SUMMARY:Pandora Productions presents YETI FOR LOVE | Theatrical Performance (multiple dates)
DESCRIPTION:Yeti For Love is a sex positive holiday romp in the campy\, queer style of Louisville playwright Brian David Walker\, directed by Gil Reyes. \nLooking for a little love and human connection this holiday season? So is Yeticus Brown\, the Activities Director at the Lighthouse Community Senior Living Home. By day\, our hero is single-handedly trying to produce the residents’ beloved annual holiday show (inspired by the claymation classic about a reindeer). By night\, he’s looking for love in the beds of men who are suspiciously reminiscent of certain animated misfits. His worlds collide when he inadvertently hires sex workers as actors\, including an attractive\, no-nonsense bear named Bear. Can Yeti give his heart to a sex worker? Will his boss fire him? Will the seniors have their holiday tradition? It’s going to take a little holiday magic and a lot of love to pull this one off! Luckily he’s ready… er\, um… YETI for it. \nFeaturing Corey Music\, Keith McGill\, Bailey Preston\, Carol Schorr\, Sean Childress\, Ian Fitzgerald\, Vidalia Unwin\, Peyton Robbins\, and Michael Guarnieri \nAudiences are encouraged to arrive an hour before the show starts to participate in holiday crafts\, wear an ugly/fabulous holiday sweater or outfit for a chance to win a prize\, and enjoy holiday treats in the lobby before the show and during intermission. This play contains sexual content\, nudity\, and simulated sexual acts\, and is reserved for audiences ages 18+. \nSponsored by Advantage Investment Management \n  \n***Description from eventbrite
