Due to the incredible demand for seats at this event, the show will be moving from the Scottish Rite theater into the Roanoke Civic Center Auditorium!  Over 2000 comfortable seats, premium sound by Dewey Peters and Wayne Weikel of Catawba Sound, and the second floor mezzanine grille & bar WILL BE OPEN for food, drinks, and ABC!  So come early, plan to spend the day, and help us to raise a ton for Herschel & Joyce!
