We're sorry you felt the response you were given was stinky. Our website is the best place to see what shows are coming to the theater and to purchase tickets online so we always try to communicate that with our patrons. Unfortunately, we do not have any shows or events August 18-20th. The homepage only lists a few of the upcoming shows. If you click on the event calendar button, you will see the full listing of shows and can filter those by month or by type. We appreciate your interest in our events and hope to see you soon
