The night of the event: Birds-ringmaster Wilder gives the last instructions.


Stage Manager Gretchen takes her last notes.


The show opens with the Trailer. Then, first on stage, after the opening notes, is Lars “Frank” Christoph Mayer in explorer costume, cautioning people about potential threats by mutant Italian birds and aliens.


Christoph is joined by Jen, a.k.a. Trish, on drums and vocals.


Despite the heat, inside and outside, every seat in the audience is taken. People have to stand. We’re sweating like horses but we’re happy to learn from the owner, Jeff, that he never had that many people attending an event here.


Next to join on stage is narrator Arrow. Arrow will help the audience find their way through the bizarre adventures of local couple Frank and Jen.


He probably has the best seat of all, grandmas’ rocking chair. He has beers and a newspaper and seems happy. continue here ->
