TWG Weekly Update
Tonight is the last Monday night of TWG for a while. Come see this fantastic show before it hits the road to be part of Gilda’s Club’s LAUGHFEST in Grand Rapids, Michigan. This appearance in BOM Company Member Brandon Cloyd’s home town promises to bring Marshmallows, Toilet Bunnies and Little Fat Hurtfuls to an unsuspecting crowd.
Please join us to see this classic tale rejoin the TWG lineup:
Stupid
By Eddie C Columbia Explorers Academy
One day a kid said to me you’re stupid so I wondered if I really was stupid so then my friend told me that I’m not stupid so he came with me to tell me again that I was stupid so then a bigger kid said him a bad word so I told that kid to stupid and he hit me in my ear and I was bleeding so the kid that called me stupid said thanks for standing up for me so he became my friend and I still have the mark from where he hit me and the tall tall kid had detention for a week and their parent took with me and I told them what happened so his mom told me that he was going to get grounded.
Say “a bad word”—those words exactly, please—to Kassi at the Box Office for a discounted ticket.
And remember…TWG goes Matinee beginning March 11. Come to the Neo at 2 p.m. on SUNDAYS beginning 3/11/12. Monday night TWG shows resume April 23, the Monday after BIG PROM.
