Mayday! Underground is Tomorrow!

Woohoo! The holiday edition of Mayday! Underground is tomorrow. Be sure to stop by early if you want one of the free swag bags we’re handing out- 25 each morning! Plus we’ll have free prize giveaways every hour, on the hour, limited edition tote bags for sale, tastings by Honeoye Falls Distillery, and the Rochester Broadway Theatre League will be on site, and you can purchase tickets for any of their shows without having to go to the box office!

The show is located at the Village Gate. Click HERE for maps and photos of the venue.

Also, we’ve felt a lot of love for our local sponsors: RBTL, Little Button, Salena’s, Nox, Hana Pilates & Bodyworks, Peppermint, and the Hungerford.

RBTL is committed to education both in and out of the classroom. Thousands of students from the Rochester City School District and schools from as far as Seneca and Wyoming counties, find their niche in RBTL’s arts education programs each year. From the “Stars of Tomorrow” High School musical recognition ceremony each spring, to the Dance, Acting, Vocal and Technical “Master Class” programs taught by Touring Broadway actors, to the Broadway summer day camp “Summer Stars” with instructors from NYC, RBTL continues to find outlets for students’ creativity, talent and interest to shine and be explored both in the classroom and on the stage.

RBTL’s mission is to provide opportunities for all people to experience, understand and enjoy the best in arts and performance through its education programs and events.  To fulfill its mission, RBTL strives to offer diverse performances and to make those performances accessible to the broadest possible audience. See website for list of all upcoming events.
