Yellowish Blue and Pink – 2 shows
March 12th 7:30pm Tampa and March 13th 2pm St. Pete.
YELLOWISH BLUE & PINK follows the story of a, up until this point, rule-abiding painter who dares to make and accept the color green in a world where the Society of Life Art only supports paintings that are soley blue and pink. It is a direct commentary on the biblical arguments that are made against gay rights as well as a comical glimpse into the courtship of the colors blue and yellow. Tickets are $8 in advance, $10 at the doors. Contact Toli at tolig@metrotampabay.org for more information.
