My Favorite Pair: Left and right. Up and down. Soup and sandwich. Day and night. A pair of dice, a pair of aces, a pair to draw two. Mutt and Jeff, Burns and Allen, Abbott and Costello. Yin and Yang. Red high heels! It is certainly true that good things -- or, at least, interesting things -- come in pairs.

Join us at Hipbone Studio this fall as PST regulars Lynne Duddy, Lawrence Howard and Penny Walter regale you with true, personal tales about their favorite pairs. A pair of brand new penny loafers does unexpected damage to the locker room bully; a young girl longs for her very own pair of roller skates; a women gets the red shoes she wanted, but will she find a way to dance to her own tune? 

We are very lucky to have our favorite improv performers, The Tuesday Group, opening the show. We have no idea what they're going to do, but we do know it's going to be great. Or, at least, unpredictable...

Join us when the doors open at 7:30 p.m. for complimentary light snacks, beverages for purchase, and socializing. Performance begins at 8 p.m. sharp. Space is limited, so reserve your seats now. See you there!
