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). So, we have to cancel tonight’s performance.

BUT we’ll be back to normal in the freshly heated theater tomorrow night and from here on out.
