Funny you don't do a Sat Mat., it's our most subscribed show.  Then again 
our theatre is in the LA area and weekday traffic being what it is we try
to 
squeeze as many shows as possible into the weekend:  Fri @[EMAIL PROTECTED]
 8, Sat @[EMAIL PROTECTED]
 4 and
8, 
Sun @[EMAIL PROTECTED]
 2 and 7.

Cheers
