Buntport Presents: MAGNETS ON THE FRIDGE # NEW DENVER Season 2
by BWW News Desk - January 10, 2019
Last season Buntport brought Magnets on the Fridge, their original hit live sit-com, back to the stage after a many year hiatus. The gang has gotten older and is trying to negotiate living in a rapidly growing city. It's all very silly. Now they are back for another season.    Based, in part, on book suggestions from the audience at the episode before, each episode is a ridiculous romp through the minds of the Buntport ensemble, featuring guest appearances from local performers. Last season included guest spots from Karen Slack, Jon Brown, Lulu Scully, and regular appearances from Evan Weissman of Warm Cookies of the Revolution. This season Buntport will be collaborating with even more folks!   Come see some live 'tv' before going home to binge-watch Netflix!
