Audience response to “DIAL M FOR MURDER” has been absolutely THRILLING (we know, we know, but we couldn’t help ourselves)! Take a peak at what they’re saying in response to one of our most sumptuous and electrifying shows!
Happy Opening to all of the artists involved in creating Cabinet of Curiosities! This fascinating exhibit opens tonight! Join us for a reception from 6-8pm. Here is our Visual Arts Director, Nicole discussing why this is so unique and why you won't want to miss out on all of the curious moments in this exhibit!
Special shoutout to all of our amazing volunteers for installing this remarkable exhibit!
Dial M!
We got Artistic Director Zach Stolz to sit still long enough to talk about our Season of Wonder opener - DIAL M FOR MURDER! Give it a view to hear some of the insight and plans behind how this show ended up in our season, and what the audience can expect! (And maybe a terrible joke as well)
DIAL M FOR MURDER opens this Friday, August 16th, and runs until September 1st!
