I love small one-topic museums like the Jell-O Museum. The story of Jell-O points out the importance of marketing.

Over the years people reported strange occurrences of the paranormal kind.
“You coax the blues right out of the horn … you charm the husk right off of the corn….” Ah, the strains of one of Broadway’s most loved musicals, “Mame,” will be flowing through the Frances Marion Brown theatre, beginning July 5 for a two-weekend run.
