The night of the big Audience Choice Awards Show is finally here.  A huge crowd of DC Theatre fans have gathered, hoping to catch a glimpse of their favorite nominees. Television cameras are trained on reporter Rona Slivers at the head of the red carpet, ready to give her usual biting fashion commentary&#8230;But what&#8217;s this?
No taxis? No limos? No stars? Where are all the nominees?
No Hedman, no Hicken, no Hemmingsen?
And what&#8217;s that whispering??? Nancy Robinette has skipped town!?!?
Something doesn&#8217;t smell right here&#8211;and the situation is also strange&#8230;.
Will the curtain on the Audience Choice Awards Show ever go up?
Is this the end of theatre in Washington, DC?
Get comfy and listen in as Hashell Dammitt solves
