unique mash-up of circus, physical comedy and clown theatre, and
Echolalia and Temptation is their new show, opening at BATS next
week! Since it's about vice and temptation, to be in to win a
double pass to opening night simply tell me that one bad habit
you simply can't break. I'm a compulsive fingernail biter...

Congrats to Marilyn Duckworth who will be joining us for the
opening of Hamlet Dies at the End. Awesome.

Congrats also to last weeks winner Anne Bernadette who hopefully
enjoyed checking out Thricely? Precisely. last week
