Almost 1,400 members and friends enjoyed MinnPost’s seventh annual variety show on April 25 at the Historic State Theatre. Hundreds crowded into Rock Bottom Brewery for the pre-show party. Joining regular performers like Sen. Al Franken, former state Sen. Amy Koch and Gov. Mark Dayton were comedian Lizz Winstead, VocalEssence and University of Minnesota President Eric Kaler among others. MinnPost contributing photographer Jana Freiband captured the evening.
