WALNUT GROVE For three weekends each July, Walnut Grove hosts the outdoor amphitheater production of the Wilder Pageant, sharing stories of Laura Ingalls Wilder’s childhood years on the southwest Minnesota prairie through “Fragments of a Dream.”
A trio of Jackson siblings is, for the sixth consecutive year, cast in the production. Not only do the children of Justin and Amber Lessman get to perform, they have leading roles.
