Maddock Opera House, 114 Central Ave Maddock, ND
Join us at the Maddock Opera House on Thursday, April 9th, 2026, at 7 p.m. for an unforgettable evening as we launch the "Celebrating America 250 in our Community" and Maddock’s 125th Celebration. We are proud to feature Joe Wiegand, the world’s premier Theodore Roosevelt reprisor, to honor a legacy deeply woven into our local history. From Michael Maddock’s historic horseback journey to meet TR—resulting in our community’s first post office—to Roosevelt’s enduring "North Dakota Pioneer" spirit, this performance bridges our local roots with the national American narrative. Don't miss this chance to celebrate our heritage, our 125-year journey, America's 250 years, and the rugged spirit that built our home.
Performing as Theodore Roosevelt, Joe Wiegand will share stories from T.R.'s lifetime. From battling asthma and taking boxing lessons as a young boy, to battling the special interests as President of the United States, Joe brings Theodore Roosevelt to life with energy, intelligence and wit, reminiscent of the original. Following a 45 minute presentation, Joe will take questions from the audience as T.R.
