Did you see A Broken Umbrella‘s performance of iMarvel at Westville’s ArtWalk last weekend? Well we did and it was super duper fantastic. Super Duper! So super duper that we sang “We are the marvelllllls…” all the way home (no lie). And guess what I just found out…they might be performing iMarvel again in September! I know, September seems so far away especially since summer is what’s really on our minds but I was just so excited, I had to tell you. So if you love outdoor theatre, or just enjoy having home-grown, feel-good, family-friendly entertainment – cross your fingers they bring iMarvel back. Mine are definitely crossed.
