Audiences go on a hilarious and interactive ride as a pair of married relationship experts equally explore and appreciate the differences between men and women.

Adding to the fun that evening will be a celebration of the theater’s 93rd birthday, with cake at intermission. The Holland first opened its doors to the public on Feb. 12, 1931.
