Starting in July, Perfect Match will be shifting to 8:30pm. This is a new policy the venue is start to stagger the shows in its two theatres. Means we'll start a little later, but means it should be way easier to get to the bar to buy a drink before the show, so it's mostly a win.
This won't effect the run time of the show which will still be about an hour, a little longer normally.
Maddox made an appearance on the show Murder U, a true crime reenactment show, playing a student at a university for deaf-students. To see the episode, click the link below and then go to the bottom of the page to select the "Signs of Murder" episode.
