Event
Betty Odessa
The farmer and the cowman should be friends. All the stars will tell the story of our love and all its glory.
In ancient times, physicians had a dual role: one to cure, the other was to kill.
The first recorded use of the word euthanasia was by a Roman historian named Suetonius.
Kev Berrys Betty Odessa is the chilling story of the 1961 Kiss and Kill Murder in Ector County, Texas.
Everything will look different.
Tickets for this production cost $10 when purchased online through Brown Paper Tickets or $15 at the door.
