ALL SHOWS ARE SOLD OUT!
Unclaimed tickets or standing room spaces may be sold before the show begins, and will be sold on a first-come, first-served basis. We cannot guarantee that everyone will be accommodated (in all reality — probably about 10 tickets). A line will form outside the theater before the event. Note that staff will not be at the venue until 6:15pm each night.
Because of this overwhelming response, we are planning an encore presentation in the upcoming months. Please leave join our email list (on the bottom of this screen,) and we will inform you of dates, and offer priority ticketing.
TICKET HOLDERS: You may pick up your tickets at the theater before show time.
