The 701 Coworking Space is excited to host the regional premiere of Carbon Monoxide, a musical written by Grand Forks' Roberto Kerry. Opening night is tomorrow, and limited tickets are available for the weekend run. Get yours now!

3 coworkers are staying late to finish a project for their Marketing Firm. Unbeknownst to them, they are suffering from the effects of Carbon Monoxide poisoning. As they dive deeper into their hallucinations, they begin to wonder why it is they work so hard.

This new musical comedy made its New York City Debut last year, and has made its way to Grand Forks! April 16, 17, 18 at the 701 Coworking Space, at 7PM each night. Don't miss the only musical that's a gas!
