Somewhere Over The Hangover

Theater, Design Shows and Book Fairs. Oh My!

Since we all need at least a year or two to detox after The Black Party last weekend, this week we’re pushing events that’ll bring back wholesome goodness to our souls before we declare moral bankruptcy and (de)file Chapter 11.

There’s No Place Like Homo
The Wizard of Oz
Tonight – Sunday, April 5
Friends of Dorothy should follow the Yellow Brick Road for this lavish stage production that celebrates the iconic 1939 MGM film. Breathtaking special effects, dazzling choreography and classic songs will surely transport you to the Wonderful Wizard of Ahhhhhs.
