I've been acting since I retired (first chance I got - post-high school, since life kept me very busy until I retired). This is my 4th show.

Our first three performances of Disaster have just finished. There are 6 more (3 on each of the next two weekends).

So I guess you could fly/drive in - but probably not realistic.
