Oh Heather Frost! Have you heard? Don’t you know?
She first found Who’s Holiday! Five Christmasses ago!
She pitched it to Vintage Theatre with sparkle and cheer—
And it’s been their December delight every single year!

Now she’s Who-dancing happy (her grin’s ear to ear!)
To bring it to Louisville Underground this year,
With her very own company—oh what a sight!
A swirl of Who-mischief and warm winter light.

She’s led Spamalot’s madness, Love Perfect Change's sweet sphere,
Love Letters, Almost, Maine, crisp and sincere;
Pippin all shimmer, and HAIR—Who-bare bold flair!
With free-loving hippies and signs in the air.

The Vibrator Play brought her giggles and glory—
Best Comedy ’23! A true Heather story.

And next? First Date!—where hearts flutter and sway,
At Longmont Museum next Valentine’s Day!

And oh! Before she skedaddles back up to Mount Crumpit,
A big Who-thank-you—go on, thump-thump it!
Your giggles and jingles made our night Who-bright,
You powered this show like a holiday light!

If you crave more Who-chaos, more theatre-y cheer,
Hop over to 11AfterTheatre.com—we Who it up all year!
Or send Heather a note (she does read them, tra-la!):
[email protected]—send a scribble, send a squiggle, send a zim-zam-za!
