I am eager to discuss the show with Maplewood folk–and others–who have seen it, or took part in it. Those who would like to join me are welcome to come to Stone Spiral Coffee and Curios from 5-6 pm on Thursday, September 22. Enjoy fine food, drink, and conversation~~~Phyllis (aka Ms Bottom)
Sadly, opening night has to be postponed–do come Saturday or Sunday at 8–or earlier, to enjoy the food and music at the Sutton Loop Park. The show is free–a fun frolic with a profound theme and allusions to Maplewood now and then–and you will probably recognize someone in the cast or band–I love the original script and music!!!!
Best to bring your own!!!
will there be chairs or do you bring your own?
Milla, They encourage people to bring their own chairs. Though some will be available first come first serve.
