I'll bump this for you, Dave.

When Gene and I met with some of the good folks from Yellow Tape a couple of months ago and they told us about this show, I got really excited. I can't wait - it sounds fantastic!

I saw this last night. Very fun. You should go check it out. Dave is hilarious (and costumed ridiculously!). And the whole cast should be glommed into the improv scene. They're really funny. Recommended.

FREE TONIGHT ONLY

Post by Dave »

Because, as it turns out, Yellow Tape isn't, in fact, more important than that international music and film festival going on downtown, our reservations are a little light tonight. We're good for tomorrow and beyond, but because playing to small audiences blows fat chunks, we'd like you to invite all your friends to tonight's show FOR FREE.

It's our way of giving back. Kind of.

The secret phrase is "I'm a preferred audience member." Or, as suggested by Dakota, "I demand satisfaction." Either one will get your friends in for free to tonight only (Friday, March 16th).

Spread the word! Free theatre for all! Waaaaahooo!!!

Shake it like a Polaroid,
Jonathon

From Morgan, to me, just now, as a friend of Yello Tape:
Tonight's show (sat) is free with the "shannon mccormick discount" tell anyone and everyone
That's what I know. Between SXSW and Madeline and Jeremy's party, I'm sure your dance cards are filled. But I do recommend this show and also I recommend free stuff. So go see it if you have time.
