Pyroflower Radio Hour Episode VIII August 22nd 8PM



Watch for the next Episodes of The Pyroflower Radio Hour, usually at the end of each month. There are twelve in all, you won't want to miss any of them

Beatniks has been going through a sort of facelift. We now have, with the assistance of Hammond Community Theatre, risers for the back row of seating!!  So every seat in the house is a terrific one. Rip and Bonnie have been hard at work painting the risers and floors. Thanks to the extended efforts of the Beatniks Babes shows...we have been able to purchase small tables, for any dinner shows that come our way. We also now have a new heating and air conditioning system to make your theater experience comfortable.
We would like to thank all the many volunteers that help to make this venue a reality.

Now, every Tuesday at 7:00 PM
Writer's Workshop
Writer's Workshop now meets every Tuesday at 7PM at Beatniks. We have heard from many people who would like to be involved with writing skits, comedy, or whatever. Here's you chance to get together with others wanting to explore the same. Comedien Sharon Harbert will oversee the workshop. Come be a part, get your ideas out there. There is NO COST...just brain work.


Friday’s & Saturday’s doors open at 7:00 PM, show at 8:00 PM

Sunday matinee’s, doors open at 1:00 PM, show at 2:00 PM

Plan on being prompt...for beverages, snacks and pastry’s
