Good Eggs
The Virginia Avenue Project
The Miles Playhouse
Friday & Saturday at 7:30 pm
Sunday at 3:00 pm

The Virginia Avenue Project uses the arts the help kids realize their full potential. As a result, 100% of the kids in their program graduate from high school, 90% go on to college and one of their alumni is currently working in the West Wing of the White House. The crux of the Project's work lies in the creation of plays which the kids perform with professional actors in front of a live audience. The shows are always great fun with frequent bursts of the kind of genius and insight that you can only find in youth. And with $5 tickets, you really can't go wrong.
