on the campus of the
University of Oregon,

in
Eugene, Oregon,
at
13th & University.

7:00 PM was the fantastic showtime.

Wondering who was wonderfully performing?

Callooh! Callay! It was foretold and it came to pass---

The
frumious
TICKETS
were available
at these fandibulous places
(and we thank them for it)--

Did Amanda give up aerial activities to save the ozone layer?

(No)

Could Mildred Hodiddle keep her undies covered?

(No)

Howl this show be over before midnight? ...one might have wondered...

(No)
(Well, Yes, it was, actually, but we try to be consistent)

The usual hyperbolically Swell Time™ was had by all.
