Third weekend with two sold out shows! We had several returning audience members, one of whom brought the cast and crew very sweet show gifts and handwritten notes. It's hard to put into words how incredible it has been to have such wonderful positive reviews but also the friends we've gained through this experience. We are officially completely sold out for our final weekend! Thank you to everyone for supporting your local theater!

✨️ Fun Fact ✨️In the 1st act, the collision at sea that they are referring to is the collision involving the British Royal Navy battleship HMS Victoria, which was accidentally rammed and sunk by her sister ship HMS Camperdown on June 22, 1893. This is an actual print of the cover of a newspaper that covered the story at the time. We love attention to detail! Come see Poison Pen at Boise Acting Studio the next 3 weekends!

Last night was incredible! Another great audience with a fabulous Q&A at the end! One of the benefits of a smaller theater is that you really get to feel like you're a part of the show! Only 10 tickets left for this afternoon's matinee!
