See a show on 2nd Sunday, a dark thriller in The Minutes or a Victorious Purlie

It's Parks and Rec meets The Stepford Wives in the hysterical, straight-from-Broadway comedy/mystery THE MINUTES.  History goes missing, along with a city councilman and the minutes from the previous meeting, as a small town city council is forced to confront their beloved town's mysterious past.
