The 50th ticket bought will be upgraded to a VIP ticket!!

'What does a VIP ticket include?' I hear you ask. Well, you'll get a goodie bag, a photo op with the cast of Garters of the Galaxy: vol 2 before the show, front and second row seats, AND you'll be able to go into the draw to win a very special raffle prize!!

If you'd prefer to buy general admission tickets, you'll still get to enjoy the show, have fun, and get to watch some cosmically talented performers! But maybe you'll also be the lucky 50th ticket and get a free upgrade, too!

This Saturday, we're blasting off! It's almost time for you to join us on our intergalactic journey. But wait! Every crew needs a captain, every cast needs an emcee. Guess that means it's time to meet our emcee for the evening, it's Starlord, aka Haute Dish!

Through his pelvic sorcery, you will be hooked on a feeling. He’ll take you on a journey with the legendary Garters of the Galaxy! This Starlord will bring a bit of spice, but don’t worry, he’ll still be serving up his signature Midwestern flair you know, love, and can’t get enough of!

Tickets are selling fast, and you do not want to miss out on this cosmic adventure! Get your tickets to 'Garters of the Galaxy: vol 2' now!
