Trivia, behind the scenes clips and videos, and lots of laughs. Tickets are limited, get them here: https://buytickets.at/thestraytheater/1922627
We have a cast and crew favorite on the show today -- Tyson Fountaine, our makeup artist! Tyson's here to talk about the ONLY episode of The Middle to be nominated for an Emmy (ep 309, "The Play"), and it's because of his work!

Plus, we answer more Middle trivia from a fan.
