They will tear through ALL the decades with The Girls—right up to the present—vocally channeling the Chordettes, the Angels, the Dixie Cups, Wilson Phillips, the Harlettes, the Roches, Destiny’s Child, and so many more. Full of laughs and surprises, this tender and utterly unique holiday evening of beloved music is one that you won’t want to miss! Tickets are just $20 + a 2-drink minimum.
