While the word "Tats" normally tempts my gag reflex, it is easily allayed with tattooed eye candy like those above. They're cast members in a new theater production about tattoos entitled Tats: The Experience. Writers Kat Reynolds and Colleen Hammond Whitmore have created a play, which includes music, dance, and puppetry, where the main characters are tattoos.

My question is no longer "Why did you get it"? ...now it is "Why did you get it"?

TATS:theexperience

By Cathi Spornick

As a parent of two adult children, ages 23 and 25, I have already had the experience of asking the question: “Why did you get a tattoo where everyone can see it”? “Won’t you regret that?"

As I prepared to go see the play TATS:theexperience, I honestly believed I was going to see a play simply explaining a Millennial sub-culture fad to a Baby Boomer with only 2 ear piercings (one for each ear). I was wrong.
