About Kristine Holmgren

Her first stage play PAPER DADDY premiered in 2012 at the Northfield Arts Guild in Northfield, Minnesota, and her second, SWEET TRUTH enjoys a world premier in June, 2013 at the Berlin Theatre in Columbia, Missouri.

Plays by Kristine

Paper Daddy -

What is the role of a 21st Century father?

Set in Northfield, Minnesota, this play explores the transformation of Charlie Pomeroy, ex-wife of the late, great Franklin Pomeroy, former Dean of Carleton College.

Her dead husband’s ashes are in a box on her kitchen table; her daughter is coming home to participate in a memorial for a man they both hate.

A shocking announcement and a surprise mourner change everything – and Charlie learns more than she bargained for about her marriage, her future, and the ties that bind.

World premiere, Northfield Arts Guild, April 2012.

God Girl

Princeton Theological Seminary, 1976. The war in Vietnam is over, the women’s liberation movement is in full swing, and idealistic Kris Holmgren wants to be a Presbyterian minister. Dorm life features Episcopalian men who surprise her in the shower, and her field education supervisor seems interested in training her in more than mere ministry. Will she survive the cynical, sinister secrets of her new career?

Chosen for RAW STAGES and performed:

Monday, 7 PM January 7th

Minnesota History Theatre.

Sweet Truth

Bernice is about to turn fifty. Her cupcake shop is struggling, her fourteen-year-old daughter is on a body-piercing binge and all the men she meets are sick, bad, crazy or stupid.

Will a visit from her mother, a seventy-year-old Druid priestess, change anything?

Wisdom, forgiveness and the true lessons of life and death confront Bernice in this comedy.
