Sgt. Rigsby & His Amazing Silhouettes: A Terrible Price for Whimsy

A disasterous mix of tequila and time travel destroys history as we know it. The only one who can save humanity is young Roscoe Riley, boy inventor. A raucous and bawdy tribute to old-time serial adventure stories, Whimsy is a delightfully refreshing break from too many Nutcrackers, Nativities and Christmas Carols. See the Randy Zebra with your own eyes and discover why people keep coming back for more.
