A “Boogie” is a show where we play spoken word or children’s albums, and act them out onstage (going by the mindset of the children we were when we first heard them)
Monster Boogie is another vinyl-strewn romp through spoken word albums of the past, and this time, we’re taking on horror, because you always save the best for last!
Ghosts, vampires, werewolves, serial killers, and the working-class heroes who bust them. This is your last chance to Boogie.
Opening Friday February 12th and running Thursday, Friday, Saturday at 8PM until Saturday March 5th.
Broom Street Theater announces its first show of the 2016 season, The 800th Annual Salvation Swing-Off, a biblical romp about bureaucracy and the great beyond, written and directed by Malissa Petterson.
To break up the monotony of soul-cleansing in Purgatory’s laundromat, inbetweeners are given the opportunity to compete for a golden ticket to the Greater Side: in a good, old-fashioned dance-a-thon. As couples rival for immediate rapture, the angels cope with the afterlife business beadledom while red tape, misplaced coversheets, and pin-up she-devils stand by to throw a red sock in with the bleach load. All in an eternity’s work.
The 800th Annual Salvation Swing-Off opens Friday, January 8th and runs Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays through January 30th.

anchors what has become a thriving artistic community in Mineral Point today.
