1898. Swedish immigrant Olaf Ohman digs up a rock on his property near Kensington, MN with “a story on carved runes” that tells that the Vikings were the first Europeans to set foot in Minnesota. He is praised for his discovery but soon controversy erupts and his life is turned upside down with claims of “Fake! Fraud! Liar!” Step back in time and enjoy the ride with this whimsical, World Premiere rock ‘n roll musical. Rock on!!
