Ring in the New Year with a Burlesque Extravaganza at Penobscot Theatre Company
Penobscot Theatre Company will ring in the new year with a sizzling show that harkens back to the glory days of Gypsy Rose Lee and evokes the glamour of a bygone era. It's Too Darn Hot: A Vintage Burlesque Extravaganza will be at the historic Bangor Opera House for two performances only, December 31, at 6:00 pm and 9:00 pm.
