Details
“Hope is a musical thing. From the makers of 'Hunger Games: The Musical' and 'Die Hard: The Musical-ish', comes an all new musical based on the classic prison drama, 'The Shawshank Redemption'. Follow Andy Dufresne as he navigates the Shawshank prison system along with Red and the gang, while singing parodies of the greatest hits from the incomparable Johnny Cash. Laugh, cry, and tap your feet as we respectfully ridicule the film that is still rated #1 on IMDb.com. Don't miss out!” This is the closing night (afternoon!) for this event. It begins at 3:35pm but it’s general seating so we’ll want to arrive a bit early for good seats. Hope to see you there! 🙏

Sandbar is good. And The Dockside has a great patio.
Lee
Thanks Natasha. Let’s head over to the Dockside. It’s right near Performance Works. I’ll make a reservation once we get a rough sense of the size of our group.
Tallia
This is such a great suggestion. I’m looking forward to it. Dockside or sandbar sound great to me.
Glen
Thanks for organizing this Lee! :) I just bought my ticket, and I'd recommend everyone else to do so if they haven't already since tickets will run out. I also decided to go with a Fringe pass since I plan to go to other shows as well.
Lee
Alright folks…we have a reservation for eight people at the Dockside @ 5:15pm. We’re booked in the patio but they will have a space reserved for us inside as well in the case of inclement weather. For large groups, it is a single bill and an 18% gratuity. I don’t mind paying the bill and squaring up with everyone afterwards.
Glen
Great, thanks Lee!
Tallia
Thanks for doing that Lee. Ticket booked!
Lee
