Rice Lake is not a very big town, less than 10,000, yet it supports many of the arts. The college offers concerts, there is a community orchestra, and among others, two performing arts theaters.
The Northern Star Theatre Company is a nice venue offering several performances through the year. I saw The Wizard of Oz there a few weeks ago, and this past week, I saw The Bikinis. The fictional story of a girls group who gained fame in the 60s and went on to sing together into adulthood.

The four women were outstanding vocalists and I enjoyed the show very much. The set was clever, and since there were only a few modest costume changes and most of the time the women were standing while they sang, it was adequate to create the atmosphere of the beach. With painted on sand and umbrellas to allow for costume switch, it also provided a nook (hidden at your left) for the outstanding orchestra.
With tickets costing $14, it is really such a bargain to be totally entertained for 2 hours in the comfort of good seating.
The second live theater is this immediate area, is The Red Barn Theater.
