OPENING NIGHT GALA FOR THE BILLY-CLUB PUPPETS

July 5, 8pm

The Imaginists present an Opening Night Gala premiering The Billy-Club Puppets. Ticket price includes performance, tamales, Lagunitas and merriment. Poor Rosita--what's a girl to do? Cocoliche is her sweetheart, but her buffoon of a father insists on marrying her off to rich old Cristobita, fat as a full moon, whose billy-club stinks of brains. But wait: here comes an old flame fresh off the boat, still pining for pretty Rosita. The air is thick with love, hate, songs of the Andalusian hills-and the audience's laughter!  All proceeds benefit The Art is Medicine Show and The Billy-Club Puppets summer tour. theimaginists.org
