Another wonderful note from Rockville Sister City Corporation’s Rotraut Bockstahler, who passed along this event notice for The Finest! She says: “The Mayor of Pinneberg, who visited in 2010 in honor of the 150th anniversary of Rockville was so taken by the performance of The Finest!, that we, the RSCC and our Sister City Pinneberg counterpart have the ambitious goal to bring The Finest! to Pinneberg.” What an awesome trip that will be!
Here are the details.
