Tickets & Info – www.1000islandsplayhouse.com
Tonight, Friday 6th August, on the deck at Springer theatre 1000 islands playhouse.
$20 ticket ( I know it’s good fish but a bit pricey maybe for a fish/chips buffet?) and no kid pricing, so not really a good start to the Family Friendly Up The Creek festival ??
