WHAT IS IT ABOUT?

Karen Finley, the most controversial woman in performance today, follows up her acclaimed Off-Broadway engagement and subsequent world tour of Shut Up and Love Me with the World Premiere of her latest work, Make Love.

The Oct 12 performance -- Columbus Day Weekend -- is at 9:30pm.
