A production of the Broadway musical Teddy & Alice presented by the Dickinson State University Blue Hawk Theatre Guild-Badlands Opera Project in partnership with the Theodore Roosevelt Center and funded in part by an ND250 Grant.
Timed to coincide with the opening of the Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library and America’s 250th anniversary, this production celebrates Theodore Roosevelt’s legacy through music, history, and live performance in the heart of the Badlands.
The project brings together professional, regional, and community artists from across North Dakota and the Upper Midwest, blending historical scholarship with vibrant theatrical storytelling. The production highlights Roosevelt’s relationship with his daughter Alice, the spirit of the Progressive Era, and the enduring cultural significance of the Badlands to American identity.
This celebration is free and open to the public (with advance registration), ensuring broad access for families, educators, students, visitors, and lifelong learners. Educational programming, historical interpretation, and community engagement events will accompany the performances throughout the week.
