We had a dynamite audience at the matinee show by 4th Wall Ensemble today (March 30th)! How do describe a 4th Wall Ensemble performance? Hmmm…um, well there are hoverboards. And classical music. And dancing while playing classical music. And a flute and a trombone… it’s impossible to describe so come and check it out for yourself! Tickets will be available at the door Friday, March 31st starting at 6:30pm. We are not going to let weather stop the show from going on!! This is spring weather in Wisconsin - wait a minute and it will change.
