The PIT to Offer Encore Performance of FRANKIE AND SARAH'S GONE WITH THE WIND FEVER DREAM, 1/24

The Peoples Improv Theater (The PIT) Melodion Theatre present an encore performance of Frankie and Sarah's Gone with the Wind Fever Dream. This added performance will take place January 24 at 9:30pm at The Peoples Improv Theater, 123 E. 24th St, New York, NY 10010. Tickets are $10.

Late one night, two Southern-born gal pals fall asleep while watching Gone with the Wind and find themselves caught in a FEVER DREAM! Join them on a journey of epic proportions as they forge through their fused, Gone-with-the-Wind- saturated subconscious. Part reconstruction, part deconstruction, and part pop culture nonsense...What happens next will be but a dreeeeeeeam remembered (remembered) ((remembered)). Oh god, it's starting already!
