The Pumpkin Pie Show: Commencement
by Clay McLeod Chapman
featuring Hanna Cheek
Now entering its second decade of critically acclaimed performances, this season’s edition of The Pumpkin Pie Show explores the bond formed between three women in the wake of a high school tragedy.
A literary fist in the face. Part monologue, part boxing match -- THE PUMPKIN PIE SHOW is a rigorous storytelling session packed with enough intensity to feel like a rock concert rather than a bedtime tale.
October 15-31
Thursdays- Saturdays @ 8pm
