Summary

Do we "not" have a surprise for YOU, Dear Guests! Tonight your bewitching host has for you- the amazing story of Romulus, Remus, & Lupercalia, the ancient feast day, and in-the-buff frenzied frolic that brought romance and fertility to lovers for perhaps thousands of years... and we're totally "not" reviving the wild tradition...nor will we tell you exactly where and when ...and what to wear to the celebration, so "don't" listen closely (wink, wink)

Special Thanks to Sounds Like an Earful Music Supply for the amazing music AND sound design.
