Come see Wink by Jen Silverman at 7:30 PM on MONDAY, JULY 8TH at Second Thought Theatre. Enjoy refreshments from Whiskers & Soda before the show, experience the wacky dark comedy, and still have time to catch the fireworks!

Wink by Jen Silverman, directed by Jenna Burnett - Sofie is an unhappy housewife. Gregor is her bread-winning husband. Dr. Frans is their psychiatrist. Wink is the Cat. And Gregor has just skinned the cat…but Wink vows for revenge. Violent desires, domestic terrorism, and feline vengeance at any cost make WINK a dark comedy about the thin, thin line between savagery and civilization.
