Opening the Box

Take five former members of Masquerade Theatre (Houston’s pre-eminent Broadway musical revival company), put them in the space formerly occupied by the zanies of Radio Music Theatre (Houston’s pre-eminent comedy show, now sadly shuttered), turn them loose to create original cabaret evenings of music and comedy, and shake vigorously. You’d probably get something like the Music Box Theater, whose grand opening show is called, appropriately enough, Opening the Box.
