"Theatrical disasters are the source of many a comedy." Sneezing corpses, a drunk techie and the ultimate wardrobe malfunction... Brittany Duncan directs this cast of crazy people. This tiny gem will be over before you know it, or whenever the techie turns out the lights. For reservations, call 522-5225. This is a Maverick Players membership production and 2010 season memberships will be accepted for admission. Individual admission tickets are $8 on Thursdays and Sundays and $12 on Fridays and Saturdays. An opening night reception is planned as usual.
