FARMINGTON — United Way is once again the beneficiary of the Teachers Lounge Mafia generosity as they perform their annual Christmas mature-audience rated show, “Stale Milk and Sour Cookies.”

No two shows are the same and each relies on audience suggestions or participation on the stage itself, so come to both shows this year. Concessions are available at intermission at each show — milk (not stale) and cookies (not sour).

Show times are 7:30 p.m. Friday, Dec. 14, at the North Church, 118 High St.,  Farmington and 7:30 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 15, AYS Building, 25 Cedar St., Livermore Falls.

Teachers Lounge Mafia Comedy Improv Troupe has been making audiences laugh since 2008. With their mix of traditional improv games, original games and Maine brand hilarity, TLM has been tickling the funny bones of audiences both young and old. Their Stale Milk and Sour Cookies show has benefited United Way of the Tri-Valley Area for the last few years and is a great way to get some much-needed laugh-therapy around the holidays.

Tickets are $10 each and are available at Madore’s Market in West Farmington, Douin’s Market in New Sharon, Riverside QuikStop in Jay, and United Way of the Tri-Valley Area in Farmington. Tickets may also be purchased by calling United Way at 207-778-5048 or visiting www.uwtva.org/give — just choose “Stale Milk and Sour Cookies Improv” from the drop-down box.
