Dolly Wiggler Cabaret 2021
This year’s theme is “Everybody loves Frank!”
Dress your best and show up ready to party. It’s all a big experiment, and we can’t wait to see you guys! Come early, pour yourself a beverage, see who’s there. Visit at the “bar” during intermission, or after the show.
Ticket proceeds cover artist and technician fees, and we thank you for your support!
