SUMMARY:The New Main Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Something To Wine About hosted by Laurie Forster\, The Wine Coach\nTV personality\, award-winning sommelier and comedian Laurie Forster delivers an edgy\, off-beat hilarious show where wine meets punchline. Using her down to earth approach to “wine education\,” Forster peels back the labels of a few of her favorite wines while she exposes some the deep secrets of the wine industry and why she thinks it’s so damn funny! \nForster leaves no stone unturned when it comes to talking about wine and why we like it. Maybe you love the full body of a Malbec or the crisp acidity of a Pinot Grigio. Who knows? Who cares? But by the end of this show three things are certain. You are confident about what you like\, exhausted from laughing and completely relaxed. \nTicket price includes wine tasting and light appetizers.
