Rehearsals are underway for the annual Bar & Grill show presented by the Austin Young Lawyers Association and benefiting the AYLA Foundation. Bar & Grill is consistently Austin's best value in lawyer themed musical comedies. Unlike the previous two years, Bar & Grill will be divided into a double feature (hence the title). The first act is sketch comedy combined with musical numbers, while the second act is a parody of Little Shop of Horrors.
Here's a description of Bar & Grill: Double Feature from the State Theatre's website:
DOUBLE FEATURE, the 19th Annual Bar & Grill Show, November 11th and 12th, The State Theatre. Each year, attorneys from all over Austin gather to poke fun at the legal profession through a night of musical theater parody. This year, Bar & Grill celebrates its 19th year by holding a 1950’s style “Double Feature.” And what better place to do so than the historic State Theatre? In the first show, a mysterious meteor shower leaves behind an unusual, magical book that teaches lawyers “How to Succeed at Law Without Really Crying.” After intermission, you’ll find yourself smack dab in the middle of a “Legal Shop of Horrors.” Get your tickets now for what promises to be another exciting, hilarious production. All proceeds benefit the Austin Young Lawyers Association Foundation, a nonprofit furthering professional, charitable and educational purposes since 1958.Bar & Grill: Double Feature will be playing at Austin's historic State Theatre on the nights of November 11th and 12th. Tickets for Bar & Grill: Double Feature are available now online.
