Not sure if you want to shell out $15 to watch this vaudeville-melodrama-comedy act? Take a gander at what you'll be missing

wondering:
As for your questions -
Q1: Is the new theater nice? A: Nice is a subjective word. In my opinion, yes. Very nice, considering the vast signifigant amount of the work was volunteer labor as well as the significant amount of labor of our contractor at below standard prices. (Minimal cost). It is very impressive when considering all this.
Q2: Any more room? A: Yes. Seating of upto 148. All table seating. Larger stage. Nice back stage. Larger snack bar (to get your popcorn, soda and beer). Still a work in progress. However, a major step has been completed.

Good to hear!
Sitting could get clausterphobic at some of the other venues! Very nice parking arrangements, too, really, especially with the visitor's center right across the street and allowing parking there. With more room they should be able to generate more money. I know most performances were sold out in previous years. May that continue with almost twice the capacity.

I feel extremely lucky that I have a relative in the show, so always attend at LEAST twice each year - once during the season and for the Topsy Turvy...I'm very proud of my Miss Macie! ;D (and yes, she got all the talent in the family!

Guys and Gals switch, and play each other's roles.
