Beginning in 1988, Michael Kenna photographed the Nazi concentration and extermination camps.

These 88 images resonate a greater truth that challenges our collective conscience to avoid repeating this dark and sinister part of human history.

You are invited to the nuptials of Buzz and Alma Gahner.  But don’t expect a typical wedding party.  The groom is late for the reception, and Alma is sick and tired of the negative influence of her new father-in-law.  Granny can’t remember what year it is, and Alma’s mom is terrified of desserts –including the wedding cake.  Ike, the wedding coordinator, is determined to keep everything running smoothly, but when a surprise guest makes an appearance, it all falls to hilarious pieces.  Be prepared to dance the chicken dance, catch the bouquet, or carry out a corpse during this deadly reception.


Peddler’s Pub is open to receive guests at 7:00 p.m. while guests should arrive by 7:30 for dinner.  Act I, of the show, begins at 8:00—dinner is served during intermission—followed by Act II—and dessert.  Guests arrive in the lobby of the Cock ‘n Bull Restaurant and are taken to the Pub.
