What do you get when you mash up a musical revue with a game of Trivial Pursuit? 'A Questionable Musical Revue.'

Though we can’t reveal the set list (because that would be cheating), you are guaranteed
to score a fantastic evening at Bethesda Little Theatre’s latest show, Trivia Tonight!: A Questionable Musical Revue.

Director Martin Bestimt describes the show as simply “a musical revue with trivia
questions.” Rousing rounds of trivia are answered with song and dance — songs from
Broadway’s Golden Age to today’s pop favorites.

Such a unique theme and a carefully crafted script lend themselves to a show of
limitless possibilities. “Because trivia is so open ended,” Bestimt explains, “[the show] is
not limited to one genre, or one composer, or one theme. Music can be chosen from
any platform— radio, TV, Broadway, or just general knowledge.”

Who knows, there may even be a chance for some audience participation! So, bring your
thinking caps and see if your musical expertise can contend with the cast of Trivia
Tonight!
