, Chapel Hill-based Florence Dore has just finished recording her second record, Highways and Rocketships with Mitch Easter and Don Dixon. Earle brings a rare and unforgettable 2 night solo acoustic show to the stage. Playing alongside these country music “outlaws” gave Earle the hard-edged stamina to press on through years of hard times to win 3 Grammy awards and earn 16 nominations. At a young age, his grit and gristle got him up on stage with idols Guy Clark and Townes Van Zandt. and a robust arts and entertainment scene, including the Stoughton Opera House, a restored 1901. A guitarist, actor, playwright, novelist, memoirist, and political activist, Earle, has released over 20 albums. Our Home: Stoughton WI - Stoughton Area School District.
