To Be Continued...presents a salute to Married With Children take 2!
Friday, March 11 · 7:00pm - 8:00pm
Location Magnet Theater
We had so much fun the first time, we're bringing back our episode of "Married With Children"! So get your Woo! on and come out to The Magnet Theater for one more night of pure Bundy.
At every To Be Continued show we pay tribute to classic TV from the 80's and 90's with stories, regalia and a brand-new episode written just for you. If you love TV but are tired of the same old reruns, then To Be Continued was made for you.
And as always the Champagne Challenge is in effect--should you bring any cast member of "Married With Children" to the show, you will receive a complimentary bottle of champagne.

SATURDAY GRINDHOUSE MADNESS w/ JOHN WATERS "MONDO TRASHO"
Saturday, March 12 · 5:00pm - 9:00pm
Location Don Pedro
An afternoon of sleaze and grease with cult-famed Baltimore director John Waters. A predecessor to "Pink Flamingoes," "Mondo Trasho" has some feathery elements that can be seen in his later film. The black and white 16mm film is comprised of songs that Waters claims to have taken from his record collection and features Mary Vivian Pearce, a hippy degenerate "shrimper," fantasies of hitchhikers and Cinderella, and of course the fabulous Divine.
Clips from the documentary "Divine Trash" and a John Waters short will be shown prior to the main feature.
