Here's an incredibly inventive and entertaining piece of theater, live music and strange goings-on, so pull up a chair and whet your whistle—because this show is performed live at the Harrison Opera House Black Box Theatre. And in this pub-within-the-pub setting, you'll see unfold the story of Prudencia Hart, an uptight academic whose serious research into ancient Scottish ballads is drawn astray by those who sing them best…with a glass or two of whisky. "Wildly entertaining! Patrons beware: Attending this show may result in you getting kissed, asked to join in a song, or worse. But it's all in good fun" (Washingtonian Magazine).
