Mark is a friend of ours who helped bring attention to the economic devastation that was imposed on small taverns by the State of Minnesota. Mark continues to defend Theater Nights, and we strongly support and thank Mark for all of his hard work.

BtBMN Co-Chair Sheila Kromer and Mark worked together to kick off the first Theatre Night at Barnacles in February of 2008. It was a huge success, and here is a video of the event:

Barnacles revenues rebounded, along with many other bars that hosted Theater Night. But, the corrupt Minnesota Department of Health was angered by this, and threatened bars with a $10,000 fine. Many bars signed “agreements” that they would no longer host Theater Nights, but bars such as Barnacles, The Bullseye Saloon, and many other persisted, in an effort to defend our liberties, and to keep their businesses viable.

Theater nights are currently on hold, because of a series of court proceedings, and an upcoming appeal. The legal brief filed by Mark Benjamin can be found by clicking here. With Mark’s devotion to this issue, we are expecting a positive outcome.

BtBMN wants to sincerely thank Mark Benjamin for all of his passion, drive, and tenacity to restore a liberty that was stripped from Minnesota business owners in 2007. Thank you, Mark!!
