Last November Trones and Mikkelsen traveled to London for the UK premiere of their original script, 3 Way, which played to rave reviews here in the Twin Cities last summer. John has written and produced his signature holiday show, John Trones, Christmas in the City, for the past six years every December at the Pantages Theatre in Minneapolis, and that show is set to return again this year with special guest, Jim Brickman.
