Me, too. I can drive there in a (long) day.

Is that the same theatre where BETM appears in early 2013?

No. This is a small venue, unlike the Altria Theater, which seats over 3,000, and is used for touring Broadway shows and concerts, etc., by big name performers. Here's the VA Rep's website, where you can learn more about the venue:

The production of Mame will take place in the November Theatre:
