Folks put on their winter gear and joined us for the first performance of the Happy Frogtown Project!Showtimes: 2pm & 4pm on Saturday February 6
Pay-What-You-Can Performance location: OUTDOORS at the Frogtown Sledding Hill (at the Frogtown Park and Farm) HAPPY HOT CHOCOLATE was a Family-Friendly outdoor winter variety show, featuring ridiculous comedy acts and physical routines. Audiences were treated to hot chocolate and got to decide which acts got to continue, and which acts got THE SLED (think "the hook, but instead of a hook they get shoved down the hill on a sled). |
