Don't Forget See.Hear.Speak.Two, the 3 day comedy festival happening at Coldtowne Theater starting tonight.

Information Here

Unfortunately, the freezing weather got the best of The Off Center’s heating system. The Rudes are on the case, but repairs can’t be made until tomorrow (due to a shortage of parts because of the freeze, so we come full circle).

Therefore, we must cancel tonight’s performance of A Beautiful View.

BUT we’ll be back to normal in the freshly heated theater tomorrow night with IN ON IT at 8 PM and A BEAUTIFUL VIEW at 10 PM.

Saturday, January 20 – IN ON IT at 8 PM and A BEAUTIFUL VIEW at 10 PM

Sunday, January 21 – IN ON IT at 8 PM

Thursday, January 25 – A BEAUTIFUL VIEW at 8 PM

Friday, January 26 – IN ON IT at 8 PM and A BEAUTIFUL VIEW at 10 PM

Saturday, January 27 – IN ON IT at 8 PM and A BEAUTIFUL VIEW at 10 PM

Sunday, January 28 – IN ON IT at 8 PM

Thursday, February 1 – Saturday, February 3 – A BEAUTIFUL VIEW at 8 PM

We apologize for the inconvenience. The shows are great and we can’t wait to show them to you. But we want you to be comfortable and warm when we do. So, we hope to see you soon.
