There is a Troupe Family Show this Saturday (October 3rd) in MUB Ballroom A on Tech's Campus. Many people may be interested, since there were 5 current Troupers in Music Man, and Adam (Harold) was a Troupe Alum. We're even doing one or two short bits that are parodies of Music Man Songs. We'd LOVE to have as many Music Man friends there are we could.
The show is in MUB Ballroom A, at 2pm on Saturday October 3rd.
