    Freedom Fries! is a new musical that blends humor, heart, and history. Set in Minnesota and Paris in 2003, the story follows three intertwining love stories against the backdrop of a moment often overlooked: the worldwide protests leading up to the Iraq War. Inspired by the era of “Freedom Fries” and shifting political tensions, this historical fiction dramedy explores love in all its forms (romantic, cultural, familial, and ideological) while examining what it means to stand on opposite sides and still find common ground. Thought-provoking, human, and funny, this staged reading will offer an exciting first look at a new work in development.
