Sleepy Hollow Halloween Show
Friday October 19 @ 6:30pm
The Sleepy Hollow Halloween Show weaves the characters from Washington Irving's classic story into a new and exciting tale. Designed to be spooky (but not scary), the show begins where the original story leaves off. Actress Kitty Jones involves the audience in a quest to find out who is the Headless Horseman.

This program is sponsored by our Friends as part of our 50th Anniversary celebration.
