I think the effect is best when left untold. So I'd tell my family and friends, "Just go." But for people who pay much attention to hygiene, give it a second thought. :)And I want to thank the audience who participated the show on June 27 because your "bravery" made the show truly incredible.

Sam Jaffe's photographs are beautiful. His compositions of Massachusetts Caterpillars along with their host plants are striking and elegant and can stand alone as works of art. The compositions are all set against a black background and are printed in a large format. The images reveal to us a diverse population of creatures to be found right here in Massachusetts, that we rarely observe . They are beautiful in their detail and ingenious in their evolutionary development. Sam's macro photography never disguises the subject matter but reveals its complexity to be admired. Each photograph is accompanied by a brief biological description which is well worth reading, and if you are fortunate to find the artist on site you will learn much more! Collapse

I have been a few times and it's never quite the same show twice. Really funny, highly recommended! Just checked out the "You're a Good Man, Scott Brown" show and it was great as well. It reminded me how much I love their regular sketch comedy and improv shows. A great place to take a date as well, not that expensive and you can always enjoy a laugh and a drink! Collapse
