Matt: Yes, Sally, as much as I love you I have to tell you that we're into the last weekend of this great show.

Hanging out at Talley’s Tiki, the bar here at Dune Arts Summer Theatre! Tiki bar with Bluegrass music!

Not all the fireworks are outside! Heading into the second weekend for a Talley's Folly at the Dunes Arts Summer Theatre. Located in beautiful Michiana Shores just east of Michigan City. This theater in the woods is air-conditioned, has a cash bar, and you can pre-order dinner before the show, but you have to do that in advanced when you buy your tickets online. Come on out and enjoy a great show and support some local theater.

Slight update about the dinner at the theater. Apparently when you buy your tickets, you need to order your dinner then so they need 48 hours advance notice to put your order in. So if you want to do food and show remember to order ahead 

Let's fall in love.
Hey everyone time to head out and support some local theater. This is a fabulous production of a Pulitzer Prize winning play, Talley's Folly. It is a very smart and witty love story. The show runs for the next three weekends in the Dune Arts Summer Theatre in Michiana Shores(just east of Michigan City.) The theater is air-conditioned, there's a cash/card tiki bar and if you come in early, at 6pm Friday and Saturday there's a food truck for pre-show dinner! What a great way to spend an evening at a theater in the woods!

Had a fun time producing this video on EATING BUGS for Get Healthy magazine. Watch if you dare! Or just get ready for a crunchy good snack…

Get Healthy: If the idea of eating them doesn't bug you, cicadas, crickets, grasshoppers and more Suzy Lyttle, of the Forest Preserve District of Will County, eats cicadas while discussing their sustainable and nutritional benefits.

From the early days in Chicago. My studio was the dining room in our apartment. Stephen was an actor at Second City who needed some headshots right away for a big audition. Glad to see we're both still in business.
