Possibly the best SBXLive show ever, engaging from start to finish, well directed and well executed.

Everyone was welcoming! One member of our party asked about the technique an artist used in the Gallery space and a meta performer gave us a step by step description of the process the artist used to create his cutting boards. Thank you, Mary!
