In the city with an open Friday night. What should I see?

I've had the privilege of Designing seven shows for the MUNY Theatre in St. Louis. Since it's an outdoor venue, there is no flying scenery. The theatre has a unique system of horizontal tracking drops they call "Booms". Given the size of the stage, they are quite large (75'w x 23'h).
Five of the seven shows I've Designed had Main Curtains painted by the MUNY's exceptional Scenic Artists.
This is a skill set I only get to use at this unique venue. Painted Drops have become rare in today's theatrical reality.
H/T to Kendrick Lawson-Knight for his invaluable graphic skills on these pieces.
