They don’t have a rain check policy so they kept my money and didn’t try to switch dates with me. Bump that. Won’t let that happen again. That would have been my first time going.

Oh, my goodness. Go for the costumes. Go for the dance. Go for the singing. Go for the dancing in the aisles. A George Clintonesque combo of sci fi, freewheeling dance, and good old erotic fun. A little history thrown in, but just basically fun! I wish I had known about this theater sooner! Love in the aisles!
