‘Twas the week before winter break, 

Should we go home to bed? 

 

Fear not as our team worked, 

we searched around Google, 

for another show to see, 

‘Striking 12’, an off-beat musical! 

 

So onwards we traveled, 

to the hotel in the Twin Cities, 

We enjoyed dinner at Fogo De Chao,

Then across town, yippy skippies! 

 

In a small theatre under the tower, 

We found the crew, and met the ticket master, 

They said that the show was sure to impress, 

So our excitement grew, and the time went faster. 

 

The cast was enticing, 

the show a delight, 

We all agree, 

It was quite a great night! 

 

On the way out of town,

For culture and knowledge,

A stop at the Minneapolis Institute of Arts, 

Then northbound with great mileage. 

 

So never you worry, 

and never you fret,

When you are flexible with plans, 

You’ll get better than you bet!
