“The Shelter did a Christmas show here and if that show were a Christmas present, it was a box-load of funny,” says Laugh Out Loud owner Lillie Frances. “I’ve worked with them over the past few years and they are consistently hilarious. I just had to get them back in the theater in 2012. Don’t just believe me, come see for yourself.”
